Get ready to open your wallet

I used ms Ronconi for a custody battle that went on for 3 yrs. Why so long? I don't know. You'd have to ask Ms. Ronconi. She allowed the family therapist we had been involved with and got along with to be replaced by one of her friends who had been working with the opposite side. So that didn't go... well. She frequently back burnered my case so she could get new clients (new money). I paid her 110g all said and done. She took the money and threw my family to the wolves.

Heather is a TRUE EXPERT

I hired Heather for a divorce and child custody case. She is very knowledgeable and honest with expectations. She took the time to meet with me before every hearing and prepare me for any possible scenarios. Anytime I had questions, she took the time to clarify and did it with a pleasant attitude. On... the date of the hearing, Heather truly shocked me. I knew she was strong but was not expecting her to come out swinging like she did! She had no mercy on the opposing council and my ex-spouse. She came prepared with difficult questions, dates and concrete evidence and made them look like fools! She delivered on what was most important to me and I am so grateful that I hired her. I highly recommend Heather and her team. Heather and her paralegal Margie are always on top of all dates, documents, emails, phone calls...you name it. I am truly impressed with Heather and her team and will forever be grateful. She went above and beyond for me and I have no doubt that she will do the same for anyone who hires her.

Excellent Attorney

Highly recommended. Attorney Ronconi helped navigate through what was repeatedly described to me as “one of the most difficult and confusing” issues in family law, multi-state child custody jurisdiction. Attorney Ronconi not only understood the issues, but honestly explained what I could expect. I ne...ver felt like I didn’t know what was happening, and she took the time needed to review a flurry of case documents and meet with me to prepare for court. No right-minded person would engage in a child custody suit unless it was absolutely necessary. My experience was a very emotionally charged whirlwind. As a parent, it is embarrassing when two adults must invite strangers into their lives to resolve their issues. Attorney Ronconi fought for my child as if he was her own. Highly capable, ethical, knowledgeable, and effective. Her team, especially Veronica, are extremely patient, caring, and diligent.

You want Heather. She knows her cases, she knows the courts. If you don't retain her you run the risk that the other party will. I only regret that I didn't get her sooner!

All was wrong till I hired Ms. Roconi

As she appeared for me for the first time, She set the standard of what all I know is to come. I was on my way to a hearing reference a PO my soon to be Ex had filled as to keep me from my son and gain leverage with courts. Ms. Roconi arrived before me and already had started to work my case. She wen...t to the DA's office reference my case. Immediately, they informed her they were not going to pursue the PO and were notifying the court of the dismissal of their representing my soon to be ex in the matter. Ms. Roconi called and informed me of the DA's position change reference the PO and told me I could turn around and go back home. I had only hired her a few hours prior earlier that morning. I know there will be more great things to come. She is a powerhouse atty and demands respect for her client. She came very highly recommended. I will keep you informed.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have recently worked with Heather on a complex Multi-jurisdictional Domestic Matter. She is courteous, professional, and highly knowledgeable. She has an excellent grasp of the law and knows how to use it to her advantage. I don't impress easily, but, she impresses me. I am an Ohio Attorney with over thirty years of trial litigation experience-- over 70,000 legal matters handled--and I know a good lawyer when I see one. If I was in El Paso, I would most assuredly hire her."
