About

A lawyer who understands the concerns you have and the situations you are going through may be hard to find. As someone who has been through a divorce and heavily involved in the criminal justice system, attorney Heath L. Baker may understand your concerns regarding your family law, criminal law, and personal injury cases, more than you would expect. Mr. Baker understands what it is like to face emotionally difficult situations, which go beyond "winning" a case. Mr. Baker retired from the Riverside Police Department after obtaining years of experience with the courts, investigations, and the judicial process, seeing both sides of the criminal prosecution system. After retiring from the police department, Heath worked as a licensed private investigator working in both the criminal and civil arena; focusing on family law and child custody cases for more than six years. During that time, he mastered the skill of supporting legal cases for other attorneys using investigations, which he now uses exclusively for his own clients. Mr. Baker is local to the Riverside area and offers you that "home team" advantage; raised in Riverside, he attended California Baptist University and California Southern Law School. He is devoted to remain in his community where he has lived his entire life, and enjoys spending his off time with his wife and their combined six children.

Absolutely INCREDIBLE!! Mr Baker and Christine jumped and had my judgement completed in a week! I was pressed for time and they were exceptional. I was with another attorney 4 months with 2 rejected judgements due to clerical errors and Mr Baker completed it the first time no issues! Don’t go anywhere else!

Mr. Baker and his team assisted me with a restraining order and I could not recommend them enough. I went to a different office at first and was given the run around after paying for their service during a very stressful and scary time. When I called Mr. Baker's office, they immediately squeezed me in for a consultation. From then on, I knew I was in good hands. His paralegal Christine is excellent with the paperwork and is on top of everything. At the hearing, Mr. Baker ran laps around the other lawyer. He was calm, confident, well prepared, and very thorough. I appreciate the support and professionalism given by his office- they are also doing my divorce case and again, I highly recommend them.

Heath Baker has been wonderful in representing me through my custody case. These situations are never easy and Heath and his staff have made me feel very comfortable and confident during the entire situation. They explain everything so that I can make the most informed decisions for my family. I would recommend Heath Baker and his firm to represent everyone who is dealing with family law issues.

I don't know where to start with how pleased I am with the representation Mr Baker and his staff have provided me in this process, their professionalism and communication with me has been most appreciated, I had no idea how complicated this issue was going to be but between Mr Baker and his staff they have simplified it to where it all makes sense and I am optimistic of the outcome, special thanks to Christine Olvera she has been just fantastic...

Heath Baker and the entire staff are absolutely amazing! I cannot say enough wonderful things about everyone that works in the office, from the moment we walked in the door, we knew everything was finally going to be okay. Colleen is absolutely wonderful, she and Mr Baker handle your case with care, and understand just how important your children really are to you. Most off all they understand how important it is to do what's best for you children. They don't just tell you what you want to hear either. 100% honesty is what you will get weather you like it or not. ;) They also take time to fully understand the each situation and how different they are. Colleen responds promptly to emails addressing any concerns, even if it is later at night or on the weekend!! They definitely don't just make you feel like they are in it for the $. Pam in the front office is always so kind and helpful everytime you call. She always sounds so pleasant and caring when you speak to her. Laura the office manager is great! She is super helpful and does her best to accommodate your needs and situation. I can go on and on about Mr Baker and his AMAZING staff. If you are going through a rough custody battle and want great representation, like me this is definitely the right place for you.

I had 2 cases with Heath and his team, one for child custody and one for divorce. Heath was incredibly compassionate and trustworthy which made my terrible situation, bearable. He was open and clear about pricing and I never felt I was being overbilled. He set reasonable expectations for both cases and always explained what he needed from me in a compassionate way. After court, he spent time clarifying what had happened and suggested how we move forward. This was an extremely difficult time for me and being able to call his office with questions and deal with his friendly staff was refreshing. He was also TOUGH! He knows the law well and I always felt like he had the better argument tactics and was most respected by the judge. He's truly fighting for what is right and best for kids! I will use Heath again if I ever need to in the future and will recommend to family and friends who need a knowledgeable, compassionate person to fight for them!

In less than a year of being Mr Bakers client he has proven time and time again that his word is his bond. He has changed my family's life tremendously since working with him. Mr Baker and his office team are the epitome of professionalism and support for anyone in need of guidance and legal assistance. Mr Baker is not only a lawyer but he is also the crutch to walk on when one alone can not. I owe my family's stability and happiness to Mr Baker and his team.

Mr. Baker and his staff are amazing. They put me as ease when it came to my family law case. I felt very comfortable on the day of court. Mr. Baker and his staff are very knowledgeable when it comes to the court systems. They have proven themselves to be better than any other attorney I have been to. I am very happy with the results from this office and the accuracy to handle my very delicate case. I look forward to continuing to work with Mr. Baker and his staff. I would recommend Mr. Baker to anyone and I will continue to send more clients their way.

Mr Baker and his office has represented me during a most devastating time in my life. They supported me to guide me through a time I could not always make wise life decisions such as what was truly fair. Mr Baker fought for me in the separation of a life long business, home, vehicles. He and his office where there for me when I had questions and kept me informed. When it came to a hard decision I had to make to settle they both meet with me and honored my choice. I recommend Mr Baker and his staff during your divorce proceedings. You do need to keep in mind that during any time a attorney is needed to keep track of your cost. I told them during our meetings I could only afford a certain amount and they kept our talks to a certain time frame. I felt confident in my proceedings with Mr Baker and Laura his Paralegal.
