Heather W. Culp

We owned a business that should have been filed under LLC but was a Chapter S and we should not have personally guaranteed the leases we had. When there were discrepancies with the Landlords when it came time to renew, in each case the ownership of the spaces had changed. The options were not guarant...eed and the rents were impossible to make. Our additional location was under construction and the contractor walked off the job just days before the final inspection. All these financial factors fell back on us personally. Our personal attorney recommended Heather Culp to help us walk through our financial and legal options. She sat us down in the initial visit and reviewed the options. We worked with her assistant Cynthia and developed an overall status of our finances and next steps. We met again to decide on our best avenue with our business failing as it was. She took time, handled each legal situation separately. She was professional and thorough. She helped us put together a lengthly financial status with forms that she normally uses and adapted them to our situation. Her assistant Cynthia helped us with research. She kept in contact with us. Together they walked us through the entire process with support, assistance and followup at every turn. I could not have felt more professionally and personally satisfied.

Heather Culp, of Essex Richards Law Firm is an extremely knowledgeable and professional attorney. From the beginning, she patiently explained the bankruptcy process to me step by step. She did a wonderful job on keeping me updated on all procedures so I always knew what was going on as the case pro...gressed, and what the next steps were and time frame it would happen. Heather and her wonderful paralegal Cindy, were always available for direction and guidance when I needed them and always responded in a timely manner. Cindy is courteous, organized, responsive and always follows through with what she says she’s going to do. Therefore, I highly recommend Heather and her staff to anyone in need of a highly skilled attorney.

Heather Culp and her legal assistant Cindy Baker made the entire process of filing and surviving bankruptcy less of a nightmare than it could have been. Heather offered great advice during our initial consultation, and walked us through every step of the process from start to finish. She and Cindy ...were always available to us when any questions and or problems arose, and took care of every detail for us from the get go, so we were confidant that everything would be ok once we followed their instructions. You won't regret retaining Heather Culp!

Two words not often used to describe a lawyer. Heather & Cindy were terrific in guiding us through a difficult and lengthy process. Anytime I had questions they were answered quickly and in non legal terms. I highly recommend Heather and Cindy if you are in a tough spot even if you need a consultatio...n.

It was difficult for my husband and me to face the reality of bankruptcy. So Heather's compassion and reassurance was just as important to us as her expert knowledge of bankruptcy. She was great! Heather and her paralegal, Cynthia Baker, were meticulously organized and clearly explained the process... and all of the options. They worked very hard through all the details and were very prompt in communicating and handling every aspect of our case. Heather just seems instinctively professional and is genuinely caring. Her way is to help you feel at ease and confident, which makes the experience much less stressful. We highly recommend Heather and her staff for anyone going through bankruptcy.
