A smooth, successful, and low-drama divorce, just as hoped!

After making the decision to divorce, I met with a few lawyers and the decision to hire Chris was an easy one. Upon meeting him I felt instantly at ease, like he genuinely cared, and I appreciated that he was respectful of the way that my ex-husband and I wanted to conduct our divorce — as non-conten...tiously as possible. Chris was responsive and efficient, helping me understand the process and guiding me through a successful filing and court hearing. I'm grateful to be on the other side of it, and have Chris to thank for making it a smooth and low-drama process. I met with him a couple months before making my final divorce decision, which was also helpful for my process; if you're in the market or even on the fence, reach out!

Thank you

It’s not in my nature to leave a review. However, in this instance, I was compelled to do so. Prior to the resolution of my case, I shared with my friends and relatives how pleased I was with my representation. Attorney Heberg demonstrated all the qualities I believe you look for as a client. He was... knowledgeable and there was a genuine caring and easiness about him that helped calm emotional situations. He listened to my concerns ( sometimes gripes) and offered practical advise based on his experience and expertise. He was forthright in his assessments ( not just what you want to hear)and above all, I was impressed with his common sense approach to litigating. He returned my phone calls and made me feel like I had a tremendous advocate fighting for me. His fees were more than reasonable. While I was joyous with my outcome, I would have had no reservations about recommending him if the outcome were different!

Satisfied Customer

Chris Heberg handled my divorce during the Covid 19 pandemic and I couldn't have asked for better representation. He is a level headed professional who always explained things plainly to ease my anxiety and so I understood everything I should consider in making the best decisions for me,

Goes Above and Beyond

Chris Heberg represented me through a difficult and complicated divorce. He gave me honest counsel, showed incredible knowledge and was determined to have the best possible outcome for me. Chris and his exceptional paralegal Meredith stayed in contact and let me know what was happening every step of ...the way. He confidently and actively worked to resolve issues as they developed. Professionalism and care perfectly balanced.

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.
