Bridget Heptner is an outstanding practitioner of family law! She is not the typical family law attorney, she actually cares about her clients and especially the children involved. Family law litigation is absolutely one of the most stressful experiences one may have... She made the experience tolera...ble as she kept me equipped with the proper knowledge of procedural, case law, coupled with her 30+ years of family law experience. She guided me closely in what actions or instances would lead us down a particular path in court. She worked tirelessly for myself and my child to give us the best possible outcome and give us justice, where it was desperately needed. I know in hindsight after 2 years+ of litigation concluding that I was not wrong in placing my faith in her professional abilities! I would highly recommend Bridget Heptner to anyone who is litigating or planning to litigate a family law matter!

I would highly recommend Bridget without reservation. She has all the attributes and integrity that one would hope for in a family law attorney. I spent over 150,000 in attorney fees with a "billboard attorney" who never was able to facilitate or promote a mediation, with my contentious divorce, ...that was dragged out for over 2 years. In fact, I believe some of my initial attorney's advice actually promoted more motions, mediations, useless depositions, court hearings and most importantly more attorney fees. From my first meeting with Bridget, the interaction was very different compared to my initial attorney. She only has one assistant Nikki who is always a pleasure to deal with regarding correspondence, and leaving messages. Bridget only takes enough clients in order to properly handle a case. This is crucial if you want your divorce to come to a real settlement. She is not trying to build an empire. There was no absurd paralegal fees or abuse of billing, which in my opinion was rampant with my first attorney. The most important difference was the one on one attentiveness with my very complex case, which resulted in her mediating my divorce within less than a month. She actually would answer question or concerns via email or phone promptly. I truly believe if I had her as my family law attorney, my Divorce may have never been dragged out for 2 1/2 years, and I wouldn't have lost my entire retirement to attorney fees. I already have been recommending other colleagues and friends to at least obtain a second opinion from her. She was a pleasure to work with due to her compassion, integrity, intelligence, experience and professionalism!!! 5 stars and excellent review is was earned and deserved.
