Excellent Service

David Cutler was a great attorney. I had a wonderful and smooth experience with him. He was very straightforward, detailed, honest and helpful. I loved his payment plans and the way the Bankruptcy process was handled by the firm and the staff. The process was quick and easy. I will recommend him to ...anyone and my African Community. Thank you for doing a great job.

Swimming in a Nightmare of Debt

Filing for bankruptcy is a very personal decision to come to grips with. Knowing that we had to do this in order to move forward financially, but being in denial about being in this position in the first place, we contacted David. The writing was on the wall and David walked us through the steps to... file for bankruptcy. He contacted our creditors and put a stop to the nightmare we were swimming in. We had to take a couple of minor classes on finances and financial responsibility. We created a spreadsheet of creditors we were filing against. The whole process was pretty smooth. David helped facilitate the process and we felt confident in his ability to help us manage anything that might have come up. We recommend him highly.

An Ever-Grateful Client

Being a legal assistant for many years, I know how important it is to choose an attorney you are comfortable with, one who is both knowledgeable and personable. Stuart Swanson filed and seamlessly guided me through the bankruptcy process. His firm’s fees are reasonable, and I would not hesitate to... recommend Cutler & Associates to others.

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!

Truly Amazing

My wife had consulted with David Cutler approximately 5 years ago and had nothing but excellent things to say about him and the entire firm. When the time came for me to file bankruptcy, I contacted the law firm and worked with Stuart Swanson. Stuart also provided amazing service and guidance making ...the entire process less stressful than I ever could have imagined. I just wish I wouldn't have put it off as long as I did.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
