or the next

I had a stroke 4 1/2 yrs ago and did not have insurance. I could not work for months, and when I finally could, I worked part time, and went further into credit card debt. For the next three years I tried my best to catch up, not only on my $60,000+ hospital stay, but all of my doctors bills, not to ...mention my credit cards, which I lived off of. A friend suggested I look into bankruptcy, something I never considered before. I took the advice and had a free consultation with Stuart Swanson of your firm. One hour later, I was convinced that was my best solution to actually be able to start a new life, debt free. My case was just recently dismissed and I immediately had a load of stress lifted off of my mind. Stuart walked me through the whole process, with all of the possibilities of outcomes. He explained that I was a great candidate for chapter 13, and would be able to begin reestablishing my credit as soon as it was over. I already have two credit card and another auto loan offer. Stuart also accompanied and prepared me for my hearing which really weighed on my mind. Having him there with me helped me greatly, and coming from somebody with high blood pressure that actually suffered a stroke from it, that was huge. Thank you Mr. Swanson for your professionalism and dedication to my case. I can now wake up and fall asleep without first thinking of my money problems. I will suggest you and your firm to anybody I know that may be in the same situation. Thanks again!

Highly Recommended Tremendous Service

My experience with Stuart Swanson, and the rest of the team was exceptional! I visited multiple offices before I met with Stuart. I could tell from my first interaction that I was valued, and I wasn't just another case. Stuart paid close attention to the details of my situation, gave me realistic ...expectations, and they were spot on. The team that helped were timely, friendly, and highly effective! I would recommend Stuart and Cutler & Asdociates to anyone who is in need of help. They take very negative situations and make it easy for you to try and get a resolution! Thank you for your services!!

Expectations exceeded, excellent team, excellent service

David and his staff exceeded my expectations. From the beginning, everything was explained in simple terms which anyone can relate to, and I felt at ease knowing that I had someone on my side that would do all he could to help me. After seeing my savings and retirement accounts dwindle down with no e...nd in sight due mostly to the bad real estate situation, I decided to go see David. He had helped another family member get out of a bad financial situation and I decided that I was not going to be able to get out of my bad situation without assistance. What a difference a year makes! I have a fresh start, and now, I have seen the light at the end of the tunnel. Ina was present at my 1st meeting, downtown, and I knew right then and there, that I had a good team behind me, which gave me confidence that I would get very good results and be in a much better place financially down the road. I am already seeing my financial situation go in the direction that had hoped it would. Anna, kept me up to date on everything and when I had a question, she would respond very quickly. I never had to ask for anything more than once. That is what you call great service. One regret that I have is that I waited to long. If you are unsure of your situation and the different options that you have, go see David. You will be glad that you did.

Surprisingly Surprising

I contacted them for some help and possible retention for litigation on an issue I was having with a car that I recently purchased. I was contacted by Stuart Swanson. He was great. He offered me several options which included retaining him and his firm for services and just his basic advise. Turns ou...t when you lawyer up dealerships become extremely responsive. He advised me on how to word my email and literally in minutes I had a phone call from the dealership to take care of my issues. I was so very happy with the level of service I was given and I wasn't even a paying client. If (God Forbid) I ever do need an attorney...this would be the first firm I contact. Thank you very much for everything.

Simply the best

I filed bankruptcy in 2014. Stuart was the absolute best! He was always there to answer all my questions and concerns. David was great as well. They treat you like family. I recommended them to my Uncle as well. Stuart really went above and beyond to meet with him at his house since he doesn't drive.... It will be a year in March and I am already building my credit back up. I have gotten store cards (even to the stores I filed on my bankruptcy) and a Visa. I would recommend them to anyone. They not only know their stuff but they treat you like a person and not just another case.
