Went through a long grueling situation and Heather took my case and not only did she win my civil case but also when the Brigade commander decided to try and fry me we took it to a board of separation and slam dunked it. Heather exceeded my expectations and saved my life. She is the best lawyer around I highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much Heather you are the best.

Heather was there for me day 1 since I made the call reaching out for legal help. Federal Court was a scary thought, but Heather made sure to rest my mind by working with me in all aspects of the case. Took less than a 7 months to get everything squared away. Shes an amazing Lawyer, very knowledgeable, and understanding to your situation. It was a blessing to have found her. If the future sees me in another situation. Ill be contacting her first thing.

Heather was very professional, and made my first court case a very easy process. She gathered pertinent information for the arraignment, kept me updated on the constantly changing court schedule, and represented me well. I would recommend her to all my contacts. Heather is one of the best people I've had the pleasure of working with.

Heather was nothing less than stellar. She was very professional and handled this important matter fast and effectively. I would highly recommend her for any employment suitability matters. Thank you for all of your help and support through this very difficult time.

I came to Ms. Straub with a unique issue, seeing as I could only find lawyers outside of Washington that dealt with Security Clearance adjudications. I sought consultation with Ms. Straub since she dealt with DOD, DUI and civilian investigations, three things that applied to my case. After talking to Ms. Straub in regards to a Letter of Intent that I received, she agreed to a consultation. Coming prepared to move forward if she was as well after the consultation, I had brought Ms. Straub everything that I could in regards to my case, including character references and even a response I had begun to write to the Letter of Intent at hand on my own before seeking legal help. Once hiring Ms. Straub, we were working within a short time frame, a few weeks, while waiting on a records request at the same time. Even though the records request did not arrive in time for review prior to the Refute submittal date. Ms. Straub’s knowledge in her field provided me with a response to submit that left me speechless and formatted in such a way that I never could have accomplished on my own in a timely and concise manner.

Heather was amazing from start to finish! She stood up for what was right when lies were flying from every angle. She calmed my 13 now 14 year old down the whole way and kept him informed. She was a cheerleader for me even when i lost myself a few times. She is fully aware of the stress it puts on family and she helps as best as she can. She will get the right people to work on your case! If you or a loved one is ever falsely accused of a crime she is the attorney for you. It is a process and a long one at that but she did what she needed to and my son is now able to adjust to his new normal since this started in dec of 2018 Best Christmas present ever was hearing CASE DISMISSED!

Heather and her team are fully committed to you and your family. She is knowledgeable on military UCMJ and will put all her energy into your case. Heather was very professional, determined, and fought to get the outcome that we wanted on my case. If you are facing a hard fight on your case, then Heather Straub is who you want to hire!

I hired Heather 18 months ago for assistance with military charges that ultimately resulted in me spending 12 months in prison - I was just recently released. While a conviction and 12 months may sound bad, I expected a 4 to 5 year sentence. I was panicked when I found myself initially served with charges. Heather was recommended to me, I contacted her, and found her to be remarkable. She was responsive to my questions and concerns, honest and forthright, and walked me thru the entire process. She made me feel like part of the team, kept me informed, and fought hard to minimize my sentence, by ensuring both the hearing officer at the Article 32 hearing and the military judge at the Court Martial heard my concerns and mitigating circumstances, acknowledged them, and took them in to account with my final sentencing. I cannot imagine having had anyone else defend me, and am eternally grateful to her for her hard work fighting for me. Not only does she clearly know civilian law (we had to address a couple side issues in civilian court which were concluded in my favor), she also is very competent in a military court room. I would very strongly recommend her to anyone requiring a criminal defense attorney, especially if it involves the military!

Heather is a force to be reckoned with but also extraordinarily thoughtful and considerate. She knew I was going through a very difficult time and stressed the importance of self care. She checked on me numerous times. She fought the battle Until it was won, the whole time Working efficiently and writing and responding with eloquent, educated responses and seeking truth. She’s passionate, has excellent work ethic and has a well informed background in military law. She’s quick to reach out for assistance with expertise outside her scope and approaches everything with 100% of herself. She is quick to respond, quick to provide relevant and experienced advice.

I would recommend Heather to anyone that needs someone who is determined and gritty. She really talks to the person you are and not just the paid client like some see. She listens and goes to work for not only you but your family that stands behind you. If it weren't for her and my military attorney I would not be able to see my girls grow up. I was facing some very serious false accusations and as i previously stated Heather listened to my wife and I and did her research to defend an innocent man. After all was said and done we got a Not Guilty on all charges and I will forever be grateful for her expertise and commitment. Signed, A very grateful husband and father

I had an issue with the reserves, and hired Ms. Straub to get some information that I was not able to find doing my own research. She was very quick to respond to me, and provided me the information I requested within only a couple days. I had anticipated this taking far longer. She is very aggressive and energetic when helping her clients.

Thank you for all of your hard work, dedication and professionalism while working on my case. This was by far one of the most difficult times of my life. You guided me through this difficult time with confidence, which resulted in a not guilty verdict on all accounts of Article 120. Thank you!
