— Sims

— James

“Stacy Heard came highly recommended by the law firm in Seattle in which she worked as a paralegal while in law school. Ms. Heard provided exceptional legal advice during a most painful and bitter divorce. I appreciated her skills in negotiations as well as her ability to ‘hold the line’ when advocating for her client. During the most painful and intense period of my life, I also appreciated Ms. Heard’s sense of humor which counteracted the more challenging aspects of this situation.
Ms. Heard is a caring and compassionate attorney who practices law with excellence. I highly recommend her to future clients.”

“I would definitely recommend this lawyer. She kept me informed throughout my case and provided excellent representation.”

“Stacy has done an outstanding job. She is candid, blunt, and honest regarding how the system works yet is caring and understanding that emotions are playing a role in any divorce proceedings.”

“Stacy Heard has been a great help to me during a lengthy and mentally-straining process. She explains the whys, the hows, and whens very well and can anticipate opposing counsel’s next move. I am glad to have her as an asset and would recommend her to anyone going through a divorce or related family law issues.”

“Stacy was referred by another attorney friend. Now that my case is over, I cannot recommend her enough to anyone doing their homework on seeking a family law attorney. The bottom line is that nobody wants to be involved in family court, but the facts are that sometimes you just have to be. When that happens you want someone that knows exactly what they are doing. You want someone that is organized and will be honest with you even if it is not what you want to hear. You also want someone that knows family law forwards and backwards. She is all of this. Sometimes my situation was so messy that I didn’t even know what to do or how to get through the day without feeling like it was never going to end. She was very reassuring. She had a plan and was very open about how we would solve the issues we were facing. She was also very honest about everything that could happen. I appreciated this because it helped me prepare for whatever could happen. From the moment I met Stacey I was impressed by her knowledge of the law and her confidence in being able to take over a case that was so incredibly messy. My case and the other party were very complicated. My ex was off the rails through the entire process and my previous attorney had sat on his hands for over a year. Within one month of Stacey taking on the case she did more for me in 30 days than the previous attorney did in one year! Any questions I ever had were answered quickly via email. She would also explain things thoroughly. Her assistant was amazing through our entire process, too. Extremely organized and on top of everything. Emails were responded to efficiently and timely. Not one time did I feel like I was hanging on by a thread waiting to hear back from them. In the end – our case is finally over. My kids are doing exceptionally well after being in a bad situation. I will always have a special place in my heart for what Stacey was able to accomplish in my case. She was ethical and honest with me the entire time.”

“It’s my pleasure to offer my unreserved recommendation to Stacy Heard.

Since I’ve started working with Stacy, not only have I had the chance to work with one of the most accomplished and hard-working attorneys in the state of Washington, but I also gained a mentor, and most especially a friend. From the day I started working alongside her a few years ago, she has always demonstrated responsibility and a strong entrepreneurial spirit, and working with her each day was always a highlight of mine.

Of course, you know from her track record and from the stories of other clients that she’s very successful within the legal world, but what you may not know is the joy and enthusiasm she gets from solving problems and helping others. It’s truly amazing to see her look at a difficult problem or issue and make it a success.

It is truly a pleasure and an amazing experience working for Stacy Heard every day!”

“Stacy is very professional and detail orientated. She fights for what is fair and is always looking out for the best interest of her client. I would highly recommend her services, and I know that I will be using her in the future for all my legal needs.”

“Stacy is the best lawyer in Seattle.”

“I was referred to Stacy from another well reputable attorney in Seattle. From the first meeting we had, Stacy understood my divorce case and set the proper expectations of what I could expect. It was a difficult divorce with multiple evaluations for child custody. The case ended up in mediation and was resolved there. I was very satisfied with the outcome of the divorce and know I would have not been able to do it without her. Stacy is not only passionate about the law, but knew how to communicate the law so I could understand it. She never left me in the dark, would consistently get back to me on the same day I sent an email or called, and always felt she was giving me the truth. There were a couple of times that I was feeling drained and wanted to give up – Stacy would refocus me on my goals and always kept an eye on the end. I found it very helpful that she is so well networked in the community. She made great suggestions for evaluators and a mediators! Stacy knows when to listen, knows when to advise, and knows when to be tough. I would highly recommend Stacy’s representation in a divorce case.”

— Chris

“I hired Stacy to represent me in a child custody/guardianship case. She is very knowledgeable about family law matters and provided me with information about the court process. Stacy told me she could help me if I helped her by providing her with the information needed to build my case. I found her experience and caring attitude very beneficial to me.”

— Susan

“Stacy is a great family law attorney handling difficult cases in a collaborative, thoughtful manner. I recommend Stacy as a strong advocate when handling family law matters, as she is capable of pressing strong positions while keeping in mind practical solutions to difficult problems. I have had Stacy as opposing counsel and enjoy working with her and would refer clients to her without pause.”

— Julie

“Stacy really saved me when I needed it most. She has a great understanding of family law and the emotional side that goes with it. Unlike a lot of attorneys, she was incredibly responsive and always made sure I understood what was happening and coming up next. She’s a straight-shooter and will always guide you in the right way. I never felt dumb and always empowered. Not only would I recommend her, I would hire her again in a second. She made a terrible situation much more bearable.”

— Craig

“Stacy has done an outstanding job. She is candid, blunt and honest regarding how the system works yet is caring and understanding that emotions are playing a role in any divorce proceedings. Despite the unfortunate situation, I found her enjoyable to work with. I worked with her more than a year from start to finish. I had shopped around and met with several attorneys before I decided that Stacy was the one I knew who I would work best with. I knew she could get in there and be tough when she needed to be, which I appreciated. I truly felt that my best interests were always being looked after, instead of her bottom line – as I have seen other attorneys do. And I felt that she prepared me to what I should honestly expect in the end results. She is knowledgeable, seems to have great recognition in the legal community among her peers and possesses excellent communication skills.”

— Sonia

“Stacy was great. I was referred to Stacy from a family attorney. She is very expensive so I consulted with another attorney that Stacy Recommended closer to my home. I didn’t feel the connection there with that attorney so then I went back to Stacy for another Consult. Stacy is very knowledgeable in her role. She is expensive but well worth it because she knows the law. It was all a bit confusing to me but she educates you so that you can make the best decision for your family. Positive energy. Great hair and great smile doesn’t hurt anyone either in a stressful time. She is a fire cracker but I feel that it is absolutely needed when your in this position. Thanks for everything you did Stacy. I do wish i would have initially hired Stacy from the Very beginning.”
