Heather Swann provided me top notch service as my Family Lawyer and was worth every single penny spent!! Heather was able to navigate my complex relationship as a Civilian Law Enforcement Officer with the father of my children who is an Active Duty Service member. Insert two teenage kids, a new pregnancy, an AuPair for daycare, and communication while one party was deployed made the entire situation difficult. She didn’t waiver but was direct and up front; managing expectations and tactfully removing the band aid of emotions. With candor and calmness, she sifted through multiple unreasonable, emotionally-based demands made by both parties. She clearly lit the path of the way ahead, ensuring that our resolution put the children’s needs first. Something which can get lost in the emotions of a conflict. I was involved and informed of every decision made, and watched as she went toe to toe with every roadblock and person that stood in the way of our end goal. She is one of the very most competently aggressive lawyers I have the pleasure of working with; that list includes both prosecutors and defense attorneys. There is no other family lawyer I’d use or recommend. I was already divorced so Heather assisted me with Petitions for Modifications, Emergency Restraining Orders, Parenting Plan Revision, Child Support Modifications/Calculations (one worksheet for a deployed status and one for non-deployed as the finances and child custody changes drastically), a very long Mediation, Declarations, Supplemental Declarations, ExParte, and addressing Orders for Hearings.

Heather is personable, straightforward, and consistent in her communication, efforts, and results, to provide me with excellent representation in a "gray divorce". Her wise counsel and saavy negotiating skills allowed me to receive a fair and equitable resolution of assets in mediation, without having to go to trial. She was prudent to keep charges at bay. I am extremely grateful for her work on my case, and the support provided by her firm and staff, in all their interactions with me. I highly recommend Heather as a smart choice for representation.

I hired Heather to represent me when I was in the middle of an emotional and contested separation. My case involved many moving parts, including a spouse in the military, a military deployment and subsequent relocation, a long distance child custody agreement, and my own personal out of state relocation - all happening mid-divorce. My spouse would continue to throw scare tactics my way in an effort to stop divorce proceedings. Heather would quickly remind me to focus on the facts and not worry about all the extra stuff. My favorite quote from Heather was "I will tell you when you need to worry, and now is not the time." I used that phrase as my guiding principle the whole way through the process. Heather is factual, confident, to the point, responsive, and she knows her stuff. I always felt that Heather had my best interest in mind, and appreciated that she would focus on the best path forward while respecting my own personal desires. I highly recommend Heather for any family law issues you may need assistance with. She and her legal team are great! Thank you, Heather!

Heather is an amazing attorney. I'm military and my daughters mother is also which increases the difficulty of the case in my opinion. I was trying to keep my daughter in Washington where she attends school while my ex-wife was set on returning from overseas and moving out of state with her. The original divorce case was occurred out of state which further complicated things. Heather was able to get everything I was asking which ultimately benefited my daughter the most. I will always recommend Heather as an attorney to anyone I know dealing family law issues.

Heather is an amazing family law attorney. Her attention to detail, honest feedback, and genuine concern for her clients was critical to keeping me grounded throughout a very emotional and challenging time. As a military member separating from another military member, achieving balance for our family with minors was critical to maintaining stability. Heather offered sound advice and assisted me with compromise during mediation, keeping me focused on what truly mattered- my son. Her recommendations allowed me to resolve disagreements with my former spouse and avoid a trial in court later this year. Heather and her staff maintained constant communication with me, and I always felt comfortable asking questions or clarifications throughout the process. I highly recommend Heather to anyone looking for a fair, experienced family law attorney. She is well worth every penny!

Heather explained all my options in my custody case. If I didn’t understand she would explain it until I did. We worked together on making the final decisions, she had very good advice which in turn I was able to make good decisions. The communication was great. I would usually get an answer to an email within an hour. This was a difficult case during difficult times but I now have custody of my grandson thanks to Heather’s ability to know what to do and how to handle my case.

Yes, I said a breeze. We have used Heather not once but twice and both times, she was sensible and fair. Her extensive knowledge helped us navigate these tough issues with ease and end up with a result that was fair to both parties, all while staying out of court to help keep fees down. She's sympathetic and understanding and will go to bat for you. I would highly recommend her.

Heather Swann handled my extremely complex divorce and custody case with patience and dedication. As a father fighting for his child she helped me secure custody of my child and keep my child from harms way. She helped me stay calm through such a difficult case and was able to accomplish what was best for my child. She is extremely military friendly and understands the hardships associated with military life. Now as a veteran and father I will recommend Heather Swann to anyone to handle their family case as a honest, trustworthy, and hard working attorney.

My spouse would continue to throw scare tactics my way in an effort to stop divorce proceedings. Heather would quickly remind me to focus on the facts and not worry about all the extra stuff. My favorite quote from Heather was "I will tell you when you need to worry, and now is not the time." I used that phrase as my guiding principle the whole way through the process. Heather is factual, confident, to the point, responsive, and she knows her stuff. I always felt that Heather had my best interest in mind, and appreciated that she would focus on the best path forward while respecting my own personal desires. I highly recommend Heather for any family law issues you may need assistance with. She and her legal team are great! Thank you, Heather!

Heather is an amazing attorney. I'm military and my daughters mother is also which increases the difficulty of the case in my opinion. I was trying to keep my daughter in Washington where she attends school while my ex-wife was set on returning from overseas and moving out of state with her. The original divorce case was occurred out of state which further complicated things. Heather was able to get everything I was asking which ultimately benefited my daughter the most. I will always recommend Heather as an attorney to anyone I know dealing family law issues.

Heather is an amazing family law attorney. Her attention to detail, honest feedback, and genuine concern for her clients was critical to keeping me grounded throughout a very emotional and challenging time. As a military member separating from another military member, achieving balance for our family with minors was critical to maintaining stability. Heather offered sound advice and assisted me with compromise during mediation, keeping me focused on what truly mattered- my son. Her recommendations allowed me to resolve disagreements with my former spouse and avoid a trial in court later this year. Heather and her staff maintained constant communication with me, and I always felt comfortable asking questions or clarifications throughout the process. I highly recommend Heather to anyone looking for a fair, experienced family law attorney. She is well worth every penny!

Heather explained all my options in my custody case. If I didn’t understand she would explain it until I did. We worked together on making the final decisions, she had very good advice which in turn I was able to make good decisions. The communication was great. I would usually get an answer to an email within an hour. This was a difficult case during difficult times but I now have custody of my grandson thanks to Heather’s ability to know what to do and how to handle my case.

Yes, I said a breeze. We have used Heather not once but twice and both times, she was sensible and fair. Her extensive knowledge helped us navigate these tough issues with ease and end up with a result that was fair to both parties, all while staying out of court to help keep fees down. She's sympathetic and understanding and will go to bat for you. I would highly recommend her.

Heather Swann handled my extremely complex divorce and custody case with patience and dedication. As a father fighting for his child she helped me secure custody of my child and keep my child from harms way. She helped me stay calm through such a difficult case and was able to accomplish what was best for my child. She is extremely military friendly and understands the hardships associated with military life. Now as a veteran and father I will recommend Heather Swann to anyone to handle their family case as a honest, trustworthy, and hard working attorney.

Heather Swann provided me top notch service as my Family Lawyer and was worth every single penny spent!! Heather was able to navigate my complex relationship as a Civilian Law Enforcement Officer with the father of my children who is an Active Duty Service member. Insert two teenage kids, a new pregnancy, an AuPair for daycare, and communication while one party was deployed made the entire situation difficult. She didn’t waiver but was direct and up front; managing expectations and tactfully removing the band aid of emotions. With candor and calmness, she sifted through multiple unreasonable, emotionally-based demands made by both parties. She clearly lit the path of the way ahead, ensuring that our resolution put the children’s needs first. Something which can get lost in the emotions of a conflict. I was involved and informed of every decision made, and watched as she went toe to toe with every roadblock and person that stood in the way of our end goal. She is one of the very most competently aggressive lawyers I have the pleasure of working with; that list includes both prosecutors and defense attorneys. There is no other family lawyer I’d use or recommend. I was already divorced so Heather assisted me with Petitions for Modifications, Emergency Restraining Orders, Parenting Plan Revision, Child Support Modifications/Calculations (one worksheet for a deployed status and one for non-deployed as the finances and child custody changes drastically), a very long Mediation, Declarations, Supplemental Declarations, ExParte, and addressing Orders for Hearings.

Heather is personable, straightforward, and consistent in her communication, efforts, and results, to provide me with excellent representation in a "gray divorce". Her wise counsel and saavy negotiating skills allowed me to receive a fair and equitable resolution of assets in mediation, without having to go to trial. She was prudent to keep charges at bay. I am extremely grateful for her work on my case, and the support provided by her firm and staff, in all their interactions with me. I highly recommend Heather as a smart choice for representation.

Heather Swann handled my extremely complex divorce and custody case with patience and dedication. As a father fighting for his child she helped me secure custody of my child and keep my child from harms way. She helped me stay calm through such a difficult case and was able to accomplish what was best for my child. She is extremely military friendly and understands the hardships associated with military life. Now as a veteran and father I will recommend Heather Swann to anyone to handle their family case as a honest, trustworthy, and hard working attorney.

Heather Swann provided me top notch service as my Family Lawyer and was worth every single penny spent!! Heather was able to navigate my complex relationship as a Civilian Law Enforcement Officer with the father of my children who is an Active Duty Service member. Insert two teenage kids, a new pregnancy, an AuPair for daycare, and communication while one party was deployed made the entire situation difficult. She didn’t waiver but was direct and up front; managing expectations and tactfully removing the band aid of emotions. With candor and calmness, she sifted through multiple unreasonable, emotionally-based demands made by both parties. She clearly lit the path of the way ahead, ensuring that our resolution put the children’s needs first. Something which can get lost in the emotions of a conflict. I was involved and informed of every decision made, and watched as she went toe to toe with every roadblock and person that stood in the way of our end goal. She is one of the very most competently aggressive lawyers I have the pleasure of working with; that list includes both prosecutors and defense attorneys. There is no other family lawyer I’d use or recommend. I was already divorced so Heather assisted me with Petitions for Modifications, Emergency Restraining Orders, Parenting Plan Revision, Child Support Modifications/Calculations (one worksheet for a deployed status and one for non-deployed as the finances and child custody changes drastically), a very long Mediation, Declarations, Supplemental Declarations, ExParte, and addressing Orders for Hearings.

Heather is personable, straightforward, and consistent in her communication, efforts, and results, to provide me with excellent representation in a "gray divorce". Her wise counsel and saavy negotiating skills allowed me to receive a fair and equitable resolution of assets in mediation, without having to go to trial. She was prudent to keep charges at bay. I am extremely grateful for her work on my case, and the support provided by her firm and staff, in all their interactions with me. I highly recommend Heather as a smart choice for representation.

I hired Heather to represent me when I was in the middle of an emotional and contested separation. My case involved many moving parts, including a spouse in the military, a military deployment and subsequent relocation, a long distance child custody agreement, and my own personal out of state relocation - all happening mid-divorce. My spouse would continue to throw scare tactics my way in an effort to stop divorce proceedings. Heather would quickly remind me to focus on the facts and not worry about all the extra stuff. My favorite quote from Heather was "I will tell you when you need to worry, and now is not the time." I used that phrase as my guiding principle the whole way through the process. Heather is factual, confident, to the point, responsive, and she knows her stuff. I always felt that Heather had my best interest in mind, and appreciated that she would focus on the best path forward while respecting my own personal desires. I highly recommend Heather for any family law issues you may need assistance with. She and her legal team are great! Thank you, Heather!

Heather is an amazing attorney. I'm military and my daughters mother is also which increases the difficulty of the case in my opinion. I was trying to keep my daughter in Washington where she attends school while my ex-wife was set on returning from overseas and moving out of state with her. The original divorce case was occurred out of state which further complicated things. Heather was able to get everything I was asking which ultimately benefited my daughter the most. I will always recommend Heather as an attorney to anyone I know dealing family law issues.

Heather is an amazing family law attorney. Her attention to detail, honest feedback, and genuine concern for her clients was critical to keeping me grounded throughout a very emotional and challenging time. As a military member separating from another military member, achieving balance for our family with minors was critical to maintaining stability. Heather offered sound advice and assisted me with compromise during mediation, keeping me focused on what truly mattered- my son. Her recommendations allowed me to resolve disagreements with my former spouse and avoid a trial in court later this year. Heather and her staff maintained constant communication with me, and I always felt comfortable asking questions or clarifications throughout the process. I highly recommend Heather to anyone looking for a fair, experienced family law attorney. She is well worth every penny!

Heather explained all my options in my custody case. If I didn’t understand she would explain it until I did. We worked together on making the final decisions, she had very good advice which in turn I was able to make good decisions. The communication was great. I would usually get an answer to an email within an hour. This was a difficult case during difficult times but I now have custody of my grandson thanks to Heather’s ability to know what to do and how to handle my case.

Her extensive knowledge helped us navigate these tough issues with ease and end up with a result that was fair to both parties, all while staying out of court to help keep fees down. She's sympathetic and understanding and will go to bat for you. I would highly recommend her.
