Heather is BY FAR the most honest Lawyer! She doesn’t play around & gets the job done. Went out of her way to make sure I felt comfortable with certain things and made sure everything was pin-pointed in every angle. Wouldn’t of wanted any other person to represent me with my kiddos. Totally recomme...nd

Custody

I don’t even know where to start. I’ve had shared parenting with my ex for 8 years and we rotate every other week with our son. A few months ago our son came to me with some issues regarding his Dad and he no longer wanted to spend an entire week there. I struggled for a long time trying to decide i...f I was making the right decision. After trying to talk to my ex and requesting a mediation, I decided to hire Heather. My stomach was in knots, I was so torn. I prayed daily for God to guide me and help me make the right decisions, and I truly believe he answered my prayers by bringing Heather in. When I met with her I was very emotional, she walked me through the process, every step of what would happen and what my options were, with NO pressure at all. I cried and she consoled. I made her promise me that no matter how ugly things got or how angry or off focus I became, that my son would ALWAYS be her #1 focus, that she would fight for him, not for me, and that’s exactly what she did!! There were times that she said “ok, I understand you’re upset, but, we need to keep this about (son) and not about being angry with ex” Heather fought for my son like he was her own child, just as she promised! I’ve read a lot of the reviews, I’ve read how she didn’t return phone calls in a prompt manner or how she made a mistake on paper work, well, we are all human!! There were a couple of times I left a message and asked her to call me back and it took a few days, and that’s okay!!! She has a family and a life outside of her work, she was helping me with the most important thing in my life, the least I could do was be understanding and realize that I was not her only client! I appreciate the hard work she put in for my son, I can never repay her for what she did! Writing a check was nothing, it’s trying to figure out how to express my deep gratitude. I will never forget how she treated me and my son, she gave him a voice when his own father refused to listen. THANK YOU HEATHER, I pray that God blesses you and your beautiful family. If you need a passionate attorney, one that truly cares, I suggest you make the call!!!!!
