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.

Excellent results

I was referred to Chris Heberg by my trusted Real Estate attorney. I called the office late in the afternoon and was welcomed to his office the next day as my situation was time sensitive. My former husband's company was terminating their pension early and it had only come to my attention right be...fore the deadline. My QDRO had to be re-written and approved by a judge, certified and entered. Chris and his Paralegal Meredith, swiftly jumped to action and got it done in record time. They saved my marital portion of a rather substantial pension. I would highly recommend Chris Heberg.

I hired Christopher Heberg after not seeing my child for sometime. I felt defeated and had no clue where to start. Chris listened to my needs and wants and never once beat around the bush nor sugar coated anything , also listens to whats best for the children in whatever situation it may be. I would ...highly recommend Chris, as hes very professional , listens to everything and crosses his T's and dots his I's. It was a pleasure having him as my lawyer to represent me in in a time of need. He made me feel very comfortable and he got the job done and more !!! His paralegal Meredith also was great, and every time i called, or emailed she got right back to me in a timely manner. Any questions i had she was right their to answer them ! Thankyou to The LawOffices of Christopher Heberg !!! Kristina Labao

Divorce

I hired Christopher E. Heberg to represent me in my divorce. I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Heberg. Christopher was professional, responsible, diligent, and reliable. I feel like he took the time to get to know me as a person, and he approached my divorce with a strong sense of my practical needs, bo...th in the short-term and the long-run. In addition, Mr. Heberg is supported by a first-rate staff; his secretaries and legal assistants return phone-calls and e-mails promptly and efficiently. I feel very fortunate to have secured the services of Christopher E. Heberg, and I would not hesitate to hire him again.

I had hired a female lawyer for my complicated divorce and for over 6 months nothing was done, no communication at all,no paperwork records and agreed to have my ex husband attorney to go after my assets that was in the prenuptial agreement , i had to fired her. I heard chris from a friend of mi...ne, chris its fair, fighter and think for both parties. He is very organized and always call you back on the same dayif you have any questions. He get my divorce finalized within 7 months. I am grateful that he was willing to take my case from a different attorney. I do have make some compromises for child custody, as off right now its whats best for my child
