Why Same-Sex Couples Need a Will: Protecting Your Assets and Your Partner
Despite the Supreme Court’s landmark 2015 ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges, making same-sex marriage the law of the land, many states still have outdated laws
Heidi is the best !! After the birth of my daughter, all my priorities changed, of course, and she helped me through all the new "adulting" I needed to do! She made it super easy to talk about some difficult subjects and I never once felt uncomfortable. We actually shared a few laughs and I'm appreciative of that. We went through everything from advanced directives, trust planning, and wishes I had for my family in any event that I would be unable to care for them. Like I said, it's some tough stuff to face for some of us, but I am so appreciative for her services . The peace of mind I have now is priceless ! Thank you Heidi !!

Friendly, thorough, highly knowledgeable, accommodating, prompt and most importantly a patient listener. I couldn't recommend her more highly.
