Trusted Family Advocate

I hired Aaron Culp to represent me in an incredibly complicated divorce and child custody case. He was kind while being honest, and professional while being caring. He always respected my opinion, but guided me to see the bigger picture. He has such an incredible knowledge base and rather than talkin...g down to me because of it, he graciously taught me so much about family law. His expertise about family law, the court system, and what legal solutions would be best for my family drove him to fight for my case in an unprecedented way. I had every confidence in his ability to take on my complex case. But he didn’t just add it to his caseload, he listened to every recording, read every screenshot, and answered every phone call with every minute question that I had. That was by far, the most difficult period of my life and I don’t know if I could have kept going if he wasn’t there through it all. I had the privilege of being able to work with both Aaron and his partner, John Hennan. I don’t know many people who actually enjoyed meeting with their lawyers, but I legitimately did. They consulted with each other consistently and thoroughly and always kept me in the loop. They are respectful, communicative, and powerhouses in the courtroom. I genuinely respect them as utmost professionals. I have already recommended them to a close friend and they will absolutely be the first people I call if the need ever arises again. I feel blessed to have had the honor of working with attorneys of their caliber and I will forever be grateful.

Brilliant and unparalleled!

I have used several lawyers and grew up with a few as well but when I needed a family law attorney, I called Aaron Culp. I was treated with the utmost respect by both he and his staff during every interaction. I felt completely at ease while outlining my case as my needs and requests were met. Aaron ...is diligent and works tirelessly as he seems to know every facet of his field. He is as kind and understanding with his clients as he is tenacious and fierce in the courtroom. He does not mince words and make no mistake; he will redirect you when you are off track in a very blunt and direct manner. He answered my every question and concern in such a way that I felt completely confident each time we were called to stand before the judge. I definitely would not want to be on the opposing council with Mr. Culp on the other side! I have recommended Mr. Aaron Culp to others I have known to be in need and will certainly continue to do so. Thank you, Aaron, for all you have done and continue to do for me and my family!

Unprofessional

I hired this company to deal my divorce case that was eventually assigned to Aaron Culp. The case was easy one since my ex did not fight over anything. But whenever I tried to contact about my questions I never got any response in timely manner. He never explained me the whole process. I was surpris...ed that he didn’t even care to talk to me after the case was dismissed and and his assistant replied me about the final closing of the case. I expected in my hard time to rely on someone who I wish would be in my side . I never felt he works for me in my favor even though I hired him for my case. Eventually I realized that he was stretching the case for longer duration without any reason so that he gets paid more. I don’t recommend this lawyer for any divorce related case.

I am very sorry to hear that this client had a less than excellent experience at Hennan Culp. This client posted anonymously so I cannot comment on the specifics of their experiences. Part of our firm culture is to always invite one-on-one client feedback at any stage of their representation and we extend the same invitation to this client. We also pride ourselves on always zealously advocating for our client's best interests, responding timely to client questions and concerns, and above all, fair billing practices. If we have failed to meet those expectations, we want to know about it so we can improve our processes and provide the best possible client experiences in the future.

Forever my go to.

I had a very messy case of trying to gain custody of my sister. She was 15 when we put in our petition. He showed enthusiasm for such a technically difficult case and put all possible effort into it. It was bery easy to get in contact with him leading up to and after court. While in court, he had don...e all of the needed leg work as well as took great notes during the questioning. I was very uncertain about the whole hiring a lawyer processes and more so if they would properly represent and respect me in this type of case. I will certainly hire him again for any family law issues.

The best family lawyer in Austin!

I want to start by saying Aaron is truly amazing, both as an attorney and as a person. Our case was highly unusual and surprised pretty much anyone who became involved with it. Initially, my step brother had hired Aaron as his attorney to obtain guardianship of his teenage sister (my step sister). To... make a long story short, myself and my fiancee were appointed managing conservators even though I had only offered up my testimony for the case. Going forward, my fiancee and I were both lost and confused as we have NEVER dealt with sort of situation before in our lives. We kept in contact with Aaron and immediately felt comfortable and safe with him. He was very personable and helped us more than I can put into words. He was kind, patient, and understanding of our situation and took the time to explain everything in terms that we could understand. We ended up hiring him as our attorney (since we needed one at that point!) and he was able to get our child custody/child support case mediated and settled within a few months of the initial hearing that my strep brother set into motion. Aaron is even working with us financially since we were thrown into this new and unknown world of family law. I would recommend Aaron to anyone who is involved in an unpleasant family related lawsuit. He will do everything in his power to win your case and you can clearly see how passionate Aaron is about his work. Thank you Aaron for helping me and my family through a truly difficult and grueling time, we couldn't have done it without you!
