Highly Recommended

Mrs. Heather Culp and her staff Ms. Cindy Baker were very courteous and of the highest character. All communication and interaction were handled professionally and timely. I could not have asked for better representation or knowledge of the law. No details were overlooked. I was extremely pleased and... impressed with their services and the outcome. I highly recommend them.

Highly Recommend

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.

The Best of the Best!

Heather is not only a brilliant attorney, but also a thoughtful and caring person. A rare jewel! She helped me find the best solution to a serious financial problem and ensured the best outcome by using her skill, knowledge and experience. Her courtroom presence is respected. This really put me at ...ease in an uneasy situation. I would recommend Heather to family and friends without any hesitation. She and Cindy (her assistant) are a force to be reckoned with!

Expert Attorney and Staff

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.

Avvo Rating

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.
