Catered to my needs.

Kevin and his team helped me through everything, I live in Evans, co and really couldn't make it to Denver for everything that needed to finish. I was able to do over the phone conversations as well as email (response within 24 hours, some times sooner) was able to fax all my paperwork. Had an attorn...ey with me at my trustee meeting. Again very helpful and flexible!

Very happy with the legal services I received

I interviewed with many bankruptcy firms and decided to hire Kevin Heupel at Heupel Law to handle my bankruptcy. There were some very specific issues that I needed to have handled and Kevin was great at explaining the process and then letting me decide which way I wanted to go. He wasn't pushy and wa...s very understanding about the situation and my needs. He is a very professional lawyer and I would recommend him to anyone needing help with their financial problems.

Unresponsive! Untrustworthy!

I came to this law firm in hopes of receiving assistance in an immigration case for a K-1 Visa. I paid them upfront. The next day I contacted them to let them know that my fiancé changed her mind and no longer wished to proceed. I contacted the paralegal that I had worked with in the firm to let her ...know of this and I had asked her for a refund since the paperwork had not even been started on the case and nothing has been filed, she did let me know that it usually takes a month to process the refund, to which I understood. A month passed by and I had not received anything, I became concerned and called the firm and left them a voicemail and received no response. I then went on and emailed the paralegal and she said that Mr. Heupel is the one that is responsible for issuing refunds and she said that she would forward my email to him. I waited a couple of days hoping to get some answers, but received nothing. I decided to drive down to the firm and speak to her and hopefully Mr. Heupel, unfortunately the only person that I managed to speak with was the Office Manager who informed me that Mr. Heupel is in court, but he would pass down my information to him as soon as he sees him. I eventually did get an email from Mr. Heupel, who had informed me that he was in court all this time, but will issue the check to me this week. It is now two weeks later and no refund. I called and left a voicemail along with an email and still no response. All in all it is a total of two months that have passed by and nothing. I doubt that I will receive anything from these people, I would like to advise anyone looking for assistance from Heupel Law to look somewhere else or else you will find yourself with less cash in your pocket.

TERRIBLE!!! Find another firm

They filed the wrong Chapter bankruptcy. Filed it on the wrong date "accidently" (OOps-they were sorry!) which made me have to pay the trustee A LOT of money un-necessarily. They rarely return calls and e-mails. The lawyers never reviewed the paperwork so even what was filed (and re-filed) it was ...wrong. We had to re-do the paper-work 3 times because they filled it out wrong and we never changed what we turned in ... they just couldn't read our type written words apparently??? The Lawyers that actually meet with you and represent you in court don't know the law and 2nd guessed themselves constantly. Also, don't think you'll get the guy that wrote the book (Kevin Heupel) ... yes it's his firm, but secretaries and what seems to bee 1st year lawyers do the work. This was by far the most frustrating and costly mistake I think I've made. Never have I experienced such disregard for people in a lawyer office.
