Heather Adrienne Baker

This was my first experience in hiring an attorney to assist me with steps I felt needed to be followed to terminate spousal maintenance. My first, and only, stop in determining who to help me was Heather Baker-Mushkatel. From our first meeting to the end I could not have made a better choice or hav...e been in better hands. Heather soon found out why I needed her help. My former turned out to be incredibly difficult to deal with and Heather powered through everything to get me the desired outcome I was initially seeking saving me a lot of money. I found both Heather and her assistant Lauren to be very professional, quick to return calls and answer any questions I had. I knew I was being taken care of and really enjoyed Heather's personality and candor as well. I would highly recommend Heather.

Heather Baker was assigned to me as a PD. I had hired an attorney on a criminal matter regarding my ex. I used his credit card to purchase a ticket for our daughter to fly back to our former home to visit her grandparents. He had me charged with ID theft although I had paid the credit card off les...s than 20 days after I charged it. Well, when my attorney suggested lying (which I knew I could win the case b/c my ex was a proven liar in court) and/or seducing him to drop the charges, I knew I needed a different attorney and entrusted Ms. Baker as my public defender. During my case, she was passionate, caring, determined to do something fair for everyone involved and to ensure that I would not lose my teaching certificate as a result of the action. She communicated with me and was terrific. I put all trust in her and I came out accepting my fault, but as a misdemeanor and thus, no actions toward my career resulted from this (other than losing my initial 65K paying job).
