I hired Compass Legal Services in 2017 to help me with a legal separation. Because my case involved not only complex financial matters but also a complicated situation regarding medical insurance I depend on but stood to lose in a divorce, I experienced terrible anxiety about the whole process. Heather and the staff at Compass Legal Services became like family to me during the many months it took to settle my case. Heather was able to help me ensure that I would be able to keep my medical insurance and have the resources I need to start over after twenty four years of marriage. They have continued to help me wrap up loose ends and red tape issues. I hope I never have to go through a situation like this again in my life, but if I ever did I would not hesitate to reach out to Heather and her staff for help. Heather is a smart and methodical divorce lawyer and I can attest that her strategic ability is exceptional and I highly recommend Compass Legal Services to absolutely anyone in Kitsap County who needs a divorce lawyer. Thank you, Alina

You are a godsend, lady. Better than that: thanks for spending years in law school, practicing and gaining the experience to keep me from effing this up. Heather provides fair-minded proactive advice, guidance and services. Her integrity, temperance, forbearance and quick response makes her the best attorney in Silverdale that I know of. If you need help, check with her right away; she's honest about what she can do for you, follows through and is an amazing person.

I saw her for a consultation. She had answers for all of my questions. She looked over my paperwork and gave me great advice. Found mistakes i made and how to fix them. She also have me an idea of worst and best outcome so I could have a clearer idea of what could happen next. She and her Secretary were friendly and very understanding.

I originally contacted Heather about doing an uncontested divorce. This quickly turned into a 2 1/2 year contested nightmare! Heather, was with me every step of the way, always available for consultation, advice and shoulder crying. She was very reasonable with her billing time and cost. She was also good at weighing the pros and cons as to whether we should settle or go to trial. The only thing I would suggest is that she be more aggressive, she is almost too nice for this type of conflict.

I hired Heather to produce several contract templates for my business. I needed a standard Services Contract and a Non-Compete Agreement. Not only did she produce these two contracts ahead of schedule, she provided me with several addendum, at no additional cost, that I had not even thought to need much less ask for. Heather and her staff are friendly, knowledgeable and attentive to detail. I look forward to a long relationship with Compass Legal Services.

Heather did a great job helping me resolve an issue with a collection agency on a bill I did not owe. She quickly got the bill dismissed and saved me from a ding in my credit. She was also very personable, ethical and genuinely wants to help others. I highly recommend her!!

My husband and I were going out of town last month and once again the realization of not having a Will became apparent. We have been meaning to purchase a Will for many year but just haven't gotten to it. I contacted Heather Forrler at Compass Law and she got back to me the same day. We corresponded a few times via e-mail and she sent me a review of our Will 2 days later. We were so pleased with how professional, helpful, friendly and swiftly Heather was to work with we and would highly recommend her for your legal needs.

Very good experience for a difficult time in my life. I recommend Heather for anyone contemplating divorce.

Ms. Forrler could not have handled my case any less professionally. She failed in many regards, and my case was not particularly complicated. Her failures caused me to hire a new attorney solely to address the egregious damages she caused to me and my children throughout the legal process. I relied on her for legal advice and representation and was accurate and timely in my communications with her at all times. However, Ms. Forrler made tremendous and inexcusable errors in my case. She forwarded my very confidential email and information sent exclusively to her - directly to the opposing counsel in its entirety without my consent. She failed to be a conscious -- never-mind effective, representative in any settlement negotiations. This was in part because she failed to conduct the most necessary inquiry into the facts of my case which ultimately resulted in major losses to me. She attempted to postpone every hearing in my case because she was not prepared, or ill. She advised me incorrectly with regard to the state laws, when I asked important questions. She was utterly incompetent and unprepared at trial, which caused me to discontinue it. She allowed me to enter a settlement meeting without discussing any necessary provisions with me, and without notifying me that a transcript would be taken or there was any final or binding legal process taking place. A non-lawyer would not have prior knowledge of legal processes. Her missteps caused major errors in all of my legal proceedings. She "forgot" to notify me of the date of my very, very important final decree hearing and subsequently forgot to prepare with me in the weeks leading up to it, resulting in a final decree that I disagree with. I did not even know it was on the court calendar. She then agreed to major provisions with opposing counsel against my consent or without any notification to me at that hearing, because I was not present. The series of events is very shocking. Ms. Forrler had no knowledge of very necessary preparation and provisions to consider in a dissolution agreement, so she was unable to counsel me to any adequate degree. In addition, her fees were misrepresented, inflated to a large degree and highly unreasonable, for which I complained. She kept the balance of a requested advance payment for four anticipated days of trial, when there was only one. I certainly don't think she should profit from the damaging effects of her representation against me. I feel that through her incompetencies, she actually worked for opposing counsel and not for me. Upon firing her for all of these inexcusable acts, and after asking her what I could possibly do to address the disagreements I had with the "final" document in the court, she failed to notify me that I had the right to an appeal within a certain timeframe, which I did not know. You are very well-advised to choose another attorney. There are several good ones in the same area. As I said, I cannot imagine how my case could have been handled any worse.

Ms. Forrler was unable/unwilling to help me! Even after taking a retainer, discussing the case,, her skills and my needs.....EPIC failure when it came to being in Court! She failed to provide me court documents in a reasonable & timely manner (I received than 48 before court), did not send me the pleadings associated with the hearing until AFTER the court date passed. She never attempted to introduce new evidence that could have helped stop a contempt charge and reduction on my maintenance. She did not bring forth my financial situation that I was already living on only $31 a month (a declaration was made) but she did not attempt to help me by raising my financial distress prior to court, at the court hearing and is now far worse situation I am forced into. She is unwilling to be proactive with or for a client. I would warn people to not consult with her, even for uncontested matters. She lacks ability to work for the clients needs. She spent more time talking to opposing counsel than she did with me that day, and the Sat just before combined. My concerns seemed to be unimportant and left unaddressed after she was paid the retainer, much to my detriment in the end.

Upon firing her for all of these inexcusable acts, and after asking her what I could possibly do to address the disagreements I had with the "final" document in the court, she failed to notify me that I had the right to an appeal within a certain timeframe, which I did not know. You are very well-advised to choose another attorney. There are several good ones in the same area. As I said, I cannot imagine how my case could have been handled any worse.

Ms. Forrler was unable/unwilling to help me! Even after taking a retainer, discussing the case,, her skills and my needs.....EPIC failure when it came to being in Court! She failed to provide me court documents in a reasonable & timely manner (I received than 48 before court), did not send me the pleadings associated with the hearing until AFTER the court date passed. She never attempted to introduce new evidence that could have helped stop a contempt charge and reduction on my maintenance. She did not bring forth my financial situation that I was already living on only $31 a month (a declaration was made) but she did not attempt to help me by raising my financial distress prior to court, at the court hearing and is now far worse situation I am forced into. She is unwilling to be proactive with or for a client. I would warn people to not consult with her, even for uncontested matters. She lacks ability to work for the clients needs. She spent more time talking to opposing counsel than she did with me that day, and the Sat just before combined. My concerns seemed to be unimportant and left unaddressed after she was paid the retainer, much to my detriment in the end.

I hired Compass Legal Services in 2017 to help me with a legal separation. Because my case involved not only complex financial matters but also a complicated situation regarding medical insurance I depend on but stood to lose in a divorce, I experienced terrible anxiety about the whole process. Heather and the staff at Compass Legal Services became like family to me during the many months it took to settle my case. Heather was able to help me ensure that I would be able to keep my medical insurance and have the resources I need to start over after twenty four years of marriage. They have continued to help me wrap up loose ends and red tape issues. I hope I never have to go through a situation like this again in my life, but if I ever did I would not hesitate to reach out to Heather and her staff for help. Heather is a smart and methodical divorce lawyer and I can attest that her strategic ability is exceptional and I highly recommend Compass Legal Services to absolutely anyone in Kitsap County who needs a divorce lawyer. Thank you, Alina

You are a godsend, lady. Better than that: thanks for spending years in law school, practicing and gaining the experience to keep me from effing this up. Heather provides fair-minded proactive advice, guidance and services. Her integrity, temperance, forbearance and quick response makes her the best attorney in Silverdale that I know of. If you need help, check with her right away; she's honest about what she can do for you, follows through and is an amazing person.

I saw her for a consultation. She had answers for all of my questions. She looked over my paperwork and gave me great advice. Found mistakes i made and how to fix them. She also have me an idea of worst and best outcome so I could have a clearer idea of what could happen next. She and her Secretary were friendly and very understanding.

I originally contacted Heather about doing an uncontested divorce. This quickly turned into a 2 1/2 year contested nightmare! Heather, was with me every step of the way, always available for consultation, advice and shoulder crying. She was very reasonable with her billing time and cost. She was also good at weighing the pros and cons as to whether we should settle or go to trial. The only thing I would suggest is that she be more aggressive, she is almost too nice for this type of conflict.

I hired Heather to produce several contract templates for my business. I needed a standard Services Contract and a Non-Compete Agreement. Not only did she produce these two contracts ahead of schedule, she provided me with several addendum, at no additional cost, that I had not even thought to need much less ask for. Heather and her staff are friendly, knowledgeable and attentive to detail. I look forward to a long relationship with Compass Legal Services.

Heather did a great job helping me resolve an issue with a collection agency on a bill I did not owe. She quickly got the bill dismissed and saved me from a ding in my credit. She was also very personable, ethical and genuinely wants to help others. I highly recommend her!!

My husband and I were going out of town last month and once again the realization of not having a Will became apparent. We have been meaning to purchase a Will for many year but just haven't gotten to it. I contacted Heather Forrler at Compass Law and she got back to me the same day. We corresponded a few times via e-mail and she sent me a review of our Will 2 days later. We were so pleased with how professional, helpful, friendly and swiftly Heather was to work with we and would highly recommend her for your legal needs.

Very good experience for a difficult time in my life. I recommend Heather for anyone contemplating divorce.

Ms. Forrler could not have handled my case any less professionally. She failed in many regards, and my case was not particularly complicated. Her failures caused me to hire a new attorney solely to address the egregious damages she caused to me and my children throughout the legal process. I relied on her for legal advice and representation and was accurate and timely in my communications with her at all times. However, Ms. Forrler made tremendous and inexcusable errors in my case. She forwarded my very confidential email and information sent exclusively to her - directly to the opposing counsel in its entirety without my consent. She failed to be a conscious -- never-mind effective, representative in any settlement negotiations. This was in part because she failed to conduct the most necessary inquiry into the facts of my case which ultimately resulted in major losses to me. She attempted to postpone every hearing in my case because she was not prepared, or ill. She advised me incorrectly with regard to the state laws, when I asked important questions. She was utterly incompetent and unprepared at trial, which caused me to discontinue it. She allowed me to enter a settlement meeting without discussing any necessary provisions with me, and without notifying me that a transcript would be taken or there was any final or binding legal process taking place. A non-lawyer would not have prior knowledge of legal processes. Her missteps caused major errors in all of my legal proceedings. She "forgot" to notify me of the date of my very, very important final decree hearing and subsequently forgot to prepare with me in the weeks leading up to it, resulting in a final decree that I disagree with. I did not even know it was on the court calendar. She then agreed to major provisions with opposing counsel against my consent or without any notification to me at that hearing, because I was not present. The series of events is very shocking. Ms. Forrler had no knowledge of very necessary preparation and provisions to consider in a dissolution agreement, so she was unable to counsel me to any adequate degree. In addition, her fees were misrepresented, inflated to a large degree and highly unreasonable, for which I complained. She kept the balance of a requested advance payment for four anticipated days of trial, when there was only one. I certainly don't think she should profit from the damaging effects of her representation against me. I feel that through her incompetencies, she actually worked for opposing counsel and not for me.

She failed to be a conscious -- never-mind effective, representative in any settlement negotiations. This was in part because she failed to conduct the most necessary inquiry into the facts of my case which ultimately resulted in major losses to me. She attempted to postpone every hearing in my case because she was not prepared, or ill. She advised me incorrectly with regard to the state laws, when I asked important questions. She was utterly incompetent and unprepared at trial, which caused me to discontinue it. She allowed me to enter a settlement meeting without discussing any necessary provisions with me, and without notifying me that a transcript would be taken or there was any final or binding legal process taking place. A non-lawyer would not have prior knowledge of legal processes. Her missteps caused major errors in all of my legal proceedings. She "forgot" to notify me of the date of my very, very important final decree hearing and subsequently forgot to prepare with me in the weeks leading up to it, resulting in a final decree that I disagree with. I did not even know it was on the court calendar. She then agreed to major provisions with opposing counsel against my consent or without any notification to me at that hearing, because I was not present. The series of events is very shocking. Ms. Forrler had no knowledge of very necessary preparation and provisions to consider in a dissolution agreement, so she was unable to counsel me to any adequate degree. In addition, her fees were misrepresented, inflated to a large degree and highly unreasonable, for which I complained. She kept the balance of a requested advance payment for four anticipated days of trial, when there was only one. I certainly don't think she should profit from the damaging effects of her representation against me. I feel that through her incompetencies, she actually worked for opposing counsel and not for me. Upon firing her for all of these inexcusable acts, and after asking her what I could possibly do to address the disagreements I had with the "final" document in the court, she failed to notify me that I had the right to an appeal within a certain timeframe, which I did not know. You are very well-advised to choose another attorney. There are several good ones in the same area. As I said, I cannot imagine how my case could have been handled any worse.

Ms. Forrler was unable/unwilling to help me! Even after taking a retainer, discussing the case,, her skills and my needs.....EPIC failure when it came to being in Court! She failed to provide me court documents in a reasonable & timely manner (I received than 48 before court), did not send me the pleadings associated with the hearing until AFTER the court date passed. She never attempted to introduce new evidence that could have helped stop a contempt charge and reduction on my maintenance. She did not bring forth my financial situation that I was already living on only $31 a month (a declaration was made) but she did not attempt to help me by raising my financial distress prior to court, at the court hearing and is now far worse situation I am forced into. She is unwilling to be proactive with or for a client. I would warn people to not consult with her, even for uncontested matters. She lacks ability to work for the clients needs. She spent more time talking to opposing counsel than she did with me that day, and the Sat just before combined. My concerns seemed to be unimportant and left unaddressed after she was paid the retainer, much to my detriment in the end.

I hired Compass Legal Services in 2017 to help me with a legal separation. Because my case involved not only complex financial matters but also a complicated situation regarding medical insurance I depend on but stood to lose in a divorce, I experienced terrible anxiety about the whole process. Heather and the staff at Compass Legal Services became like family to me during the many months it took to settle my case. Heather was able to help me ensure that I would be able to keep my medical insurance and have the resources I need to start over after twenty four years of marriage. They have continued to help me wrap up loose ends and red tape issues. I hope I never have to go through a situation like this again in my life, but if I ever did I would not hesitate to reach out to Heather and her staff for help. Heather is a smart and methodical divorce lawyer and I can attest that her strategic ability is exceptional and I highly recommend Compass Legal Services to absolutely anyone in Kitsap County who needs a divorce lawyer. Thank you, Alina

You are a godsend, lady. Better than that: thanks for spending years in law school, practicing and gaining the experience to keep me from effing this up. Heather provides fair-minded proactive advice, guidance and services. Her integrity, temperance, forbearance and quick response makes her the best attorney in Silverdale that I know of. If you need help, check with her right away; she's honest about what she can do for you, follows through and is an amazing person.

I saw her for a consultation. She had answers for all of my questions. She looked over my paperwork and gave me great advice. Found mistakes i made and how to fix them. She also have me an idea of worst and best outcome so I could have a clearer idea of what could happen next. She and her Secretary were friendly and very understanding.

I originally contacted Heather about doing an uncontested divorce. This quickly turned into a 2 1/2 year contested nightmare! Heather, was with me every step of the way, always available for consultation, advice and shoulder crying. She was very reasonable with her billing time and cost. She was also good at weighing the pros and cons as to whether we should settle or go to trial. The only thing I would suggest is that she be more aggressive, she is almost too nice for this type of conflict.

I hired Heather to produce several contract templates for my business. I needed a standard Services Contract and a Non-Compete Agreement. Not only did she produce these two contracts ahead of schedule, she provided me with several addendum, at no additional cost, that I had not even thought to need much less ask for. Heather and her staff are friendly, knowledgeable and attentive to detail. I look forward to a long relationship with Compass Legal Services.

Heather did a great job helping me resolve an issue with a collection agency on a bill I did not owe. She quickly got the bill dismissed and saved me from a ding in my credit. She was also very personable, ethical and genuinely wants to help others. I highly recommend her!!

My husband and I were going out of town last month and once again the realization of not having a Will became apparent. We have been meaning to purchase a Will for many year but just haven't gotten to it. I contacted Heather Forrler at Compass Law and she got back to me the same day. We corresponded a few times via e-mail and she sent me a review of our Will 2 days later. We were so pleased with how professional, helpful, friendly and swiftly Heather was to work with we and would highly recommend her for your legal needs.

Very good experience for a difficult time in my life. I recommend Heather for anyone contemplating divorce.

Ms. Forrler could not have handled my case any less professionally. She failed in many regards, and my case was not particularly complicated. Her failures caused me to hire a new attorney solely to address the egregious damages she caused to me and my children throughout the legal process.

Not only did she produce these two contracts ahead of schedule, she provided me with several addendum, at no additional cost, that I had not even thought to need much less ask for. Heather and her staff are friendly, knowledgeable and attentive to detail. I look forward to a long relationship with Compass Legal Services.

Heather did a great job helping me resolve an issue with a collection agency on a bill I did not owe. She quickly got the bill dismissed and saved me from a ding in my credit. She was also very personable, ethical and genuinely wants to help others. I highly recommend her!!

My husband and I were going out of town last month and once again the realization of not having a Will became apparent. We have been meaning to purchase a Will for many year but just haven't gotten to it. I contacted Heather Forrler at Compass Law and she got back to me the same day. We corresponded a few times via e-mail and she sent me a review of our Will 2 days later. We were so pleased with how professional, helpful, friendly and swiftly Heather was to work with we and would highly recommend her for your legal needs.

Very good experience for a difficult time in my life. I recommend Heather for anyone contemplating divorce.

Ms. Forrler could not have handled my case any less professionally. She failed in many regards, and my case was not particularly complicated. Her failures caused me to hire a new attorney solely to address the egregious damages she caused to me and my children throughout the legal process. I relied on her for legal advice and representation and was accurate and timely in my communications with her at all times. However, Ms. Forrler made tremendous and inexcusable errors in my case. She forwarded my very confidential email and information sent exclusively to her - directly to the opposing counsel in its entirety without my consent. She failed to be a conscious -- never-mind effective, representative in any settlement negotiations. This was in part because she failed to conduct the most necessary inquiry into the facts of my case which ultimately resulted in major losses to me. She attempted to postpone every hearing in my case because she was not prepared, or ill. She advised me incorrectly with regard to the state laws, when I asked important questions. She was utterly incompetent and unprepared at trial, which caused me to discontinue it. She allowed me to enter a settlement meeting without discussing any necessary provisions with me, and without notifying me that a transcript would be taken or there was any final or binding legal process taking place. A non-lawyer would not have prior knowledge of legal processes. Her missteps caused major errors in all of my legal proceedings. She "forgot" to notify me of the date of my very, very important final decree hearing and subsequently forgot to prepare with me in the weeks leading up to it, resulting in a final decree that I disagree with. I did not even know it was on the court calendar. She then agreed to major provisions with opposing counsel against my consent or without any notification to me at that hearing, because I was not present. The series of events is very shocking. Ms. Forrler had no knowledge of very necessary preparation and provisions to consider in a dissolution agreement, so she was unable to counsel me to any adequate degree. In addition, her fees were misrepresented, inflated to a large degree and highly unreasonable, for which I complained. She kept the balance of a requested advance payment for four anticipated days of trial, when there was only one. I certainly don't think she should profit from the damaging effects of her representation against me. I feel that through her incompetencies, she actually worked for opposing counsel and not for me. Upon firing her for all of these inexcusable acts, and after asking her what I could possibly do to address the disagreements I had with the "final" document in the court, she failed to notify me that I had the right to an appeal within a certain timeframe, which I did not know. You are very well-advised to choose another attorney. There are several good ones in the same area. As I said, I cannot imagine how my case could have been handled any worse.

Ms. Forrler was unable/unwilling to help me! Even after taking a retainer, discussing the case,, her skills and my needs.....EPIC failure when it came to being in Court! She failed to provide me court documents in a reasonable & timely manner (I received than 48 before court), did not send me the pleadings associated with the hearing until AFTER the court date passed. She never attempted to introduce new evidence that could have helped stop a contempt charge and reduction on my maintenance. She did not bring forth my financial situation that I was already living on only $31 a month (a declaration was made) but she did not attempt to help me by raising my financial distress prior to court, at the court hearing and is now far worse situation I am forced into. She is unwilling to be proactive with or for a client. I would warn people to not consult with her, even for uncontested matters. She lacks ability to work for the clients needs. She spent more time talking to opposing counsel than she did with me that day, and the Sat just before combined. My concerns seemed to be unimportant and left unaddressed after she was paid the retainer, much to my detriment in the end.

I hired Compass Legal Services in 2017 to help me with a legal separation. Because my case involved not only complex financial matters but also a complicated situation regarding medical insurance I depend on but stood to lose in a divorce, I experienced terrible anxiety about the whole process. Heather and the staff at Compass Legal Services became like family to me during the many months it took to settle my case. Heather was able to help me ensure that I would be able to keep my medical insurance and have the resources I need to start over after twenty four years of marriage. They have continued to help me wrap up loose ends and red tape issues. I hope I never have to go through a situation like this again in my life, but if I ever did I would not hesitate to reach out to Heather and her staff for help. Heather is a smart and methodical divorce lawyer and I can attest that her strategic ability is exceptional and I highly recommend Compass Legal Services to absolutely anyone in Kitsap County who needs a divorce lawyer. Thank you, Alina

You are a godsend, lady. Better than that: thanks for spending years in law school, practicing and gaining the experience to keep me from effing this up. Heather provides fair-minded proactive advice, guidance and services. Her integrity, temperance, forbearance and quick response makes her the best attorney in Silverdale that I know of. If you need help, check with her right away; she's honest about what she can do for you, follows through and is an amazing person.

I saw her for a consultation. She had answers for all of my questions. She looked over my paperwork and gave me great advice. Found mistakes i made and how to fix them. She also have me an idea of worst and best outcome so I could have a clearer idea of what could happen next. She and her Secretary were friendly and very understanding.

I originally contacted Heather about doing an uncontested divorce. This quickly turned into a 2 1/2 year contested nightmare! Heather, was with me every step of the way, always available for consultation, advice and shoulder crying. She was very reasonable with her billing time and cost. She was also good at weighing the pros and cons as to whether we should settle or go to trial. The only thing I would suggest is that she be more aggressive, she is almost too nice for this type of conflict.
