New trends in divorce
Traditionally litigated divorce takes its toll on many families, often leaving emotional scars that require years to heal. New, less adversarial approaches to divorce have arisen in recent years that can help divorcing couples obtain a divorce through cooperation and open communication. Such approaches include:

Divorce mediation: Divorce through mediation is an option for couples who prefer a negotiated agreement, rather than going to court on the issues. If the parties are willing to work together cooperatively and openly, divorce mediation can result in a workable settlement agreement. In mediation, the issues addressed include:Child custody, Child support, Spousal support and Property/debt division. 

Collaborative divorce: In this process, the spouses, their divorce attorneys, and other professionals (as needed) form a team to work together in identifying and resolving all the disputed issues. Because a problem-solving approach is used, the attorneys can help you and your ex-spouse find solutions that meet each person’s needs and interests.

So glad I chose her, you will be too!

Heather is a very compassionate lady. Retaining her over the years for my divorce and subsequent issues, has been a pleasurable experience. She helped me to overcome the stress and anxiety associated with the divorce process. Besides her professionalism and talent for being an outstanding attorney, she was also like a sister to me. I wholeheartedly recommend her services.

Excellent representation

Posted by

Heather listened to my needs, details of all events and kept me well informed of court dates, correspondence with other party. She not only was representing me but my child too, had the best interest in my child. Remember she can only do her job with all the correct, accurate, truthful information. And best of all, she had real compassion for me.

Outstanding

We were pressed for time to fill out all the forms to be filed with the courts. Heather made time for us to come in after hours to go over all the forms. She charged us the hourly rate and helped guide us in the right direction. Her unselfishness with her time and expertise was a Godsend!

Couldn't have asked for a better attorney

Posted by

Although I was only partially successful in court today I have to say that heather was the most well spoken attorney I have ever witnessed in court and I've been there more than a time or too. I believe she genuinely cared about my case and fought professionally and confidently for what I was seeking. She wasn't one bit intimidated by the other sides council. Couldn't be more thankful for her! Thank you heather!

Heather A. Lewis - Excellent Domestic Violence Lawyer

Posted by

Heather Lewis represented us while we sought a restraining order against a dangerous family member. Not only was Heather very professional and supportive in the office and during our hearings but the judge granted us a five year restraining order, protecting myself and my family! I would recommend Heather Lewis to anyone seeking legal assistance for domestic violence problems.

Over Zealous Money Grubbing

Posted by

heather lewis is naive and money hungry. She will churn a case to drain her clients money when she knows she has no chance to win. She gives false hope to convince you and family members to drain their savings. Do not recommend. Heather will push you to fight for everything (and pay for it), when she knows you have no chance of winning.
