"My Aunt referred Heather to me as she was represented by her in the past and after talking to Heather I felt confident and comfortable in retaining her representation in my divorce. She and her staff answered all my questions, were available and were always professional. Thank you to Heather and her team for providing me with great representation!"

"I was not expecting much from an initial consultation but Heather was more than exceptional. Her attentiveness and advice on my situation was greatly appreciated given it was the first time we spoke. It would be all to easy to sign me up as a client and take my money but she didn't. That speaks to her charecter greatly. Heather, if I need your help I will be back! Thank you."
