My Shero!

Heather Culp and Cindy Baker saved me. After moving to Charlotte, due to circumstances beyond my control, I was forced to file bankruptcy. Heather did all of the hard work and all I had to do was sign a contract and pay my trustee on time. If you too are in a position and have to file bankruptcy, if ...you follow Heather's instructions, open a pre-paid credit card, and pay your trustee and credit card on time, I guarantee by the time you finish your bankruptcy claim in 5 years, your credit score will be 650+ or more! Thank you, Heather! Thank you, Cindy! You're the best!

BEST OPTION

FIRST TIME APLYING FOR BANKRUPTCY (CHAPTER 7). BETTER RESULTS WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN IN THE HANDS OF MRS CULP AND MISS CINDY. THEIR LEGAL EXPERIENCE GAVE ME CONFIDENCE. DO NOT DOUBT WHEN YOU NEED HELP OF THEM.

Highly Recommend

I started looking into bankruptcy options with another attorney but didnt feel comfortable with that person at all. So I found Heather Culp online and made an appointment. She and her paralegal Cindy were awesome from the very first meeting. I felt like she understood my situation and provided the... guidance and advice and counsel I needed. Chapter 13 was the option I went with and I felt supported and taken care of every step of the way. Heather is very professional and also has a caring attitude with her clients. This was a very difficult time in my life and I am so glad I got through it with the counsel of Heather! I highly recommend her!!

Saved from an "Impossible" Situation

We had no idea what to do so we asked local attorneys, who were also friends, who would they recommend? The name that kept coming up was Heather Culp and her paralegal,Cindy. We spoke with her over the phone and then had an initial consult. She took that hour to listen to us, reviewed a few of the do...cuments and contracts concerning our sinking business and the personally guaranteed landlord contract. She then went over what the possible solutions and outcomes might be. She came up with a plan to get us out of a quarter million dollar exposure. Over a period of 6 months or so, she and Cindy worked with us and the opposing large corporate legal team to reach a settlement for an amount much less than we had thought we were going to have to pay. We were elated with the results and thanks to Heather and Cindy have begun to rebuild our financial life much sooner than anticipated. Great results from Heather and Cindy!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
