Hired

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

Professional & courteous

Attorney Heberg was very professional, courteous, understanding and patient through out my entire divorce case ...and there were multiple questions that needed to be answered, sporadically! He handled everything with patience and kindness. I will not hesitate to call upon him in the future should I ...need any legal advice or representation. REPLY 

Need a GREAT Divorce Lawyer look no further!

I highly recommend Chris Heberg. He's a no 'bullshit" attorney and often 'cut to the chase' and maximized our time strategizing before our court appearances. I was extremely impressed with his skills, organization, overwhelming knowledge, sincerity, and his awesome staff. He made me feel like I was ...the only client he was representing. Chris and/or his staff would return every phone call and every email in a timely manner no matter how minor the question. During my hearings he remained calm, professional, and stayed on point. Winning!!! I would without a doubt highly recommend him to all my friends going through a divorce. He enjoys what he does and that's what makes him the great attorney in my opinion. He has a passion and will help you reach a better and brighter future. I've heard many horror stories from others that have divorced. He literally made my divorce easy and I felt empowered by the whole process. Wonderful experience

Peace of mind

When I first was going through the divorce process nearly a decade ago we went through mediators and I felt bullied by my ex into agreeing to things with the mediators that ultimately were not in the best interest of my children and I. Recently, with my oldest graduating high school, my ex has filed ...for a modification of guidelines (support). This time I sought council and I am so glad I did. Even though modification of support orders is a relatively easy process, having Attorney Heberg in my corner has made all the difference in the world, just for my peace of mind alone. He gave me a realistic view on what was possible and what would be just throwing good money after bad. He is fair and honest and, even though my case is not settled yet, his no-nonsense attitude assures me that he will make sure my children and I don't get steamrolled.

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.
