Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have repeatedly worked with Heather on unorthodox FDCPA and Consumer Fraud cases which we have co-counseled on behalf of aggrieved Plaintiffs--each time successfully. I value her input as she has repeatedly provided beneficial insight. Extremely competent, I endorse her with full confidence."

Litigation lawyer | Mar 29

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have referred Ms. Blaise and her team over 25 cases in the past two years. I can say without exception that Heather has either met or exceeded my and my clients' expectation on each occasion. What makes Heather different than other attorneys that I refer cases to is her complete command of each matter she is handling and equally important, her communication skills. Calls get returned within the day and meaningful updates are provided. I have been even more impressed by Heather's skill in litigation and her passion for researching and finding otherwise novel ways to advocate and protect her clients. She is a formidable advocate and an asset to my practice in that I know that every case I send over to her will be handled professionally and efficiently."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Attorney Blaise is one of the top lawyers I've had the pleasure of working with. I've had a number of clients that I've referred to Heather for civil litigation, family law, intellectual property, and other matters. Her professionalism is at the highest levels, she is responsive, hard working, and knowledgeable about the law. She fights both in and out of court for the best result for the client, and has obtained incredible results. I would highly endorse Attorney Blaise for any of your litigation needs, and I will continue to send my clients to her when the need arises."

  • 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.
