About Bonnie
Biography
I have been married since 1977 and am mother to 4 grown children, all adopted. My sons were born in Russia and adopted there and my daughters were born in California and adopted as infants here, so I have personal experience with both domestic and international adoption (and readoption). I have been practicing in the field of adoption since 1993 and have been involved in the successful completion of close to 2,000 adoptions of all types (independent, agency, stepparent, and adult). I have represented adopting parents and birth parents (depending on my role in the case) and have found this area of the law to be both challenging and rewarding. I have also helped to complete several guardianships.
When not working, I enjoy singing, traveling, volunteering at my church, reading, and working in my garden.

Prompt, thorough, and attentive
Bonnie guided us through the adoption process. She promptly responded to emails, kept us informed of every step along the way, and made us feel at ease knowing that we were in good hands.

Top Notch!!
Bonnie Hiler handled the adoption of my daughter and during such an emotional time filled with uncertainty, I could not have asked for a more knowledgeable, competent, professional and compassionate attorney to guide and represent me. I highly recommend Bonnie Hiler and will never be able to convey ...

Bonnie was extremely helpful and knowledgeable with the matters of our case. She always responded quickly and let us know every step with our adoption. She truly was an amazing guide and lawyer for the adoption of our son.

She is knowledgeable, conscientious, hard-working, reliable, and compassionate. She is a credit to the legal profession, and I am pleased to endorse her."
