Criminal

I highly recommend Attorney Reiner. She is extremely sweet, caring, forthcoming, and reassuring. She stepped in at the end of my case. Heather solved my legal problem quickly and efficiently. I could not have hoped for a better result. Heather was incredibly responsive and always kept me updated on t...he progress of my case. Her expertise in criminal law was evident. I felt confident in her abilities and am very grateful for her help. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone that is their first or tenth time dealing with legal issues

A True Fighter for You!

After being charged with a DUI under a controlled substance, I was in shock and at a loss because I knew I was not driving impaired, even though I was taking prescribed medications for a physical condition; but who was going to believe me? During my consultation with Heather she listened closely, as...ked many questions, took the time to explain the law, process, and possible outcomes, all while being compassionate about my fears of this “nightmare.” Having already met with a couple other attorney's, and already having an attorney I was not happy with, I hired Heather on the spot. The best decision I made related to this whole situation. She thoroughly reviewed the police & lab reports (from arresting blood test), as well as the dash cam video. Heather poured over my medical records and worked with a toxicologist in preparing my case for trial. Her focus was on me and my case; keeping me informed throughout the process, explaining what to expect next, and answering any questions I had. Through Heather’s hard work, I did not need to go to trial and the DUI charge was dropped; I received a fine for careless driving and 3 points (what it should have been from the beginning). If you want an attorney representing you who is committed to you, who believes in you, is compassionate, and yet honest and upfront, Attorney Heather Reiner is who you want leading your case. I know she is my hero!

Highly recommended

When our son was arrested for four felony counts related to drugs (PWID), we didn’t know where to turn or what to do to help him. After talking with several attorneys we selected Heather based on her relevant knowledge, immediate advice and overall sincerity. We quickly had a clear plan and knew we... were on the right track with her. She provided sound guidance that was important not only for his case but his rehab and mh care. Over 10 long months Heather relentlessly pursued numerous angles trying to reduce the number of charges and sentencing. She continuously ensured the ADA was kept up to date on my son’s progress during rehab. Given the tough stance that the DA’s office was taking on drug related crimes, we were extremely worried about what was in store for our son. Ultimately, Heather was able to get two of the felony charges dropped and he was given probation for his crimes, no jail or house arrest, so he could continue with his rehabilitation. I highly recommend Attorney Heather Reiner.

Heather the “Real Deal” Reiner

Heather has represented me several times in criminal and civil matters. I call her for anything I need and she answers or calls me back the same day. I refer family members and coworkers to Heather, who have hired her, and they are always satisfied. I couldn’t be happier with her legal services.

Diligent and Professional

I recently used Heather as a criminal attorney. She was a beacon of hope to me when I first met with her, at a time when my options appeared limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed next to impossible. Not only was she able to help defend me from an unjust accusation, her calm a...nd empathetic demeanor offered emotional succor to myself and those I care about most. My children and I are eternally grateful for her service and I hereby recommend Ms. Reiner to represent anyone in the future.
