About Heidi
Biography
My practice is focused on family law or domestic relations law. Since 1983, I have handled a wide variety of matters including divorce, equitable distribution, custody, child and spousal support matters, pre-nuptial agreements as well as Family Abuse Protection and stalking matters. I am a trained mediator and accomplished in alternative dispute resolution process in which the parties and their attorneys work together to resolve their disputes respectfully and civilly, without ever going to Court. My proactive and problem solving approach is practical and consistent with my client's desire for resolution during a most difficult time in their life.

Best Lawyer in Portland!!
Heidi helped me with my divorce. She was compassionate, a great communicator, and hard-working. She paid close attention to details which ended up helping me 2 years later with a spousal support case. I highly recommend Heidi as a lawyer. She's the best!!
