Social security law involves the intricacies of the American public benefits system that provides social security income. Social security is funded by taxes you pay when you are working.

Trusts 5%

A trust is an arrangement whereby someone owns and manages money or property for another person's benefit. Like a guardianship, a trustee has decision-making authority over the trust property, but no court is involved in the trustee's action–the person who creates the trust defines the scope of the trustee's power. There are many different trust types, including probate trusts, income trusts, spendthrift trusts, and educational trusts.

Failed to Bring my File to Court

Cullen was hired based on a referral from Tessa. I had been assaulted by my spouse, who was a former special forces operative and had tried to strangled me to death with our kids in the house. I had very little experience with attorneys. I was in shock and had no family to support me. Leading up to ...my permanent protection order hearing, I offered over and over if we needed witnesses or documents submitted. There was the woman who had met me at the hospital. The officer who made the arrest and others who had been involved. Cullen was dismissive and said it wasn't needed. She also never informed me of my rights as a victim of a violent crime. My assailant mocked me as I shakily gathered my belongings after going through security. When Cullen arrived for my hearing, she failed to even bring my file. She was disheveled and had nothing prepared. She asked if she could borrow my personal file. She told me to call my 19 year old daughter, who was watching her younger siblings and ask her to come testify. She scrambled to find a sitter and get there asap. A DV advocate who had worked with me was there for another hearing and on the spot, Cullen asked her to testify. It was completely haphazard. The judge even commented that Cullen was unprepared and offered to extend the protection order but stated that there had not been enough evidence presented by Cullen to justify a permanent order. I paid this woman a substantial amount and she failed to even show up with my file. It was an awful experience.

From the first conversation.

The very first conversation I had with this lady not just showed me a flicker of hope but also that I'm not as invisible as I feel. She has shown me that someone will listen and someone will hear you. I have no doubts in my mind that this lady will represent me to the capitol letter of her name as l...ong as I show that I am worth fighting for. That 1 star review I read comes from anonymous... Seems like you were a coward afraid to fight for yourself or even let your name be known. I hope you learn and grow from this and make better decisions in the future.

Horrible your better off representing yourself.

Horrible representation used her for my divorce and she had her own agenda did not listen when I explained safety concerns regarding my ex and our child. Stated that I was not able to get back child support which was wrong. Did not advocate at all or give rebuttal arguements. Do not use her you wo...uld be better off representing yourself and saving money .

My champion!

I hired Ms. Wheelock after interviewing a half dozen other attorneys in the Colorado Springs. I had a lengthy and bitter divorce and custody battle. I hired her because of her extensive experience and compassion she had for my children. Many times we butted heads and she gave it to me straight but... she prepared me for court and did everything she possibly could to make sure I was comfortable. She was focused on what was best for my children and in the end we accomplished what we needed to. The opposing attorney didn't know what hit him. I will continue to use Ms. Wheelock and would recommend her to anyone.

Great Lawyer, great person.

Cullen Wheelock excelled beyond her duty in representing me and my cousin in two cases, one of which went to trial. Our cases were not even within her listed legal field...our case was fiduciary based. She'll work herself to the bone for you to get the job done. Highly intelligent, she figures out ne...w and creative ways to make sure the good person wins, and that means her clients win because her integrity only allows her to represent people on the right side. She recently has had her appeals brief published in a law magazine and was a judge for 17 years before being a lawyer so she has a judge brain and a lawyer brain...a perfect mix. Highly recommend.
