Heidi Whitaker has been a nightmare to work with. She kept stalling the case by submitting incorrect paperwork multiple times, charged me for her mistakes and overcharged for everything. It was hard to get a hold of her, yet I kept being billed, it was very stressful. I wish I had done better research, as there are similar complaints about her on her Colorado profiles. I filed a complaint against her with the Wyoming board and was rewarded a partial refund, but I still wasted over ten thousand dollars, in addition to the stress and delay of the whole case. Went to a different attorney who was very knowledgeable and absolutely amazing and wonderful to work with. Hopefully my review will guide you to a better attorney so you don't have to go through the stress I went through

We contacted Burnham Law 4 days before our hearing. They assigned Heidi S. Whitaker for our case. She won the case and my child was returned to me right away. She is brilliant, smart and good, professionally and humanly. I recommend Burnham Law to all who need help for family legal issues in Colorado! M.E.

During a treacherous high conflict custody battle, Heidi was an aggressive litigator with an eagle-eyed approach to dealing with an antagonistic opposing counsel. She was highly strategic and proficient in every aspect of the services she provided. My wife along with her counsel with the intent to gain leverage to remove my rights as an active father in my child's life filed for a Protective Order with the court with false claims against my character. As a result of Heidi's aggressive approach to litigation her expertise and services is what lead to my false allegations being dismissed. Heidi conducted herself at the highest level of transparency, professionalism and integrity from start to finish. I highly recommend Heidi for any client faced with false allegations or struggling with a high-conflict custody issue. As a result, I know that I will be able to experience a healthy relationship with my son. Being a father is the highest priority in my life.

I can't say enough about how impressed I was/am with Heidi. I was in a higher conflict child custody case, had been through two PRE's, and was using a different attorney. I was getting nowhere, and being treated horribly by my attorney in the process. I decided I needed new counsel. I called a lot of offices, wanting to get the absolute best fit for me to get this resolved. When I spoke to Todd at Burnham Law, he immediately know who he wanted me to work with. From the beginning, Heidi was exactly what I needed. She was real. She was smart, and personable. And she was honest. And she was compassionate. She made me see things how I needed to, without making me feel bad for being upset or emotional. She also reassured me that the decisions were mine, and if my case went to court, she would fight as hard as she needed to. My only regret was that I hadn't been working with Heidi from the beginning. I would recommend her to anyone dealing with a custody case, no matter how small or big the conflict. She will make it productive and worth it!

Completely help me in moving my divorce decree from Illinois to Colorado and setting forth a new parenting plan in Colorado. Could not have received better help. Heidi met and exceeded all expectations. Highly recommend!!

Heidi skillfully guided us through the legal battles to obtain grandparent visitations. Her advice was spot on, and her ability to work with opposing counsel and judges was key in us getting visitation rights. Her knowledge and experience was a tremendous asset in our case. We especially appreciate the time she took to explain the legalese and our options throughout the entire process.

I hired Heidi to help with a legal family matter. She was straight forward and honest about what I could and could not expect from my case. She did an excellent job and I would recommend her, and if need be I would use her again.

She did my divorce for me. She was very good, thorough, did exactly what she said she was going to do. It all was done very quickly. If I ever needed an attorney again I would use her again.

Upon my initial consultation, I was told many things by Ms. Whitaker, but all of it came up empty and she never listened to me. She felt she always had the answers, but when questioned, she would get defensive and could not justify herself. She seems to be more fit for litigation then negotiation. Would not recommend to anyone. But if you do hire her be careful about the billing, she will bill for just saying hello and she does most of the talking.
