About

Founder and owner of the Bliss Law Group, Heather Z. Bliss, was drawn to family law largely because of the unexpected tragic loss of both her parents at a young age. She and her brothers experienced a unique childhood after their parents’ deaths, and this incited her passion for helping families navigate through the legal system and the potential turmoil they face when dealing with court and the legal world when it directly impacts children and families. Her hope is to assist in alleviating stress and pain, and to help navigate the family to a successful resolution of their legal issues.Since 2001, Heather has spent her entire law career refining her skills in family law and has successfully established her practice in all aspects of domestic relations. She works attentively for each of her clients in order to attain the best results for them and their families.  With Heather’s knowledge and proficiency in family law, she is able to determine and execute the optimal course of action in any case. With any situation that arises, her determined nature and tenaciousness combined with her extensive experience helps create a positive outcome for each of her clients.Heather strives to offer services in family law and estate planning for parents that make a positive impact on her clients’ lives. Her mission is to facilitate communication between parties and assist her clients by providing the resources they need in hopes of giving them a more fulfilling and rewarding future. She expects clients to leave the firm, not only with a successful resolution to their legal matter, but also with the tools necessary to maintain a balanced and satisfying lifestyle. Her holistic approach and sincere concern for her client’s wellbeing sets her apart from other attorneys. She advocates for all of her clients with unwavering strength and commitment.In her spare time Heather is an avid skier, she loves to travel, and enjoys spending time with family and friends whether it be boating on the Puget Sound or enjoying the best time of the year – Lake Time. Heather’s most rewarding moments are those spent with her husband Matt and their two sons.EducationSpeaking Engagements/Classes/SeminarsProfessional Associations/MembershipsHonors, Distinctions & AwardsActivities

I had a difficult time finding representation because I live overseas. Attorney Bliss and her entire TEAM were so professional and supportive. The time zones did not challenge them I am so thankful for their support during challenging times in a difficult situation.

It's never pleasant to go through a divorce, but if you have to go through one you might as well have the best people on your side. Heather Bliss protected me from start to finish. My case was so sensitive at the beginning that she opened her office and met me on a Sunday. I'm forever thankful. If you ever have to experience what I went through then Heather and her team are who you need.

Heather Bliss and Staff are wonderful! Heather is a genuine caring individual who will make sure you and your loved ones are best served. Although she is fantastic she does not allow ego to drive your case, she is realistic, honest, compassionate and will not waste your time or money chasing frivolous things. She will put your mind at ease the first time you meet, she is incredibly knowledgable and her work comes from the heart. I have used her a couple times and she made the process run as smoothly and stress free as possible. Asset the the legal field and her clients.

I hired Heather after I had the same lawyer for 3 plus years. I had been through a very nasty divorce, a revised parenting plan right after my divorce and battles over child support. I was trying to obtain passports for my children which my ex husband was not wanting to cooperate with. So that's when I hired Heather. I met with her one morning and right away I knew she was a good fit for me. She was not going to back down from my ex and was not afraid to rock the boat a little. She told me my case needed a change in tone and that's exactly what she did. She changed the tone of my case. In court she was very assertive and not going to take anyone's crap. The look on my ex husbands face was priceless. I think his eyeballs almost popped out of his head when she spoke. My other lawyer was very soft spoken and not very assertive, so he was used to pushing her around, but not Heather. She was not going to let that happen. She fought for me in court and it paid off. I ended up getting everything I wanted that day. I was amazed at her professionalism. I would totally recommend her, especially if you are in a really nasty divorce or custody battle. She and her staff guided me the entire way. Through countless emails and phone calls they were able to help me respond to my ex husbands emails in a way that would be positive for me in court. I think that is a huge factor when hiring a lawyer. You need their guidance that's why you hired them. At times I have felt very hopeless in my situation with my ex husband, but now I have more hope that the future will be better because of Heather's help.

The law office of Heather Bliss came into my life un-expectantly and it turned out to be a true blessing in disguise. I was facing a serious challenge. I was being falsely accused of some serious allegations by my ex-husband who is a police officer and in turn was facing an uphill battle. I was represented by a different attorney for years because my divorce was very contentious but I always felt underrepresented and felt bullied by my ex’s legal counsel. The moment I called Heather Bliss’s office, I knew I made a good decision. Her legal assistant, Jessica, was very professional and understanding of my situation and relayed the urgency of my case to Heather who then saw me the same day for a consultation which is unheard of. When I arrived to her office, Heather was pro-active and had already looked up information about my case. Her level of preparation and thoroughness was impressive. It was at the consultation that Heather immediately noticed that my ex had filed documentation with the court to fight for full custody with his false accusations. This of course sent me into a whirlwind of panic but Heather took charge immediately. I explained my situation to her and she listened with empathy, was very understanding and made me feel like I was not just another case. She made me feel like my difficult situation was just as important to her as it was to me. Heather succinctly and thoroughly advised me on the pros and cons of each course of action and broke down each step with concrete instructions. Throughout the process, Heather and her legal team were quick to respond to any questions that I may have and kept me informed every step of the way. Heather is very knowledgeable about the law, detail-oriented and aggressive when she needs to be to fight for what is right. Heather’s professionalism, thorough preparation with her cases and attention to legal details are exemplified in the court room where her effective communication skills, assertiveness and confidence show through. I have no doubt that Heather’s expertise and passion for fighting for her clients allowed me to win my case, regain control of my life and put my mind at ease during a very stressful and challenging time. If I could do it all over again, I would have retained Heather from the beginning to avoid all the problems that surfaced because I was not represented properly from the get go. Nevertheless, I am happy and relieved to have finally found an attorney that is invested in her clients, personable and knowledgeable of legal details. Rest assured that you will be in very good hands if you have the law office of Heather Bliss on your side.

I had the pleasure to work with Heather and her team for over a year as we slogged through the myriad details of my 24 year marriage, separation and ultimate divorce. First and foremost Heather is a listener. She pays thoughtful attention to what you have to say. By that I mean, should you begin to digress or stray from the subject at hand, she has the ability to tactfully bring you back on point so as not to waste your investment in her time. More importantly, after you have provided her with, what you may feel are, salient and pertinent points, she intuitively asks questions that strike through the emotion and get directly to the heart of the case. Again, this saves you on your investment, in both your and her time. Throughout each of your conferences, Heather continually inquires as to whether she has a correct understanding of what you are saying and if you are comfortable with the progression and direction that she and the case are taking. Heather takes a team approach when she takes you on as a client. She sets extremely high expectations for herself, her paralegal and legal assistant in their handling of your case. From my standpoint, when her client is an involved participant with her team, efficiency improves, which in turn, increases the possibilities of a successful outcome. This means, again from my point of view, that when you approach Heather for representation, “have your ducks in a row.” Meaning, that if you want to keep costs to a minimum and have the greatest possibility for a positive outcome in your case, be proactive. When you show up for your initial consultation, first, and foremost, try to have your emotions in check. This will not only save time but in turn allow for insightful discussion of the facts. Next, have with you, your estimate of assets and liabilities along with a basic idea of the outcome you wish to see in your case. Finally, Heather will explain in depth and in understandable language, the facts of your case, possible strategies and anticipated outcome. She will take whatever time it takes to make sure you understand the ramifications, both legal and personal, of any decision you may make. Even if she does not fully agree with your decision after you have been explained the pros and cons, she will, relentlessly fight to get the best outcome possible for you in light of the informed decision you have made. This attorney will never contact you unless she truly has something to communicate. Again, keeping costs down. Of course, should you require a more hands on approach, Heather and her team are definitely capable of accommodating your needs. Her years of experience are showcased in her insightful and direct communications both with her client, staff and opposing counsel. A divorcing of two people who, at one time, truly loved one another is never an emotionless or easy process. With her many years of experience in this field of law, Heather’s skillset helps to keep things in perspective and she delivers information, whether good or bad, in a factual non-emotional manner that allows her client to make an informed and intelligent decision. I hope that this review of Heather Z. Bliss will help you in your decision to retain her for your legal needs. You will not be disappointed by Heather and her team. Sincerely, Client of a successful outcome

Heather is an amazing attorney!!!! She took over my divorce (custody, child support) case with only a couple of weeks to review before the 1st hearing. At every hearing/meeting, I felt completely secure in her skills (it was very interesting to just sit back and watch her do her thing). My ex used the legal system & various government services (filed motions just to file them, petitioned for a protection order against me, filed a CPS report) to harass me throughout the entire process and Heather helped me remain calm and handled every situation as it came with professionalism, tack and he utmost skill. She provided sound and realistic advice at every turn. Quite frankly, through her guidance during this process, I feel I grew as a person. I felt very blessed to have her represent me.

I highly recommend Heather as your attorney!! My x-husband worked with his family business and hid money to make it look as though we made very little. In mediation Heather would not back down and made sure I walked away with what I rightfully deserved. She knew exactly how to handle my situation. She is very confident in her ability and every time I spoke with her I knew my case was in good hands. She truly wanted the best for me and cared. She pointed out things that I would not have thought of and how the decisions I made today would affect me and my children in the future. I feel very lucky to have stumbled across Heather; I know that my case would not have had the outcome it did if I had used anyone else!

First of all, Heather was recommended to me by other attorney’s outside of Pierce county speaking to her level of respect with in the world of law. Heather Bliss was among this short list of recommendations. I had met with another attorney who made me feel like they were not interested in me or my situation. Then I met with Heather. I instantly felt at ease. Heather gave me so many more options giving me hope that my problems weren’t so giant sized. Her and her staff responded quickly with each concern. Heather cares deeply about her clients, sets goals, takes action to reach those goals, and with her depth of experience she is able to adapt to whatever comes her way during the journey to closure in a divorce. Heather represented me in my divorce, keeping me grounded along the way with a very difficult Ex-husband who was representing himself and who had created many hurdles. Heather treated him with respect and applied the appropriate amount of pressure to solve the matters at hand. It is clear to me that Heather has the respect of her colleagues and a great reputation with the Judges. I am glad I had her on my side in the court room! Heather won every case for me and was a huge support to me in that difficult time. She is compassionate and an excellent attorney. I would and HAVE referred friends – she is the one you want by your side.

I appreciate her honesty and attention to detail and it is clear she is highly respected by her peers in the courtroom. She truly cares about what is best for your child and leaves nothing unattended to. I refer her any chance I get as I know they will be in good hands. She is a person will realistic expectations, integrity and is very sharp. Highly recommend!

My ex used the legal system & various government services (filed motions just to file them, petitioned for a protection order against me, filed a CPS report) to harass me throughout the entire process and Heather helped me remain calm and handled every situation as it came with professionalism, tack and he utmost skill. She provided sound and realistic advice at every turn. Quite frankly, through her guidance during this process, I feel I grew as a person. I felt very blessed to have her represent me.

I highly recommend Heather as your attorney!! My x-husband worked with his family business and hid money to make it look as though we made very little. In mediation Heather would not back down and made sure I walked away with what I rightfully deserved. She knew exactly how to handle my situation. She is very confident in her ability and every time I spoke with her I knew my case was in good hands. She truly wanted the best for me and cared. She pointed out things that I would not have thought of and how the decisions I made today would affect me and my children in the future. I feel very lucky to have stumbled across Heather; I know that my case would not have had the outcome it did if I had used anyone else!

First of all, Heather was recommended to me by other attorney’s outside of Pierce county speaking to her level of respect with in the world of law. Heather Bliss was among this short list of recommendations. I had met with another attorney who made me feel like they were not interested in me or my situation. Then I met with Heather. I instantly felt at ease. Heather gave me so many more options giving me hope that my problems weren’t so giant sized. Her and her staff responded quickly with each concern. Heather cares deeply about her clients, sets goals, takes action to reach those goals, and with her depth of experience she is able to adapt to whatever comes her way during the journey to closure in a divorce. Heather represented me in my divorce, keeping me grounded along the way with a very difficult Ex-husband who was representing himself and who had created many hurdles. Heather treated him with respect and applied the appropriate amount of pressure to solve the matters at hand. It is clear to me that Heather has the respect of her colleagues and a great reputation with the Judges. I am glad I had her on my side in the court room! Heather won every case for me and was a huge support to me in that difficult time. She is compassionate and an excellent attorney. I would and HAVE referred friends – she is the one you want by your side.

I appreciate her honesty and attention to detail and it is clear she is highly respected by her peers in the courtroom.

She is a person will realistic expectations, integrity and is very sharp. Highly recommend!

I had a difficult time finding representation because I live overseas. Attorney Bliss and her entire TEAM were so professional and supportive. The time zones did not challenge them I am so thankful for their support during challenging times in a difficult situation.

It's never pleasant to go through a divorce, but if you have to go through one you might as well have the best people on your side. Heather Bliss protected me from start to finish. My case was so sensitive at the beginning that she opened her office and met me on a Sunday. I'm forever thankful. If you ever have to experience what I went through then Heather and her team are who you need.

Heather Bliss and Staff are wonderful! Heather is a genuine caring individual who will make sure you and your loved ones are best served.

She will put your mind at ease the first time you meet, she is incredibly knowledgable and her work comes from the heart. I have used her a couple times and she made the process run as smoothly and stress free as possible. Asset the the legal field and her clients.

I hired Heather after I had the same lawyer for 3 plus years. I had been through a very nasty divorce, a revised parenting plan right after my divorce and battles over child support. I was trying to obtain passports for my children which my ex husband was not wanting to cooperate with. So that's when I hired Heather. I met with her one morning and right away I knew she was a good fit for me. She was not going to back down from my ex and was not afraid to rock the boat a little. She told me my case needed a change in tone and that's exactly what she did. She changed the tone of my case. In court she was very assertive and not going to take anyone's crap. The look on my ex husbands face was priceless. I think his eyeballs almost popped out of his head when she spoke. My other lawyer was very soft spoken and not very assertive, so he was used to pushing her around, but not Heather. She was not going to let that happen. She fought for me in court and it paid off. I ended up getting everything I wanted that day. I was amazed at her professionalism. I would totally recommend her, especially if you are in a really nasty divorce or custody battle. She and her staff guided me the entire way. Through countless emails and phone calls they were able to help me respond to my ex husbands emails in a way that would be positive for me in court. I think that is a huge factor when hiring a lawyer. You need their guidance that's why you hired them. At times I have felt very hopeless in my situation with my ex husband, but now I have more hope that the future will be better because of Heather's help.

The law office of Heather Bliss came into my life un-expectantly and it turned out to be a true blessing in disguise. I was facing a serious challenge. I was being falsely accused of some serious allegations by my ex-husband who is a police officer and in turn was facing an uphill battle. I was represented by a different attorney for years because my divorce was very contentious but I always felt underrepresented and felt bullied by my ex’s legal counsel. The moment I called Heather Bliss’s office, I knew I made a good decision. Her legal assistant, Jessica, was very professional and understanding of my situation and relayed the urgency of my case to Heather who then saw me the same day for a consultation which is unheard of. When I arrived to her office, Heather was pro-active and had already looked up information about my case. Her level of preparation and thoroughness was impressive. It was at the consultation that Heather immediately noticed that my ex had filed documentation with the court to fight for full custody with his false accusations. This of course sent me into a whirlwind of panic but Heather took charge immediately. I explained my situation to her and she listened with empathy, was very understanding and made me feel like I was not just another case. She made me feel like my difficult situation was just as important to her as it was to me. Heather succinctly and thoroughly advised me on the pros and cons of each course of action and broke down each step with concrete instructions. Throughout the process, Heather and her legal team were quick to respond to any questions that I may have and kept me informed every step of the way. Heather is very knowledgeable about the law, detail-oriented and aggressive when she needs to be to fight for what is right. Heather’s professionalism, thorough preparation with her cases and attention to legal details are exemplified in the court room where her effective communication skills, assertiveness and confidence show through. I have no doubt that Heather’s expertise and passion for fighting for her clients allowed me to win my case, regain control of my life and put my mind at ease during a very stressful and challenging time. If I could do it all over again, I would have retained Heather from the beginning to avoid all the problems that surfaced because I was not represented properly from the get go. Nevertheless, I am happy and relieved to have finally found an attorney that is invested in her clients, personable and knowledgeable of legal details. Rest assured that you will be in very good hands if you have the law office of Heather Bliss on your side.

I had the pleasure to work with Heather and her team for over a year as we slogged through the myriad details of my 24 year marriage, separation and ultimate divorce. First and foremost Heather is a listener. She pays thoughtful attention to what you have to say. By that I mean, should you begin to digress or stray from the subject at hand, she has the ability to tactfully bring you back on point so as not to waste your investment in her time. More importantly, after you have provided her with, what you may feel are, salient and pertinent points, she intuitively asks questions that strike through the emotion and get directly to the heart of the case. Again, this saves you on your investment, in both your and her time. Throughout each of your conferences, Heather continually inquires as to whether she has a correct understanding of what you are saying and if you are comfortable with the progression and direction that she and the case are taking. Heather takes a team approach when she takes you on as a client. She sets extremely high expectations for herself, her paralegal and legal assistant in their handling of your case. From my standpoint, when her client is an involved participant with her team, efficiency improves, which in turn, increases the possibilities of a successful outcome. This means, again from my point of view, that when you approach Heather for representation, “have your ducks in a row.” Meaning, that if you want to keep costs to a minimum and have the greatest possibility for a positive outcome in your case, be proactive. When you show up for your initial consultation, first, and foremost, try to have your emotions in check. This will not only save time but in turn allow for insightful discussion of the facts. Next, have with you, your estimate of assets and liabilities along with a basic idea of the outcome you wish to see in your case. Finally, Heather will explain in depth and in understandable language, the facts of your case, possible strategies and anticipated outcome. She will take whatever time it takes to make sure you understand the ramifications, both legal and personal, of any decision you may make. Even if she does not fully agree with your decision after you have been explained the pros and cons, she will, relentlessly fight to get the best outcome possible for you in light of the informed decision you have made. This attorney will never contact you unless she truly has something to communicate. Again, keeping costs down. Of course, should you require a more hands on approach, Heather and her team are definitely capable of accommodating your needs. Her years of experience are showcased in her insightful and direct communications both with her client, staff and opposing counsel. A divorcing of two people who, at one time, truly loved one another is never an emotionless or easy process. With her many years of experience in this field of law, Heather’s skillset helps to keep things in perspective and she delivers information, whether good or bad, in a factual non-emotional manner that allows her client to make an informed and intelligent decision. I hope that this review of Heather Z. Bliss will help you in your decision to retain her for your legal needs. You will not be disappointed by Heather and her team. Sincerely, Client of a successful outcome

With her many years of experience in this field of law, Heather’s skillset helps to keep things in perspective and she delivers information, whether good or bad, in a factual non-emotional manner that allows her client to make an informed and intelligent decision. I hope that this review of Heather Z. Bliss will help you in your decision to retain her for your legal needs. You will not be disappointed by Heather and her team. Sincerely, Client of a successful outcome

Heather is an amazing attorney!!!! She took over my divorce (custody, child support) case with only a couple of weeks to review before the 1st hearing. At every hearing/meeting, I felt completely secure in her skills (it was very interesting to just sit back and watch her do her thing). My ex used the legal system & various government services (filed motions just to file them, petitioned for a protection order against me, filed a CPS report) to harass me throughout the entire process and Heather helped me remain calm and handled every situation as it came with professionalism, tack and he utmost skill. She provided sound and realistic advice at every turn. Quite frankly, through her guidance during this process, I feel I grew as a person. I felt very blessed to have her represent me.

I highly recommend Heather as your attorney!! My x-husband worked with his family business and hid money to make it look as though we made very little. In mediation Heather would not back down and made sure I walked away with what I rightfully deserved. She knew exactly how to handle my situation. She is very confident in her ability and every time I spoke with her I knew my case was in good hands. She truly wanted the best for me and cared. She pointed out things that I would not have thought of and how the decisions I made today would affect me and my children in the future. I feel very lucky to have stumbled across Heather; I know that my case would not have had the outcome it did if I had used anyone else!

First of all, Heather was recommended to me by other attorney’s outside of Pierce county speaking to her level of respect with in the world of law. Heather Bliss was among this short list of recommendations. I had met with another attorney who made me feel like they were not interested in me or my situation. Then I met with Heather. I instantly felt at ease. Heather gave me so many more options giving me hope that my problems weren’t so giant sized. Her and her staff responded quickly with each concern. Heather cares deeply about her clients, sets goals, takes action to reach those goals, and with her depth of experience she is able to adapt to whatever comes her way during the journey to closure in a divorce. Heather represented me in my divorce, keeping me grounded along the way with a very difficult Ex-husband who was representing himself and who had created many hurdles. Heather treated him with respect and applied the appropriate amount of pressure to solve the matters at hand. It is clear to me that Heather has the respect of her colleagues and a great reputation with the Judges. I am glad I had her on my side in the court room! Heather won every case for me and was a huge support to me in that difficult time. She is compassionate and an excellent attorney. I would and HAVE referred friends – she is the one you want by your side.

Heather Bliss is upfront and honest. She does not waste your money chasing things that are not important or things that are not realistic. I appreciate her honesty and attention to detail and it is clear she is highly respected by her peers in the courtroom. She truly cares about what is best for your child and leaves nothing unattended to. I refer her any chance I get as I know they will be in good hands. She is a person will realistic expectations, integrity and is very sharp. Highly recommend!

I had a difficult time finding representation because I live overseas. Attorney Bliss and her entire TEAM were so professional and supportive. The time zones did not challenge them I am so thankful for their support during challenging times in a difficult situation.

It's never pleasant to go through a divorce, but if you have to go through one you might as well have the best people on your side. Heather Bliss protected me from start to finish. My case was so sensitive at the beginning that she opened her office and met me on a Sunday. I'm forever thankful. If you ever have to experience what I went through then Heather and her team are who you need.

Heather Bliss and Staff are wonderful! Heather is a genuine caring individual who will make sure you and your loved ones are best served. Although she is fantastic she does not allow ego to drive your case, she is realistic, honest, compassionate and will not waste your time or money chasing frivolous things. She will put your mind at ease the first time you meet, she is incredibly knowledgable and her work comes from the heart. I have used her a couple times and she made the process run as smoothly and stress free as possible. Asset the the legal field and her clients.

I hired Heather after I had the same lawyer for 3 plus years. I had been through a very nasty divorce, a revised parenting plan right after my divorce and battles over child support. I was trying to obtain passports for my children which my ex husband was not wanting to cooperate with. So that's when I hired Heather. I met with her one morning and right away I knew she was a good fit for me. She was not going to back down from my ex and was not afraid to rock the boat a little. She told me my case needed a change in tone and that's exactly what she did. She changed the tone of my case. In court she was very assertive and not going to take anyone's crap. The look on my ex husbands face was priceless. I think his eyeballs almost popped out of his head when she spoke. My other lawyer was very soft spoken and not very assertive, so he was used to pushing her around, but not Heather. She was not going to let that happen. She fought for me in court and it paid off. I ended up getting everything I wanted that day. I was amazed at her professionalism. I would totally recommend her, especially if you are in a really nasty divorce or custody battle. She and her staff guided me the entire way. Through countless emails and phone calls they were able to help me respond to my ex husbands emails in a way that would be positive for me in court. I think that is a huge factor when hiring a lawyer. You need their guidance that's why you hired them. At times I have felt very hopeless in my situation with my ex husband, but now I have more hope that the future will be better because of Heather's help.

The law office of Heather Bliss came into my life un-expectantly and it turned out to be a true blessing in disguise. I was facing a serious challenge. I was being falsely accused of some serious allegations by my ex-husband who is a police officer and in turn was facing an uphill battle. I was represented by a different attorney for years because my divorce was very contentious but I always felt underrepresented and felt bullied by my ex’s legal counsel. The moment I called Heather Bliss’s office, I knew I made a good decision. Her legal assistant, Jessica, was very professional and understanding of my situation and relayed the urgency of my case to Heather who then saw me the same day for a consultation which is unheard of. When I arrived to her office, Heather was pro-active and had already looked up information about my case. Her level of preparation and thoroughness was impressive. It was at the consultation that Heather immediately noticed that my ex had filed documentation with the court to fight for full custody with his false accusations. This of course sent me into a whirlwind of panic but Heather took charge immediately. I explained my situation to her and she listened with empathy, was very understanding and made me feel like I was not just another case. She made me feel like my difficult situation was just as important to her as it was to me. Heather succinctly and thoroughly advised me on the pros and cons of each course of action and broke down each step with concrete instructions. Throughout the process, Heather and her legal team were quick to respond to any questions that I may have and kept me informed every step of the way. Heather is very knowledgeable about the law, detail-oriented and aggressive when she needs to be to fight for what is right. Heather’s professionalism, thorough preparation with her cases and attention to legal details are exemplified in the court room where her effective communication skills, assertiveness and confidence show through. I have no doubt that Heather’s expertise and passion for fighting for her clients allowed me to win my case, regain control of my life and put my mind at ease during a very stressful and challenging time. If I could do it all over again, I would have retained Heather from the beginning to avoid all the problems that surfaced because I was not represented properly from the get go. Nevertheless, I am happy and relieved to have finally found an attorney that is invested in her clients, personable and knowledgeable of legal details. Rest assured that you will be in very good hands if you have the law office of Heather Bliss on your side.

I had the pleasure to work with Heather and her team for over a year as we slogged through the myriad details of my 24 year marriage, separation and ultimate divorce. First and foremost Heather is a listener. She pays thoughtful attention to what you have to say. By that I mean, should you begin to digress or stray from the subject at hand, she has the ability to tactfully bring you back on point so as not to waste your investment in her time. More importantly, after you have provided her with, what you may feel are, salient and pertinent points, she intuitively asks questions that strike through the emotion and get directly to the heart of the case. Again, this saves you on your investment, in both your and her time. Throughout each of your conferences, Heather continually inquires as to whether she has a correct understanding of what you are saying and if you are comfortable with the progression and direction that she and the case are taking. Heather takes a team approach when she takes you on as a client. She sets extremely high expectations for herself, her paralegal and legal assistant in their handling of your case. From my standpoint, when her client is an involved participant with her team, efficiency improves, which in turn, increases the possibilities of a successful outcome. This means, again from my point of view, that when you approach Heather for representation, “have your ducks in a row.” Meaning, that if you want to keep costs to a minimum and have the greatest possibility for a positive outcome in your case, be proactive. When you show up for your initial consultation, first, and foremost, try to have your emotions in check. This will not only save time but in turn allow for insightful discussion of the facts. Next, have with you, your estimate of assets and liabilities along with a basic idea of the outcome you wish to see in your case. Finally, Heather will explain in depth and in understandable language, the facts of your case, possible strategies and anticipated outcome. She will take whatever time it takes to make sure you understand the ramifications, both legal and personal, of any decision you may make. Even if she does not fully agree with your decision after you have been explained the pros and cons, she will, relentlessly fight to get the best outcome possible for you in light of the informed decision you have made. This attorney will never contact you unless she truly has something to communicate. Again, keeping costs down. Of course, should you require a more hands on approach, Heather and her team are definitely capable of accommodating your needs. Her years of experience are showcased in her insightful and direct communications both with her client, staff and opposing counsel. A divorcing of two people who, at one time, truly loved one another is never an emotionless or easy process. With her many years of experience in this field of law, Heather’s skillset helps to keep things in perspective and she delivers information, whether good or bad, in a factual non-emotional manner that allows her client to make an informed and intelligent decision.

She will take whatever time it takes to make sure you understand the ramifications, both legal and personal, of any decision you may make. Even if she does not fully agree with your decision after you have been explained the pros and cons, she will, relentlessly fight to get the best outcome possible for you in light of the informed decision you have made. This attorney will never contact you unless she truly has something to communicate. Again, keeping costs down. Of course, should you require a more hands on approach, Heather and her team are definitely capable of accommodating your needs. Her years of experience are showcased in her insightful and direct communications both with her client, staff and opposing counsel. A divorcing of two people who, at one time, truly loved one another is never an emotionless or easy process. With her many years of experience in this field of law, Heather’s skillset helps to keep things in perspective and she delivers information, whether good or bad, in a factual non-emotional manner that allows her client to make an informed and intelligent decision. I hope that this review of Heather Z. Bliss will help you in your decision to retain her for your legal needs. You will not be disappointed by Heather and her team. Sincerely, Client of a successful outcome

Heather is an amazing attorney!!!! She took over my divorce (custody, child support) case with only a couple of weeks to review before the 1st hearing. At every hearing/meeting, I felt completely secure in her skills (it was very interesting to just sit back and watch her do her thing). My ex used the legal system & various government services (filed motions just to file them, petitioned for a protection order against me, filed a CPS report) to harass me throughout the entire process and Heather helped me remain calm and handled every situation as it came with professionalism, tack and he utmost skill. She provided sound and realistic advice at every turn. Quite frankly, through her guidance during this process, I feel I grew as a person. I felt very blessed to have her represent me.

I highly recommend Heather as your attorney!! My x-husband worked with his family business and hid money to make it look as though we made very little. In mediation Heather would not back down and made sure I walked away with what I rightfully deserved. She knew exactly how to handle my situation. She is very confident in her ability and every time I spoke with her I knew my case was in good hands. She truly wanted the best for me and cared. She pointed out things that I would not have thought of and how the decisions I made today would affect me and my children in the future. I feel very lucky to have stumbled across Heather; I know that my case would not have had the outcome it did if I had used anyone else!

First of all, Heather was recommended to me by other attorney’s outside of Pierce county speaking to her level of respect with in the world of law. Heather Bliss was among this short list of recommendations. I had met with another attorney who made me feel like they were not interested in me or my situation. Then I met with Heather. I instantly felt at ease. Heather gave me so many more options giving me hope that my problems weren’t so giant sized. Her and her staff responded quickly with each concern. Heather cares deeply about her clients, sets goals, takes action to reach those goals, and with her depth of experience she is able to adapt to whatever comes her way during the journey to closure in a divorce. Heather represented me in my divorce, keeping me grounded along the way with a very difficult Ex-husband who was representing himself and who had created many hurdles. Heather treated him with respect and applied the appropriate amount of pressure to solve the matters at hand. It is clear to me that Heather has the respect of her colleagues and a great reputation with the Judges. I am glad I had her on my side in the court room! Heather won every case for me and was a huge support to me in that difficult time. She is compassionate and an excellent attorney. I would and HAVE referred friends – she is the one you want by your side.

Heather Bliss is upfront and honest. She does not waste your money chasing things that are not important or things that are not realistic. I appreciate her honesty and attention to detail and it is clear she is highly respected by her peers in the courtroom. She truly cares about what is best for your child and leaves nothing unattended to. I refer her any chance I get as I know they will be in good hands. She is a person will realistic expectations, integrity and is very sharp. Highly recommend!

I had a difficult time finding representation because I live overseas. Attorney Bliss and her entire TEAM were so professional and supportive. The time zones did not challenge them I am so thankful for their support during challenging times in a difficult situation.

It's never pleasant to go through a divorce, but if you have to go through one you might as well have the best people on your side. Heather Bliss protected me from start to finish. My case was so sensitive at the beginning that she opened her office and met me on a Sunday. I'm forever thankful. If you ever have to experience what I went through then Heather and her team are who you need.

Heather Bliss and Staff are wonderful! Heather is a genuine caring individual who will make sure you and your loved ones are best served. Although she is fantastic she does not allow ego to drive your case, she is realistic, honest, compassionate and will not waste your time or money chasing frivolous things. She will put your mind at ease the first time you meet, she is incredibly knowledgable and her work comes from the heart. I have used her a couple times and she made the process run as smoothly and stress free as possible. Asset the the legal field and her clients.

I hired Heather after I had the same lawyer for 3 plus years. I had been through a very nasty divorce, a revised parenting plan right after my divorce and battles over child support. I was trying to obtain passports for my children which my ex husband was not wanting to cooperate with. So that's when I hired Heather. I met with her one morning and right away I knew she was a good fit for me. She was not going to back down from my ex and was not afraid to rock the boat a little. She told me my case needed a change in tone and that's exactly what she did. She changed the tone of my case. In court she was very assertive and not going to take anyone's crap. The look on my ex husbands face was priceless. I think his eyeballs almost popped out of his head when she spoke. My other lawyer was very soft spoken and not very assertive, so he was used to pushing her around, but not Heather. She was not going to let that happen. She fought for me in court and it paid off. I ended up getting everything I wanted that day. I was amazed at her professionalism. I would totally recommend her, especially if you are in a really nasty divorce or custody battle. She and her staff guided me the entire way. Through countless emails and phone calls they were able to help me respond to my ex husbands emails in a way that would be positive for me in court. I think that is a huge factor when hiring a lawyer. You need their guidance that's why you hired them. At times I have felt very hopeless in my situation with my ex husband, but now I have more hope that the future will be better because of Heather's help.

The law office of Heather Bliss came into my life un-expectantly and it turned out to be a true blessing in disguise. I was facing a serious challenge. I was being falsely accused of some serious allegations by my ex-husband who is a police officer and in turn was facing an uphill battle. I was represented by a different attorney for years because my divorce was very contentious but I always felt underrepresented and felt bullied by my ex’s legal counsel. The moment I called Heather Bliss’s office, I knew I made a good decision. Her legal assistant, Jessica, was very professional and understanding of my situation and relayed the urgency of my case to Heather who then saw me the same day for a consultation which is unheard of. When I arrived to her office, Heather was pro-active and had already looked up information about my case. Her level of preparation and thoroughness was impressive. It was at the consultation that Heather immediately noticed that my ex had filed documentation with the court to fight for full custody with his false accusations. This of course sent me into a whirlwind of panic but Heather took charge immediately. I explained my situation to her and she listened with empathy, was very understanding and made me feel like I was not just another case. She made me feel like my difficult situation was just as important to her as it was to me. Heather succinctly and thoroughly advised me on the pros and cons of each course of action and broke down each step with concrete instructions. Throughout the process, Heather and her legal team were quick to respond to any questions that I may have and kept me informed every step of the way. Heather is very knowledgeable about the law, detail-oriented and aggressive when she needs to be to fight for what is right. Heather’s professionalism, thorough preparation with her cases and attention to legal details are exemplified in the court room where her effective communication skills, assertiveness and confidence show through. I have no doubt that Heather’s expertise and passion for fighting for her clients allowed me to win my case, regain control of my life and put my mind at ease during a very stressful and challenging time. If I could do it all over again, I would have retained Heather from the beginning to avoid all the problems that surfaced because I was not represented properly from the get go. Nevertheless, I am happy and relieved to have finally found an attorney that is invested in her clients, personable and knowledgeable of legal details. Rest assured that you will be in very good hands if you have the law office of Heather Bliss on your side.

I had the pleasure to work with Heather and her team for over a year as we slogged through the myriad details of my 24 year marriage, separation and ultimate divorce. First and foremost Heather is a listener. She pays thoughtful attention to what you have to say. By that I mean, should you begin to digress or stray from the subject at hand, she has the ability to tactfully bring you back on point so as not to waste your investment in her time. More importantly, after you have provided her with, what you may feel are, salient and pertinent points, she intuitively asks questions that strike through the emotion and get directly to the heart of the case. Again, this saves you on your investment, in both your and her time. Throughout each of your conferences, Heather continually inquires as to whether she has a correct understanding of what you are saying and if you are comfortable with the progression and direction that she and the case are taking. Heather takes a team approach when she takes you on as a client. She sets extremely high expectations for herself, her paralegal and legal assistant in their handling of your case. From my standpoint, when her client is an involved participant with her team, efficiency improves, which in turn, increases the possibilities of a successful outcome. This means, again from my point of view, that when you approach Heather for representation, “have your ducks in a row.” Meaning, that if you want to keep costs to a minimum and have the greatest possibility for a positive outcome in your case, be proactive. When you show up for your initial consultation, first, and foremost, try to have your emotions in check. This will not only save time but in turn allow for insightful discussion of the facts. Next, have with you, your estimate of assets and liabilities along with a basic idea of the outcome you wish to see in your case. Finally, Heather will explain in depth and in understandable language, the facts of your case, possible strategies and anticipated outcome. She will take whatever time it takes to make sure you understand the ramifications, both legal and personal, of any decision you may make.

From my standpoint, when her client is an involved participant with her team, efficiency improves, which in turn, increases the possibilities of a successful outcome. This means, again from my point of view, that when you approach Heather for representation, “have your ducks in a row.” Meaning, that if you want to keep costs to a minimum and have the greatest possibility for a positive outcome in your case, be proactive. When you show up for your initial consultation, first, and foremost, try to have your emotions in check. This will not only save time but in turn allow for insightful discussion of the facts. Next, have with you, your estimate of assets and liabilities along with a basic idea of the outcome you wish to see in your case. Finally, Heather will explain in depth and in understandable language, the facts of your case, possible strategies and anticipated outcome. She will take whatever time it takes to make sure you understand the ramifications, both legal and personal, of any decision you may make. Even if she does not fully agree with your decision after you have been explained the pros and cons, she will, relentlessly fight to get the best outcome possible for you in light of the informed decision you have made. This attorney will never contact you unless she truly has something to communicate. Again, keeping costs down. Of course, should you require a more hands on approach, Heather and her team are definitely capable of accommodating your needs. Her years of experience are showcased in her insightful and direct communications both with her client, staff and opposing counsel. A divorcing of two people who, at one time, truly loved one another is never an emotionless or easy process. With her many years of experience in this field of law, Heather’s skillset helps to keep things in perspective and she delivers information, whether good or bad, in a factual non-emotional manner that allows her client to make an informed and intelligent decision. I hope that this review of Heather Z. Bliss will help you in your decision to retain her for your legal needs. You will not be disappointed by Heather and her team. Sincerely, Client of a successful outcome

Heather is an amazing attorney!!!! She took over my divorce (custody, child support) case with only a couple of weeks to review before the 1st hearing. At every hearing/meeting, I felt completely secure in her skills (it was very interesting to just sit back and watch her do her thing). My ex used the legal system & various government services (filed motions just to file them, petitioned for a protection order against me, filed a CPS report) to harass me throughout the entire process and Heather helped me remain calm and handled every situation as it came with professionalism, tack and he utmost skill. She provided sound and realistic advice at every turn. Quite frankly, through her guidance during this process, I feel I grew as a person. I felt very blessed to have her represent me.

I highly recommend Heather as your attorney!! My x-husband worked with his family business and hid money to make it look as though we made very little. In mediation Heather would not back down and made sure I walked away with what I rightfully deserved. She knew exactly how to handle my situation. She is very confident in her ability and every time I spoke with her I knew my case was in good hands. She truly wanted the best for me and cared. She pointed out things that I would not have thought of and how the decisions I made today would affect me and my children in the future. I feel very lucky to have stumbled across Heather; I know that my case would not have had the outcome it did if I had used anyone else!

First of all, Heather was recommended to me by other attorney’s outside of Pierce county speaking to her level of respect with in the world of law. Heather Bliss was among this short list of recommendations. I had met with another attorney who made me feel like they were not interested in me or my situation. Then I met with Heather. I instantly felt at ease. Heather gave me so many more options giving me hope that my problems weren’t so giant sized. Her and her staff responded quickly with each concern. Heather cares deeply about her clients, sets goals, takes action to reach those goals, and with her depth of experience she is able to adapt to whatever comes her way during the journey to closure in a divorce. Heather represented me in my divorce, keeping me grounded along the way with a very difficult Ex-husband who was representing himself and who had created many hurdles. Heather treated him with respect and applied the appropriate amount of pressure to solve the matters at hand. It is clear to me that Heather has the respect of her colleagues and a great reputation with the Judges. I am glad I had her on my side in the court room! Heather won every case for me and was a huge support to me in that difficult time. She is compassionate and an excellent attorney. I would and HAVE referred friends – she is the one you want by your side.

Heather Bliss is upfront and honest. She does not waste your money chasing things that are not important or things that are not realistic. I appreciate her honesty and attention to detail and it is clear she is highly respected by her peers in the courtroom. She truly cares about what is best for your child and leaves nothing unattended to. I refer her any chance I get as I know they will be in good hands. She is a person will realistic expectations, integrity and is very sharp. Highly recommend!

I had a difficult time finding representation because I live overseas. Attorney Bliss and her entire TEAM were so professional and supportive. The time zones did not challenge them I am so thankful for their support during challenging times in a difficult situation.

It's never pleasant to go through a divorce, but if you have to go through one you might as well have the best people on your side. Heather Bliss protected me from start to finish. My case was so sensitive at the beginning that she opened her office and met me on a Sunday. I'm forever thankful. If you ever have to experience what I went through then Heather and her team are who you need.

Heather Bliss and Staff are wonderful! Heather is a genuine caring individual who will make sure you and your loved ones are best served. Although she is fantastic she does not allow ego to drive your case, she is realistic, honest, compassionate and will not waste your time or money chasing frivolous things. She will put your mind at ease the first time you meet, she is incredibly knowledgable and her work comes from the heart. I have used her a couple times and she made the process run as smoothly and stress free as possible. Asset the the legal field and her clients.

I hired Heather after I had the same lawyer for 3 plus years. I had been through a very nasty divorce, a revised parenting plan right after my divorce and battles over child support. I was trying to obtain passports for my children which my ex husband was not wanting to cooperate with. So that's when I hired Heather. I met with her one morning and right away I knew she was a good fit for me. She was not going to back down from my ex and was not afraid to rock the boat a little. She told me my case needed a change in tone and that's exactly what she did. She changed the tone of my case. In court she was very assertive and not going to take anyone's crap. The look on my ex husbands face was priceless. I think his eyeballs almost popped out of his head when she spoke. My other lawyer was very soft spoken and not very assertive, so he was used to pushing her around, but not Heather. She was not going to let that happen. She fought for me in court and it paid off. I ended up getting everything I wanted that day. I was amazed at her professionalism. I would totally recommend her, especially if you are in a really nasty divorce or custody battle. She and her staff guided me the entire way. Through countless emails and phone calls they were able to help me respond to my ex husbands emails in a way that would be positive for me in court. I think that is a huge factor when hiring a lawyer. You need their guidance that's why you hired them. At times I have felt very hopeless in my situation with my ex husband, but now I have more hope that the future will be better because of Heather's help.

The law office of Heather Bliss came into my life un-expectantly and it turned out to be a true blessing in disguise. I was facing a serious challenge. I was being falsely accused of some serious allegations by my ex-husband who is a police officer and in turn was facing an uphill battle. I was represented by a different attorney for years because my divorce was very contentious but I always felt underrepresented and felt bullied by my ex’s legal counsel. The moment I called Heather Bliss’s office, I knew I made a good decision. Her legal assistant, Jessica, was very professional and understanding of my situation and relayed the urgency of my case to Heather who then saw me the same day for a consultation which is unheard of. When I arrived to her office, Heather was pro-active and had already looked up information about my case. Her level of preparation and thoroughness was impressive. It was at the consultation that Heather immediately noticed that my ex had filed documentation with the court to fight for full custody with his false accusations. This of course sent me into a whirlwind of panic but Heather took charge immediately. I explained my situation to her and she listened with empathy, was very understanding and made me feel like I was not just another case. She made me feel like my difficult situation was just as important to her as it was to me. Heather succinctly and thoroughly advised me on the pros and cons of each course of action and broke down each step with concrete instructions. Throughout the process, Heather and her legal team were quick to respond to any questions that I may have and kept me informed every step of the way. Heather is very knowledgeable about the law, detail-oriented and aggressive when she needs to be to fight for what is right. Heather’s professionalism, thorough preparation with her cases and attention to legal details are exemplified in the court room where her effective communication skills, assertiveness and confidence show through. I have no doubt that Heather’s expertise and passion for fighting for her clients allowed me to win my case, regain control of my life and put my mind at ease during a very stressful and challenging time. If I could do it all over again, I would have retained Heather from the beginning to avoid all the problems that surfaced because I was not represented properly from the get go. Nevertheless, I am happy and relieved to have finally found an attorney that is invested in her clients, personable and knowledgeable of legal details. Rest assured that you will be in very good hands if you have the law office of Heather Bliss on your side.

I had the pleasure to work with Heather and her team for over a year as we slogged through the myriad details of my 24 year marriage, separation and ultimate divorce. First and foremost Heather is a listener. She pays thoughtful attention to what you have to say. By that I mean, should you begin to digress or stray from the subject at hand, she has the ability to tactfully bring you back on point so as not to waste your investment in her time. More importantly, after you have provided her with, what you may feel are, salient and pertinent points, she intuitively asks questions that strike through the emotion and get directly to the heart of the case. Again, this saves you on your investment, in both your and her time. Throughout each of your conferences, Heather continually inquires as to whether she has a correct understanding of what you are saying and if you are comfortable with the progression and direction that she and the case are taking.

By that I mean, should you begin to digress or stray from the subject at hand, she has the ability to tactfully bring you back on point so as not to waste your investment in her time. More importantly, after you have provided her with, what you may feel are, salient and pertinent points, she intuitively asks questions that strike through the emotion and get directly to the heart of the case. Again, this saves you on your investment, in both your and her time. Throughout each of your conferences, Heather continually inquires as to whether she has a correct understanding of what you are saying and if you are comfortable with the progression and direction that she and the case are taking. Heather takes a team approach when she takes you on as a client. She sets extremely high expectations for herself, her paralegal and legal assistant in their handling of your case. From my standpoint, when her client is an involved participant with her team, efficiency improves, which in turn, increases the possibilities of a successful outcome. This means, again from my point of view, that when you approach Heather for representation, “have your ducks in a row.” Meaning, that if you want to keep costs to a minimum and have the greatest possibility for a positive outcome in your case, be proactive. When you show up for your initial consultation, first, and foremost, try to have your emotions in check. This will not only save time but in turn allow for insightful discussion of the facts. Next, have with you, your estimate of assets and liabilities along with a basic idea of the outcome you wish to see in your case. Finally, Heather will explain in depth and in understandable language, the facts of your case, possible strategies and anticipated outcome. She will take whatever time it takes to make sure you understand the ramifications, both legal and personal, of any decision you may make. Even if she does not fully agree with your decision after you have been explained the pros and cons, she will, relentlessly fight to get the best outcome possible for you in light of the informed decision you have made. This attorney will never contact you unless she truly has something to communicate. Again, keeping costs down. Of course, should you require a more hands on approach, Heather and her team are definitely capable of accommodating your needs. Her years of experience are showcased in her insightful and direct communications both with her client, staff and opposing counsel. A divorcing of two people who, at one time, truly loved one another is never an emotionless or easy process. With her many years of experience in this field of law, Heather’s skillset helps to keep things in perspective and she delivers information, whether good or bad, in a factual non-emotional manner that allows her client to make an informed and intelligent decision. I hope that this review of Heather Z. Bliss will help you in your decision to retain her for your legal needs. You will not be disappointed by Heather and her team. Sincerely, Client of a successful outcome

Heather is an amazing attorney!!!! She took over my divorce (custody, child support) case with only a couple of weeks to review before the 1st hearing. At every hearing/meeting, I felt completely secure in her skills (it was very interesting to just sit back and watch her do her thing). My ex used the legal system & various government services (filed motions just to file them, petitioned for a protection order against me, filed a CPS report) to harass me throughout the entire process and Heather helped me remain calm and handled every situation as it came with professionalism, tack and he utmost skill. She provided sound and realistic advice at every turn. Quite frankly, through her guidance during this process, I feel I grew as a person. I felt very blessed to have her represent me.

I highly recommend Heather as your attorney!! My x-husband worked with his family business and hid money to make it look as though we made very little. In mediation Heather would not back down and made sure I walked away with what I rightfully deserved. She knew exactly how to handle my situation. She is very confident in her ability and every time I spoke with her I knew my case was in good hands. She truly wanted the best for me and cared. She pointed out things that I would not have thought of and how the decisions I made today would affect me and my children in the future. I feel very lucky to have stumbled across Heather; I know that my case would not have had the outcome it did if I had used anyone else!

First of all, Heather was recommended to me by other attorney’s outside of Pierce county speaking to her level of respect with in the world of law. Heather Bliss was among this short list of recommendations. I had met with another attorney who made me feel like they were not interested in me or my situation. Then I met with Heather. I instantly felt at ease. Heather gave me so many more options giving me hope that my problems weren’t so giant sized. Her and her staff responded quickly with each concern. Heather cares deeply about her clients, sets goals, takes action to reach those goals, and with her depth of experience she is able to adapt to whatever comes her way during the journey to closure in a divorce. Heather represented me in my divorce, keeping me grounded along the way with a very difficult Ex-husband who was representing himself and who had created many hurdles. Heather treated him with respect and applied the appropriate amount of pressure to solve the matters at hand. It is clear to me that Heather has the respect of her colleagues and a great reputation with the Judges. I am glad I had her on my side in the court room! Heather won every case for me and was a huge support to me in that difficult time. She is compassionate and an excellent attorney. I would and HAVE referred friends – she is the one you want by your side.

I appreciate her honesty and attention to detail and it is clear she is highly respected by her peers in the courtroom.

I had a difficult time finding representation because I live overseas. Attorney Bliss and her entire TEAM were so professional and supportive. The time zones did not challenge them I am so thankful for their support during challenging times in a difficult situation.

It's never pleasant to go through a divorce, but if you have to go through one you might as well have the best people on your side. Heather Bliss protected me from start to finish. My case was so sensitive at the beginning that she opened her office and met me on a Sunday. I'm forever thankful. If you ever have to experience what I went through then Heather and her team are who you need.

Heather Bliss and Staff are wonderful! Heather is a genuine caring individual who will make sure you and your loved ones are best served. Although she is fantastic she does not allow ego to drive your case, she is realistic, honest, compassionate and will not waste your time or money chasing frivolous things. She will put your mind at ease the first time you meet, she is incredibly knowledgable and her work comes from the heart. I have used her a couple times and she made the process run as smoothly and stress free as possible. Asset the the legal field and her clients.

I hired Heather after I had the same lawyer for 3 plus years. I had been through a very nasty divorce, a revised parenting plan right after my divorce and battles over child support. I was trying to obtain passports for my children which my ex husband was not wanting to cooperate with. So that's when I hired Heather. I met with her one morning and right away I knew she was a good fit for me. She was not going to back down from my ex and was not afraid to rock the boat a little. She told me my case needed a change in tone and that's exactly what she did. She changed the tone of my case. In court she was very assertive and not going to take anyone's crap. The look on my ex husbands face was priceless. I think his eyeballs almost popped out of his head when she spoke. My other lawyer was very soft spoken and not very assertive, so he was used to pushing her around, but not Heather. She was not going to let that happen. She fought for me in court and it paid off. I ended up getting everything I wanted that day. I was amazed at her professionalism. I would totally recommend her, especially if you are in a really nasty divorce or custody battle. She and her staff guided me the entire way. Through countless emails and phone calls they were able to help me respond to my ex husbands emails in a way that would be positive for me in court. I think that is a huge factor when hiring a lawyer. You need their guidance that's why you hired them. At times I have felt very hopeless in my situation with my ex husband, but now I have more hope that the future will be better because of Heather's help.

The law office of Heather Bliss came into my life un-expectantly and it turned out to be a true blessing in disguise. I was facing a serious challenge. I was being falsely accused of some serious allegations by my ex-husband who is a police officer and in turn was facing an uphill battle. I was represented by a different attorney for years because my divorce was very contentious but I always felt underrepresented and felt bullied by my ex’s legal counsel. The moment I called Heather Bliss’s office, I knew I made a good decision. Her legal assistant, Jessica, was very professional and understanding of my situation and relayed the urgency of my case to Heather who then saw me the same day for a consultation which is unheard of. When I arrived to her office, Heather was pro-active and had already looked up information about my case. Her level of preparation and thoroughness was impressive. It was at the consultation that Heather immediately noticed that my ex had filed documentation with the court to fight for full custody with his false accusations. This of course sent me into a whirlwind of panic but Heather took charge immediately. I explained my situation to her and she listened with empathy, was very understanding and made me feel like I was not just another case. She made me feel like my difficult situation was just as important to her as it was to me. Heather succinctly and thoroughly advised me on the pros and cons of each course of action and broke down each step with concrete instructions. Throughout the process, Heather and her legal team were quick to respond to any questions that I may have and kept me informed every step of the way. Heather is very knowledgeable about the law, detail-oriented and aggressive when she needs to be to fight for what is right. Heather’s professionalism, thorough preparation with her cases and attention to legal details are exemplified in the court room where her effective communication skills, assertiveness and confidence show through. I have no doubt that Heather’s expertise and passion for fighting for her clients allowed me to win my case, regain control of my life and put my mind at ease during a very stressful and challenging time. If I could do it all over again, I would have retained Heather from the beginning to avoid all the problems that surfaced because I was not represented properly from the get go. Nevertheless, I am happy and relieved to have finally found an attorney that is invested in her clients, personable and knowledgeable of legal details. Rest assured that you will be in very good hands if you have the law office of Heather Bliss on your side.
