Heather was great

The only regret I have is that I did not go with Sekella Law sooner. I used another attorney first time around and it was night and day once I signed on with Heather. As a father I felt my side was not taken seriously with the first ruling, but that all changed with Heather. My son is with me which i...s what he has been wanting for over three years.

Knowledgeable, responsive, and empathetic.

I reached out to Heather regarding a fairly complicated post-divorce, post-alimony dispute related to health insurance coverage for my ex-spouse. After an initial consultation where she educated me as to the uniqueness of my situation, she described a path forward that would provide closure. Thou...gh the issue took over a year to resolve (due mostly to the pandemic) I felt that Heather was attentive to my needs and generally cost-conscious in her approach. In the end things went against me financially which, while unfortunate, was always a possibility. However she did achieve my primary goal of finality without having to go through a trial, so overall I was satisfied which the approach Heather took.

Simply the BEST!!!!

I want to start by saying Heather Sekella and her team, are simply the best. My child custody and name change case was one that had many ups and downs, and unexpected twists and turns that lasted over 2 years. My case meant the world to my family and Heather treated it like that every day during the ...two year period. If I counted them all, I am sure I emailed Heather thousands of times with concerns and questions, many of which were out of worry. Each time Heather along with her paralegal Amanda Gillman responded quickly, providing clarification and knowledge all while alleviating my worry. The most important thing to me was the way Heather personally handled my case. We weren't just some client to her, we were important and each meeting we had, including appearances in front of the judge were handled with the same personal care and professionalism. Also, she had such a positive reputation with the court and others in her field that even the judge in our case expressed feelings of wanting to work with Heather more often. I can say that when I was looking for a lawyer I was lost and not sure what to look for. What drew me to Sekella Law was a review I read about Heather's professionalism and personal touch. I could not thank the person that wrote that review enough because it led me to Heather. I hope that this review helps others to have the same confidence in choosing a lawyer as I did when choosing Heather. Heather will give you the professionalism, expertise and unbelievable amount knowledge to handle any kind of case. The hard work she put into my case made all the difference in the world. My family and I will forever be grateful!

The best divorce lawyer in NH. No kidding.

Heather is our family hero. My parents were happily married for 39 years. Sadly, our mother died and out of loneliness our father re-married the wrong women in his 70s, realized his mistake after 5 years of marriage, and needed a divorce. We looked throughout NH for the best divorce lawyer we could f...ind. After interviewing many divorce lawyers, we picked Heather Sekella. Thank goodness. Heather handled all of our father's legal work quickly and produced a surprisingly good settlement in a very short time for our father. The communication between Heather (and her staff) and our father was excellent. We will never forget Heather and the many ways she made a (very) difficult situation much better through her thorough command of divorce law, her communication skills, and her desire to always do her best for her clients. If you need an experienced divorce lawyer, we can't recommend Heather more highly.

Excellent

I was a client of Heather Sekella for divorce from marriage. Attorney Sekella was fearless, highly capable and competent during the proceeding. She operated with integrity and is trustworthy. The legal system and other attorneys seem to know this. She will stand up for the truth. She saw the bigger p...icture and worked collaboratively towards a successful mediation. When a reasonable agreement could not be made on critical issues, she was a fierce defender for justice at the trial. I have come to respect her professionalism, competency, courage, and integrity. Attorney Sekella and her paralegal Amanda Gilman were thorough in their work.
