A pitbull in a skirt!
Heather knew exactly what needed to be said and how to listen for when the other side was messing up. She knows her information. I will continue to have Heather in my corner when I need it again. I have already referred her to many of my friends and family.

Help when I needed it.
Heather was very helpful when I needed to file a contempt in my divorce case that had been closed for over 2 years. She did the research on the case needed and suggested a course of action. The issue was solved out of court and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. Thank you again for the great job...
