Very personal, great representation

2020 was a tough year I think for everyone and she had made my custody battle one less stress I had to worry about, I would have her represent me again in all family court matters.

Great attorney!

Heather has helped my family through the complex legal custody battle we faced. After the initial consultation, Heather has taken the stress out of court with her explaination of the legal procedure and our rights. She has been fantastic to work with. And I have and will continue to recommended her t...o everyone!

Conscientious Attorney

Heather was my attorney during a contested protective order. Without fail she was helpful, informative and caring. She kept me informed every step of the way and made sure I had all the information I needed to make appropriate decisions. Without her help I would have been lost. Heather filed paper...work correctly, on time and in the proper format, which helped cut down on unnecessary expenses. Her briefs on the motions were impeccable and persuasive. I would not hesitate to engage her again if I needed an attorney.

Amazing Professional Woman

We truly couldn't be happier with the work that Heather has done for us. She has done not only Business work, but Personal and Famiky related matters. We consider her a very dear friend.

The best attorney I have ever had!

Heather helped me in a custody case with my daughter. The case went on for 5 years because the other side kept filing motion after motion. She kept me abreast of everything that was happening with my case. She would even let me rant and cry in her office when I would get frustrated with how long m...y case was taking. I have had several other attorneys in a previous custody case and Heather has been the best attorney I have ever had represent me in court.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
