Mr. Clapp showed strength and a great deal of expertise while also being approachable and reasonable. I felt confident that Charles maintained my best interest and never lacked confidence in his ability to effectively resolve my case.
The key components that made Mr. Clapp the ideal legal representation for the services needed were that he was knowledgeable, had great communication, responsive, patient and his perseverance. I, without a doubt, recommend Charles and would utilize his services as needed in the future.
Mr Clapp represented me exceptionally in the past and has made himself available for council and provided valuable resources that have allowed me to thrive. He’s humanized the process and destroys the negative perception of lawyers. Many thanks!

Thankful
Mr. Clapp was there for me when I was a difficult and dangerous situation. He made sure I was taken care of and I was safe. After several years, I needed some paperwork so I had to call him. I called and he had it to me in 2 minutes. Thank you Charles for everything.

Immediate Relief
I had looked up several Bankruptcy attorney’s and Charles Capp jumped right out to me in reading his reviews.
I felt a complete sense of ease and relief within the first 20min of sitting and meeting with Mr.Capp for my free consultation. Mr. Capp’s knowledge along with a tremendous amount of patients gave me line by line on how filing Chapter 7 would be from start to finish. I never felt pressured in making a decision about moving forward with his services. Im glad that I did. Mr. Capp did all the necessary paper work and followed up with me by email and phone call. I would highly recommend his services to anyone struggling with financial hardship.

Excellent Bankruptcy attorney who is a strong advocate for his clients and isn't afraid of trials
After consulting with a large Atlanta-area Bankruptcy firm, where I spent about 2 minutes with an attorney and it was immediately clear I'd be merely a number, and another local attorney who gave me not much longer I came across Mr Clapp. I'm incredibly grateful that I did! I had a relatively simple Chapter 7 case, and the previous attorneys I'd spoken to were quite happy to take it on, after giving me a very few minutes of their time. In contrast, at our consultation Charles spent over an hour and a half with me, going over all of my details, including whether or not filing now would be my best choice, not just assuming it was a given. Once we decided it was, he proceeded to explain that he recommended we redeem my vehicle, getting me out of more my car loan more than 2 years early for a reasonable sum which I could afford, and that he would get rid of a lien secured against personal property. None of the other attorneys I spoke with mentioned either option, suggesting only reaffirming both loans. Further Charles had no hesitation in pursuing action against a creditor who repeatedly violated the bankruptcy stay. While he was quite willing to take the violations to trial, he also clearly explained the pros, cons, and risks of going to court vs settling, the potential damages and costs involved, and gave his honest opinion of settling, including his reasons, which allowed me to make a very well informed choice. He communicates clearly and responds to questions in a reasonable time frame, and on the one occasion I had difficulty reaching him due to issues with his new telephone system he made a point of explaining the problem, apologizing, and promptly ensuring I had an alternate way to reach him. All in all I have no hesitation recommending Mr Clapp to anyone, and in fact have referred several colleagues to him. If you need a bankruptcy attorney in the Atlanta area, Mr Clapp should certainly be your first choice.

Thankful to have heard about Charles Clapp!
I heard from several co-workers about Mr. Clapp. I was being garnished and really didn't have enough money to pay for regular bills for my kids. I went to Mr. Clapp. He was actually able to get me some of the money back, in addition to stopping the garnishment. It was a huge relief for me and I am absolutely grateful to him. I highly recommend Mr. Clapp.

Debt free, finally. Hire him.
Charles did a great job with my case. Nobody goes in to bankruptcy wanting to be there, but I was at a point where it had to happen. I was referred to him by another bankruptcy attorney at a large Atlanta firm who didn't want my case because it wasn't "cookie cutter." I'm very happy worked for me and I will be recommending him to anyone I know who needs bankruptcy help.

Fantastic Bankruptcy Attorney
I came to Mr. Clapp by referral with a complicated case involving both personal and business debts that were out of control. Mr. Clapp evaluated the situation and gave me options that I was not even aware of. He knows his stuff, executed flawlessly, and I have been able to start over. I highly recommend Charles Clapp if you have debt or bankruptcy issues. Listen to his advice, he knows his stuff. I consulted with several other bankruptcy attorneys prior to retaining Mr. Clapp, and they did not have the same breadth of knowledge that Mr. Clapp brought to my case.

One of the Best Bankruptcy Lawyers in Atlanta
My wife and I had tons of information from other lawyers in the area, however we found Charles online and decided to give him a call. He was very nice and we briefly gave him a summary of what we were going through. We went in for consultation and was very pleased. We're no in the process of getting all our documents over to him to get the process started. He and his staff are making this really easy. We thought is was going to be lots of running around, but no. I cant wait to be free of debit!!! Thanks again Charles and staff.
