The Best!

Heather Fig is the best and I always recommend her! I used her for My divorce and she helped me through a very painful and terrible time In my life. I also had friends use her and they were so happy. She was always available to answer questions, help With decisions and made a terrible time I'm... my life less painful. I could call her office and her staff was always helpful, caring and great! She told Me I can always call her anytime to Ask a question and will always know I can count on her for help. I am so happy with decision to use Heather and she will always be my first and only recommendation! She is the best!

Divorce

From the moment I walked into her office, I knew she was the one and she continually fought for me and was there for me every step of the way. I would refer her if anyone needs a divorce lawyey in a second.

No stars

Run as fast as you can from this attorney. She doesn't protect you or your children. She is a father's rights attorney and cares little about the mother or children. She presents herself in a way which shows she is unaware of battered wife syndrome and it's impact on someone who has been abused. ...

Dissatisfied client

I was a client of Heather Fig in a divorce negotiation. I was very disappointed with how she handled the case. One time her staff and herself included information in the divorce agreement that I never was told about and only after reading the final draft did it become apparent. Another instance I was... given entirely erroneous information about court proceedings and was had papers arrive weeks after they were suppose to because they sent them to my past address from 2 years ago. Dont use this attorney.
