Humanity meets Professionalism

What can I say? I’ve been a client of hers since 2019 through an incredibly difficult divorce and ongoing challenges with an insatiable ex. Throughout it all, she has been knowledgeable, strategic, and a strong advocate for both me and my children. She fought for things that others may have overlooke...d, and every time, her guidance and advocacy proved to be the right approach. She communicates clearly, genuinely cares, and makes you feel supported during some of the hardest moments imaginable. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing an attorney who is both compassionate and effective. Hopefully I won’t need to hire her again, but if I do, I’m fully confident she will deliver excellent results.

Wonderful Attorney

Heather is a wonderful attorney and person. She handled both of my boys adoption cases and it couldn’t have gone any better. She made everything so simple. Excellent communication, we knew what to expect and when to expect it. I’d recommend her to everyone in need of legal counsel.

Heather handled my contempt case and she was amazing in the court room! Brought such a sense of relief and was very professional! I highly recommend her for all family law matters!

She is a shark

I can’t say enough great things about my lawyer. From start to finish, her & her team were absolutely phenomenal. They fought hard for me, stayed on top of every detail, and made sure I understood the process every step of the way. Their confidence, knowledge, and dedication truly set them apart. ...What impressed me most was how much they genuinely cared—not just about the case, but about getting the best possible outcome for me. They were responsive, professional, and relentless when it mattered most. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond and truly “kick butt” when it counts, I highly recommend them. I’m beyond grateful for everything they did for me.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
