"I don't just litigate construction disputes; I know how they're built."


More About Heather

When construction projects encounter obstacles, clients need more than legal answers. They need counsel who understands what's at stake for the project and the business behind it. Heather works with owners, contractors, and developers to manage risk, address disputes, and keep projects moving forward.

Heather provides strategic counsel on some of the construction industry's most significant challenges, including delay and impact claims, design-related disputes, contractor licensing issues, payment disputes, and breach of contract matters. She has represented clients in complex public works and private projects involving multimillion-dollar disputes and brings results-oriented leadership to every stage of conflict resolution.

Having spent more than a decade in construction law, Heather combines private practice experience with valuable in-house experience supporting a heavy civil contractor on various types of public works projects. Her firsthand understanding of how construction projects are built, managed, and completed allows her to quickly identify risks, anticipate challenges, and develop practical strategies tailored to each client's business objectives. Drawing on her experience resolving disputes both during active projects and through complex post-completion claims, she delivers solutions that align legal considerations with real-world project demands.

Heather understands that most clients would rather be building projects than dealing with disputes. That's why she focuses on delivering clear answers, practical strategies, and solutions that resolve problems without losing sight of the bigger picture. She helps clients navigate legal challenges confidently so they can keep their projects and business relationships on track.
