Very helpful!

Heather was very helpful through my entire divorce process. She explained things to me that I didn't understand and walked me through all the processes. She was very thorough in all her work and made sure I was protected. She worked very hard to get me the right custody of my kids and made sure I was... happy with all the results before we ever agreed to anything. She was very responsive on all her calls and emails and very easy to work with and get a hold of. I would highly recommend Heather and Howard Family Law!

A great experience

Heather represented me last year during my divorce. It was a great experience - she was above-and-beyond clear in her communication which helped immensely as we navigated the process. Our hearing was in April, during one of the first couple of weeks that Dakota County had adapted to virtual hearings... and Heather was incredibly flexible and clear leading up to and during the hearing (which actually took place over the phone). Heather was also incredibly understanding, and understood that to us, our daughters' welfare was most important. I would highly recommend her to friends, family, or strangers looking for a compassionate and competent attorney. Thanks Heather, from all of us!

Great to work with.

Heather was terrific. She was very attentive with my custody case. She thoroughly explained any matters I was confused about and was patient with my questions making an uncomfortable and emotional situation easier. I was amazed at her quick response time as well.
