“I came to Heather with an incredibly difficult family law case that seemed destined for litigation. Heather, Samantha and the entire Russell McCabe team worked tirelessly for my family to achieve the outcome that we deserved. Heather was always available whether it was late-night or weekends. My case was wrought with alienation and heartbreaking accusations against myself and my family. It was, without a doubt, the hardest thing I have ever been through and Heather was always right there to ease my doubt and help me see the big picture. She settled my case, a case that even a retired judge didn't think could settle, and she did so in my favor. I will be forever grateful and in awe of Heather and her team. Best. Decision. Ever.”
