My family, especially my daughter (Jenna) and granddaughters, endured unimaginable hardship at the hands of the opposing side. Watching my daughter be mistreated and abused was deeply painful. I felt powerless to help, and it was heart-wrenching to witness. The opposing party used their wealth, connections, and influence to accuse my daughter of failing to protect her children from their father—their own son. It felt as though they had bought a predetermined outcome, manipulating the legal system to their advantage. The emotional toll on my daughter was devastating, and ultimately, they succeeded in gaining sole custody of my granddaughters.
The actions of the opposing side had the potential to permanently alter my grandchildren’s lives, and it should never have been allowed to happen.
Then Heidi Collier and her incredible team stepped in. From the moment they took on our case, Heidi understood the glaring abuse of power and saw the deep imbalance at play. In just a few months, she was able to right many of these wrongs and secure 50/50 custody for my daughter.
My family will be forever grateful to Heidi and her team for their courage in taking us on as clients. They worked tirelessly, achieving remarkable results for us. Heidi was always honest, transparent, and had a calming presence—especially during the most stressful moments. Her unwavering support was invaluable throughout this entire journey, and we can’t thank her enough.
In court, Heidi was a fierce advocate for us. She handled every argument with a blend of skill, professionalism, and confidence, earning the respect of both the judge and opposing counsel. Her calm demeanor and strategic approach reassured me, easing my nerves and reinforcing that we were in the best hands possible.
Heidi’s extensive knowledge of family law was clear at every stage. She took the time to explain each step of the process in detail, making sure I understood everything. She was always available to answer my questions and address any concerns, ensuring that I felt well-informed and supported throughout. Her attention to detail in preparing our case was impressive, and it was clear that nothing was overlooked.

I cannot say enough about Heidi Collier and her team. Heidi is kind and knowledgeable. With the uncertain pandemic Covid19 I can count on Heidi and her office to keep me updated with everything going on with the courts at this time. Divorce is a difficult thing to have to go through. Heidi makes you feel taken care of. She is firm when needs to be and knows her stuff. I feel my children and myself are in the best hands with Heidi. The office is clean and bright. Dalinah is a joy to see when you first walk in. This office is the best in town. I will forever recommend Heidi Collier to family and friends.

Heidi Collier, Esq., was referred by a friend and I'm grateful. Heidi explained her fees up front, how she worked, kept me on task and quietly and competently conducted my divorce. The only time my ex-spouse and I were in the same room with her, she treated everyone with respect and compassion preventing any escalation.

I was referred to Heidi in the midst of mediation for my divorce with a mediation attorney, which was not going well. Heidi was always professional, listened to my concerns and priorities, and enabled me to feel more knowledgeable and confident that I was doing what was legally best for me. By hiring Heidi to consult and guide me, I was able to reach an agreement with my ex in mediation. As a result, we avoided costly litigation and an extended emotional battle in court. Not only is Heidi a competent and professional attorney, she's also a kind and caring person.

I hired Heidi for my divorce/child custody case and hired her again 5 years later to help me seek changes to the custody agreement. She is wonderful! My ex has a personality disorder snd is narcissistic-he is extremely difficult to work with. Heidi understood this and indulged him just enough but didn't get sucked into his delay tactics, lengthy emails, etc. She valued my money and her time. Heidi gave me advice, the "reality " version and helped me make decisions that were in the best interest of my kids and myself. She was always ready for court and prepared me for mediation. She was responsive and supportive. I highly recommend her especially if you have a mentally ill (soon to be) ex. Don't waste your money on someone who doesn't get these issues.

I am so thankful to have been referred to Ms. Collier 6 years ago for my family law case. She was able to listen to me, what I would like in my outcome and how to best approach the case. She listens and takes each case very careful as if it was her own. Going through a divorce and fighting for custody can be one of the most saddest and scariest things anyone can go through. But having Ms. Collier next to you in explaining the process, the steps needed to take, and plans in how to join together amicable especially dealing with a high conflict non-custodial parent- makes the process much easier. I could not ask for a better attorney who knows my case and has an amazing recollecting of facts and what strategies to put on the table. I have referred her to many who are looking for that right attorney who will take your case carefully and you feel protected. She is the one who you want to be standing next to in the court room fighting for your child or family. She is professional and so eloquently spoken when communicating with the judge, and other attorneys. She also is so familiar with counseling, mediators, and therapist who can support cases, as well as neutral third party organizations/ programs that can help support a family when dealing with custody. Ms. Collier amazes me every time we are before the judge, because she has all her notes and cases organized hitting all the right key points and most of all a strong closing argument that leaves anyone satisfied! I am thankful to have her represent me and I continue to refer her to others seeing she has a caring heart who loves what she does for a living.

I am happy to call Heidi and Karen my friend's. If you are in need of help this IS who you call.

Having to go through a divorce is a terrible situation for anyone to be in, but if you need to follow this path, then Heidi can do a great job for you. She has helped me on various marital separation and divorce related topics for a decade. Her advice is clear, accurate and she does a great job of connecting with you personally.
She helped me with a very difficult divorce when there were complicated money issues involved. She gave me the options, recommended a path and then let me make the decision.
I strongly recommend Heidi Collier if you need a divorce attorney.

I am so thankful, and happy to have Heidi as my attorney. She is always on top of what has been needed during my divorce. She has laid out a perfect game plan, that includes action notes to me to keep me focused on what I need to do. She also has been a great counselor with the emotional process of going through a divorce. Do not let her kindness be mistaken for weakness.....She is one tough cookie. She gets things done. I would highly recommend Heidi to anyone who is looking for an attorney who is highly qualified, and an effective attorney both in and outside of the courtroom with. A+

Heidi is the best, she was very caring which I did not expect from an attorney. She always had my daughters best interest, I recieved more than 50% custody which is rare for a man. Heidi was very professional and communicated with me even when she was on vacation to help threw difficult times. I would highly recommend her as her knowlegde, honesty, and caring personality, plus an aggressive side when needed made this the outcome I hoped for.
