Excellent Lawyer

Heather helped me immensely in a recent dispute with a non-paying client. She was able to expedite what had been a months-long process and got me paid swiftly and without any hassle. She and her firm were always responsive and helpful in every way. I highly recommend her services.

Excellent Litigation Counsel, Strategic Thinker

I have been working with Heather on several civil litigation matters (as both a plaintiff and a defendant) for several years. I find her to be diligent, detail oriented, highly strategic, and an overall pleasure to work with. I am often impressed by her skill and the precision of her written argume...nts. My matters are often complex, involve years of history, detail, and documents, and her ability to put everything together, from the big picture to the minute but important details, is a vital asset. In court appearances, depositions, and conferences, she is always the most well prepared and skilled attorney in the room. In sum, I am very happy to be working with her and would recommend her to anyone looking for competent, skilled, ethical and diligent legal counsel.

I highly recommend Heather Gushue, Esq. for legal services

Heather Gushue, Esq. recently handled my legal name change, and I found every aspect of her service to be exemplary. We met in person to discuss the process, and Heather very clearly, concisely explained everything to me step by step. Thereafter, she kept me continually apprised of progress through ...each of the steps she'd outlined for me (drafting of the name-change court order submission; review and approval by the appropriate judge in my jurisdiction; publication in a local newspaper, etc.). Although this legal matter was fairly straightforward, there were some nuances related to my prior legal names (birth name changed after I was legally adopted; name changes related to my prior marriage and divorce; etc.). Heather navigated it all seamlessly and very efficiently. I never had to ask her for any updates at any point in the process; she always emailed me with timely progress reports and explanations of the next steps. She was extremely professional and effective, and without hesitation I highly recommend Heather Gushue.
