Heather J. Smethurst

Heather has become my right arm. My divorce began uneventful in 2014 with Heather patiently walking me through the process. She has continued to stand by me, advocate for me and my children through the what feels like non stop issues that have come up since that November day back in 2014 with what be...gan with an uncontested divorce. Attorney Smethurst has taken my late night and weekend phone calls, educated me on my options and the processes and as a result of her professionalism, I have on more than one occasion recommended Heather. In my over ten year history with Attorney Smethurst, she has provided additional legal services such as drafting and executing my will and health care proxy.

Heather was great to work with during my divorce proceedings. She was very upfront with what the costs of things would be as we moved through the steps and would would give the positives and negatives of each choice. I liked it when she would tell me "that is a complete waste of your money to do "X..." , you will not get anything out of that" , especially when you are running on emotion. She was concerned about my pocket, not just hers! She brings a personal touch to what is a tough time for anyone to go through, as you are not trusting anyone. Her retainer and feels seemed very reasonable as well!

Attorney Heather Smethurst is very reliable, professional, personable, and always makes herself available to her clients. I have had Heather represent me in my divorce and was very satisfied with the outcome. I have two children and one has Autism. The circumstances with a special needs child durin...g divorce and modification takes a lot of time and understanding. Attorney Smethurst proved without a doubt she could fight for my childrens rights with an incredible amount of compassion. Without Heather's expertise the outcome may have been very different, considering my ex husband moved to Florida and there were many issues at hand. I have recently used Heather again as my ex husband brought me back for child support modification. She was able to figure out his financial was not accurate and the child support guidelines would not be appropriate. Again, she helped me prevail in what could of been a long drawn out battle that could of ended up at trial. Both times we were able to avoid this and with both divorce in 2013 and back again in 2015 for support modification for an emancipated child she fought for what was right and we prevailed again! I would highly recommend Attorney Smethhurst for all your family law needs.
