About Christine
Biography
Prior to attending law school I worked in the law practice industry; however, I was disappointed by the widespread lack of service and unprofessionalism that I observed. I strongly believed that it was possible to provide high quality legal services while still treating clients with the respect and dignity that they deserved, so I quit my job and went on to graduated magna cum laude from Thomas M. Cooley Law School. Today, I strive to maintain that same level of excellence in my practice. I exist to serve my clients. It can be both financially and emotionally draining to be involved in a legal dispute. I understand and appreciate the difficulties that you may be facing, and I am dedicated to finding a solution that is tailored to you and your situation.

Ms. Heckler doesn't simply "make a good argument", she supports her/your position with solid case law. She did in excellent job in my case. I would hire her again.
