Amazing Attorney

Heather is an absolutely amazing attorney. Divorces is hard and super stressful but when you have an attorney like Heather who explains everything along the way, is super quick about getting what needs to be done in a timely matter and is always there to answer any question you have, it makes it so ...much easier.

Amazing divorce attorney

Heather made this uncomfortable process painless. She explained the entire process up front and kept me updated regularly throughout. Would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a divorce.

Trustworthy and Forthright

I went through a horrid divorce. My ex husband hired "fathers rights" attorney and was staging events to gain custody and the home, they were very mean and attempted to rip my kids lives to shreds for money. Heather handled the situation very professionally, She is a respected attorney unlike som...e, and the court respects her. My kids were returned to me and things correct for my children again. She put things in place and order at the beginning so that we were protected throughout the divorce process. All this was handled with her light hearted positive attitude that brought me peace during this terrible time of my life. I owe her forever for what she did for my children/family. Without a doubt I would recommend her and use her.

Heather is the best attorney you can get!

My divorce & custody battle were long and difficult. Heather was great through the whole thing. She gave me encouragement and confidence through out the process. She explained every step clearly and gave me every option available. Considering her work in the court room, she was worth 3x what she char...ged me. I highly recommend her!
