Great Law Firm ! Swift & communicative ! I appreciate all they have done for my business! I strongly recommend them to anyone starting a small business

Very Easy to talk with. Knowledgeable and non-condescending. Consider me a lifelong client and referral source!

After months of considering filing Chapter 7 on my own, I've finally decided to go with an attorney. After calling several offices in NC, I was pleased to speak with Attorney Derek R. Caldwell who made a great case for why going with an attorney offers a greater chance for Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing success. This attorney was pleasant to speak with, patient with my many questions, very professional, and with fees on the lower end of the spectrum many would appreciate. I think the professional assistance of Attorney Derek R. Caldwell would be of great benefit to many. Thank you.

We contracted Derek to guide us through a loan negotiation. he was easy to work with, very professional, and clearly worked well with the banks attorneys. We worked out a good settlement with the bank with timely payments that worked best for our situation. Derek did a great job, we would recommend him to everyone.

Mr. Caldwell, is a good person lawyer who on day one helped me with my chapter 7. he was very supportive and helpful with my Bankruptcy. he helping me get through.

Extremely open, honest, dependable and kind. Derek has been everything you could hope for in a lawyer. I filed for Bankruptcy in 2019 and he is the best lawyer I have ever had. There was a filing issue with my bankruptcy case and the Durham County Clerk said I would have to come to court on Monday. There was no way for me to make it to court that day and I was extremely distraught. But Derek called down there personally and resolved the matter. Even though I only paid him a flat fee for a simple Bankruptcy, I felt like he treated me like a high paying client. Derek if you are reading this thank you so much, you've single handedly changed my formerly low opinion of lawyers.

I was in a tough situation and did not know who to turn to for help. So many people had given me incorrect or bad information that I also did not know who I could trust. I prayed about it and a few days later came across Derek's information. He was always honest and upfront with all information, gave me straight answers to my many questions, and explained every detail until I understood the process I would need to go through. I did not even hesitate in allowing him to legally represent me. He was very easy to talk to and responded to emails and phone calls quickly. I strongly encourage any individuals that are in a tough financial situation and are unsure of what to do next to contact Derek Caldwell.

Thank you attorney Caldwell for your prompt opinion. Your explanation was very clear without second guessing. I wish you much success and happiness.

I went to Attorney after having a great deal of problems with my Bankruptcy situation. This guy is intelligent and has a lot of integrity. He saved me thousands of dollars by the advice that he gave me. Not only was I able to get out of debt a lot sooner and now I am starting to live a quality life but it has opened the doors to other things such as a better place to live, jobs, etc by beginning to get the CH 13 converted to a Ch 7 and discharged. I wish I could give him 10 stars. He is absolutely honest and trustworthy. Please do yourself a favor and hire him. The only reason I did not hire him was because I had paid an attorney already. I wish I had met him first because he would have been hired!!!!

Very pleased with Mr. Caldwell's service. He communication was clear and provided me with a solution. Would highly recommend.

From the very first phone call and initial meeting, all the way through the Discharge, I was always very impressed with Derek's personal attention to me, my situation, and his knowledge and dedication to my case. His down to Earth personality combined with his legal professionalism was the exact opposite of I expected to find in a personal bankruptcy attorney. In fact, my biggest fear in placing that very first call to begin with was that before I met Derek, the only insight I had into bankruptcy was through those cheesy TV ads in the middle of the night from other lawyers. And those type of ads simply gave me the impression of having to go out and hire a reality show character for handling bankruptcy, rather than a professional lawyer who would be committed to me personally. Well folks, look no further...Derek is as real and as good as they get! I contacted him based on the AVVO reviews below, and that's why I'm writing one myself. I can say without a doubt, he is deserving of the absolute highest rating! He is caring of your situation and dedicated to his client. He is on a first name basis with you and your spouse, all while returning phone calls and emails in lightning speed. Anything I ever asked him he had a detailed answer for in record time. If I had a question or wanted information about a certain creditor, he picked up the phone and contacted the creditor immediately. I never went more than an hour without getting a response from Derek, and he never once let me down when it came to his knowledge and commitment to my fresh start. Amazingly, what I assumed on day one would be a 5-year dragged out process with a Chapter 13, he was able to get me a Chapter 7 discharge in only 3 months! On top of that, I'm still in my home and still driving my vehicle. I lost absolutely nothing with regards to my assets, and I have one person to thank for this fresh start in life - my attorney - Derek Caldwell!! Call him today, set up an appointment, and hire him on the spot! Trust me, you won't be sorry! Thanks again, Derek!

Mr. Caldwell handled my bankruptcy case recently. Before hiring him, I had already met with 3 other attorneys. I was totally confused. When I met with Mr. Caldwell, he was so informative, knowledgable, and personable. He's highly professional, but also kind and nonjudgemental. I was always able to get in touch with him quickly if I had a question. He was generous with his time and clear in his explanations. He made a potentially dreadful process far less traumatic than it could have been. He's such a nice person, and an excellent attorney. I recommend him without reservation!
