They made the bankruptcy process seamless and very easy for us especially during Covid when we couldn’t see anyone in person. Richard handled all of our issues and was very responsive when we had questions. Richard knows the laws and we felt very confident he had our best interests in mind. At a time when things were very uncertain and stressful, Richard made us feel at ease going through the whole process. From first meeting to finish it was a smooth process. We would recommend Richard to anyone who needs a bankruptcy attorney who really knows his stuff.Ben Johnson2021-05-13I was in a very tough situation with cancer and not being able to work. I came to the decision nervously that I had to file bankruptcy because I would never ever catch up between hospitals Bill's, credit cards and certain Bill's I wouldn't be able to catch up in a lifetime. From the very start Richard and Trudy were very kind, understanding, professional and always super responsive. They mad a very tough decision and tough situation so very painless. There fees were so good (not what I expected) and entire communication were exactly as they explained and Trudy emailed me daily and kept me in the know of absolutely everything. She responded everytime within less than a hour and most the times immediately. Again for something I hated that I had to do they were fed fantastic all the way around with good fees, excellent communication and really they handled everything making it so easy on me and I cant thank them enough! If you are in tough situation needing bankruptcy help I give them 5 stars and cannot recommend them enough, they are absolutely wonderful people and great to work with. Thank you cape fear debt relief (Richard and Trudy) so much for what you did for me!!! Ben JohnsonLorie Smith2021-03-05AWESOME experience! After meeting another Wilmington bankruptcy attorney by phone after seeing his ad for a book about bankruptcy, I just didn't trust his cookie cutter recommendation when I received his court paperwork in the mail. I felt I needed a second opinion and SO GLAD I got one! As it turns out, the cookie cutter recommendation from the other firm was not the right solution for my situation at all. I found Richard Cook/Cape Fear Debt Relief through a Google search. I met with him at his office and I felt comfortable the minute we sat down. If you need a bankruptcy attorney let me save you the search time and guesswork... Richard and his paralegal Trudy are easy to talk to, knowledgeable, efficient, and nonjudgmental. If you want a true bankruptcy expert hire Richard Cook and don't be embarrassed about your financial trouble- get help! This firm is wonderful!Chase Faircloth2020-08-20Mr. Cook and Stacy made everything so easy from start to finish! They are quick to respond and truly make you feel at ease with the process. I would recommend them to anyone.Olivia Waggoner2020-07-13I filed a chapter 7 case with this office. It was a great experience in an otherwise awful time in my life. Not sure on a previous review saying his staff asked for things, as a lot of items are required to file, but I knew that. I think the staff is great, I have recommended this firm to others who are finding themselves in a crisis due to our current pandemic.Sonja Andersen2020-01-14I was in a terrible place emotionally , I had made many financial mistakes and with Hurricane Florence, that really seemed to frost the cake. I didn’t know what to do, but a friend recommended I call Cape Fear Debt Relief and speak with Mr. Cook. I was embarrassed.. but he and his team soon put my fears to rest and assured me they could help. I was so relieved, and I was finally able to sleep at night without worry. Every visit was a pleasure, I was treated respectfully and all my questions at any time were answered. If you are in a similar situation don’t wait. Call and speak with Mr. Cook.
