Stuart Swanson

We hired Cutler & Associates back in Jan 2012. We had our meeting with Stuar Swanson and that's the day our life's took a turn for the better. We lost our jobs, our homes and our cars but Stuart explained that we can get back on our feet with a fresh start. The process for chapter 7 was scary at fir...st you, hear that once you file that's it you will never have good credit or get a home. I am here to tell you that's not true we file B/K and are moving into a house 2 year later and secured a car loan with in 6 months. Our credit history was great before we filed BK and it has been even now. Our experience with finance companies is they are judge-mental. I can tell you pay your debits on time every time after BK or you will have a hard time getting financed. We owe this to the great work from Stuart Swanson and how he explain what we needed to do. Great advice great lawyer, Hire the firm Cutler and Associates you will be glad you did.

Before you sign with any other attorney, make the effort to talk with Cutler and Assoc...

I have met a few attorneys in my time, but none as professional and straight forward, matter a fact as Stuart Swanson! He is extremely aware of his field and provides you a very well thought out plan. I didn't realize just how good he was until the day I had to appear in court and I watched other ...attorneys function. Stuart had me totally prepared and ready for the session and things went 100% to his plan. I have recommended Stuart several times already and would suggest to anyone before you consider another Bankruptcy attorney, at the very least talk to Stuart. There is a difference between attorneys and how they treat you.... don't make a mistake by using someone less than this firm.

Stuart and Cutler and Associates, Ltd. are awesome

I was referred to Stuart Swanson by a friend back in June of 2005 for my bankruptcy and it was a smooth sailing for me. I've been using him since then. In 2007 I used him for my divorce. I remember expressing my worries on how I did not want my divorce to drag. He advised me on a couple of issues... to ensure a smooth divorce and sure enough it went smoother than I expected. My ex-husband did not show up to court and I was granted my divorce. During my marriage I felt into a big debt and I had no choice but to file for bankruptcy again 8 years later. IN FACT just yesterday he sent me my discharge papers!! I He's has a great sense of humor and a really cool layer to work with. I have to say he knows his stuff and most importantly he works with you to make things happen. I can't say that about to many lawyers. I have referred him to many of my friends and they've referred him as well. Having a great lawyer is like having a great dentist lool. It's hard to find a lawyer you can trust and really depend on. I'm just happy I've found someone I can rely on when I need some great legal advice and representation. Dealing with legal issues and courts can take a toll on you so you have to make sure you're in good hands. Even their paralegal staff is great. I definitely would recommend Stuart Swanson for all your legal matters.

Stuart Cutler gave me a fresh start

I was very nervous and apprehensive about filing bankruptcy. I did not know where to begin. I was also extremely concerned about my credit afterwards. Stuart answered all of my questions and went above and beyond. I am forever grateful. Also, it has been just over a year and my credit score has ...gone from the very low 500's to the mid-high 600's in a very short time. I have received 2 credit cards (which I did not have to pay a deposit on) and several offers which I declined. It truly has been a fresh start. Thank you!

Hire them!

Realizing that your only option is Bankruptcy is one of the hardest things I can imagine. It happened to me. Thankfully, I got a recommendation for Stuart Swanson at Cutler & Associates. He's very friendly, easy to talk to, knows the law, and is completely thorough. Stuart went above and beyond what ...I ever expected from any attorney. He made the entire process go smoothly, and I feel like a giant weight has been lifted. Things are better now. I would highly recommend Stuart to anybody that needs an attorney. As a matter of fact, he's the only attorney I would ever recommend.
