Paul is an AMAZING attorney! He has been absolutely incredible to work with, and would highly recommend him to anyone. He is extremely professional, super responsive, and truly cares. It's so refreshing to work with someone that goes over and beyond, and provides such excellent customer service. Paul and his team are top notch!

Had an incredibly positive experience with Mr. Heatherman and his staff!

We had to change some trusts, wills, and advanced directives with our aging Mother, who has some memory issues. Mr. Heatherman handled the one on one with our aging loved one with incredible skill to make the appointment go smooth and easy and understandable for our loved one.
Couldn't ask for better service. Thanks

I used Paul for my Living Trust and found him to be knowledgeable, easy to work with and very reasonably priced. He was also quite helpful in helping me find a 3rd party executor to work with. I highly recommend him.

My wife and I were looking for an attorney to set up an estate trust recently. It was our good fortune to find Paul Heatherman, who guided us expertly and professionally through the process. Paul did an excellent job explaining the trust basics and provided numerous anecdotal examples of pitfalls to be avoided. We had the sense that he wanted the best possible outcome for us; he offered solid advice on the many decisions involved in creating a trust. Paul's a down to earth gentleman, very approachable and easy to connect with, and a skilled attorney. We felt completely at ease throughout the process and highly recommend Paul for your legal needs.

I was involved in a very lengthy house deal that ended poorly. Paul Heatherman and his team have been great I could not have found or hoped for a better lawyer to represent me. He and his team have provided excellent customer service always returning phone calls and emails promptly, and answering any of the multiple questions I had for him. The cost of his services was also far beyond fair he quoted me a price and even though his time spent exceeded that he stuck to his quote. He was always on top of everything and well informed about my case. At trial he argued very well and aggressively which was needed as the opposing lawyer was very combative and generally very difficult throughout the case. If you find yourself in need of a lawyer this is who I would call and he will remain my lawyer in the future for whatever I will need one for.

don't waste anymore time looking..You found him!! Paul Heatherman is the best attorney you could hope for!!! I had a very emotionally painful eviction process that involved family, and was very hard. Paul told me from day one the key points I needed to make. He then put up with numerous emails and loads of unnecessary documentation as I prepared for this extremely painful process, just to find out at trial, that it was not necessary as the points he originally made were the only ones needed. He handled the case with super professional wording and style. We won our case, and he and his staff have made sure I have all the documentation and knowledge I need to go forward with my business successfully. They answered every call and made sure I never worried about what to do next. I will always use Paul for all my attorney needs.

We found Paul to be very straightforward and approachable, and in one visit was able to answer our questions and make suggestions regarding a tenant issue. We found it refreshing that he didn't need to make a big production out of our problem, but instead cut right to the chase; we left feeling like we had the answers we needed to be able to resolve our issue ourselves.
One caveat: I didn't see in his office acres of shelving filled with expensive law books. If a million-dollar office environment is important to you, you might want to look elsewhere. But if you want straightforward, no-nonsense answers to your legal issues, Paul is your man. Thumbs up!

In the past 6 years, we have used Paul's services for all of our property needs from sales to neighbor issues to dealing with a pushy company wanting us to sign a release for a sewer repair they had contracted out after their employees had severed it. Paul took care of the issue without a signed release.
Thanks, Paul

We have worked with Paul Heatherman for many years and have also benefitted from his wise counsel on legal matters. We have referred several friends to Paul's practice, and all have commented on how well their cases were handled and how approachable and personable Paul Heatherman is as a person and a professional. People facing legal issues and wanting the peace of mind of making the right choice would be well-advised to have a conference with Paul. If his office is not the right one for your matter, he will be the first person to tell you that.

I don't believe I have ever met Paul in person. This is a testament to how easy and convenient he has made my life as a landlord. I have a place in Bend, but I live elsewhere. He responds to emails and inquiries in a very timely manner and handles things efficiently. I also appreciate that he takes time to explains things without charging me for every 30 seconds of a phone call. Highly recommend.

When finding oneself in dire need, there are a few qualities which are indispensable in those to whom you turn for help. These might include the ability to listen carefully and value everything you say, or knowing the difference between honesty and cynicism, or understanding that being realistic doesn't always mean downplaying important issues due to their difficulty. Or, just the ability to treat you like a human being. I am happy to say that Paul Heatherman exemplifies all of these qualities. In addition to his expertise in law, Paul has the knowledge of the legal trade and bureaucracy-- and the contacts-- to get things done. Finding an attorney who knows the law is one thing, but finding one who can go beyond theories and book knowledge and get things done in the real world is something else entirely. I can't thank him enough for the help he's given me, it has been the key which has unlocked the doors barring me from success. I'd recommend him to anyone.

They have also shared with me that they are happy with the financial settlements Paul has help them get so they have the resources to get access to further treatment for years to come. Paul is personable, professional and competent.

Five years ago I went to Paul Heatherman to help us save our home from foreclosure. We accumulated too much debt and our mortgage was adjustable. When our lender raised our mortgage we couldn't keep up with all of our bills and new rate. We sold stock, took on second jobs and even started selling house hold items to stay afloat. After we sat down with Paul, and told our story, the weight of this ordeal subsided. Paul explained in simple terms how we could dig ourselves out and live again without fear of losing our home. We are now in the final months of a five year plan to become financially independent and we owe it to Paul Heatherman and his team. Thank you so much Paul!! We did it!!

Paul Heatherman holds a wealth of expertise and interpersonal skills to advise clients on numerous legal concerns. I highly recommend Paul because he respects a client's conscience while offering counsel that helps secure a client's future.

I first worked with Paul in 2009 to address issues related to a will, and then later to explore options and consequences related to holding medical debt. Paul patiently provided thorough explanations of all my options. I was a reluctant client, and for years, Paul continued to advise me and answer questions until I was ready to make a decision in the best interest for my future. I am of course grateful for his no-pressure and pragmatic approach, but mostly grateful for his humanity, a trait I deeply appreciated during an otherwise stressful period of discernment.

I rarely work with attorneys, but was very pleased with my dealings with Paul Heatherman. I hired him primarily to prepare a house sale agreement. He met the cost and turnaround time estimates that he had given in an inquiry phone call I made to him. He was very responsive in getting a few changes made, so that I could get the agreement signed in a timely fashion. He followed up with me to see how the purchase was progressing. Then, he went above and beyond to suggest solutions when I ran into a huge issue with getting the house proceeds disbursed. He was very available and responsive throughout the entire process.

Best "lawyer" experience we've ever had! Paul and his team were very professional, efficient, fast and friendly. We had a bad experience with another lawyer and were very discouraged in our search for a real estate attorney. We were referred to Paul Heatherman. We are so pleased with the work he and his staff did for us!

Paul did an amazing job of helping us get our finances back in order after a five year period as a single income family, while paying all medical bills out of pocket for my husband's treatments that insurance refused to cover.
Paul was able to get a Chapter 13 approved on a payment that we can totally afford and has taken a ton of unneeded stress away from my family so we can focus on what really matters.
Paul also took plenty of time with us, explaining all options while weighing the pros and cons. I truly believe Paul had our best interest in mind throughout the entire process. I would refer the people I care about the most to Paul's office.

My husband and I listed our home "For Sale By Owner" to avoid paying a real estate commission. I called several attorneys inquiring about their fees, and was given an hourly rate with no commitment to what it may cost. Paul, was straight-forward and gave me a very reasonable flat fee to complete all necessary paperwork. My experience has been great, and would highly recommend him.

My wife and I needed a Land Sales Contract for a lot we were selling in Bend. Being several hours away Paul was the only Attorney that would talk to us by phone, accepting a credit card to get it started. Paul did the Land Sales Contract for us for approval. After receiving the final draft we were able to give copies to all needed parties. The time frame of completion, professionalism and price were all appreciated.

Paul Heatherman rocks! I called TEN attorney offices to see about my personal injury case, including the ones all over TV. Paul was the ONLY one who actually wanted to speak with me in person, which was really nice. The other 9 firms all refused to take my case. Paul is intelligent, astute, realistic, and personable. And, he got me a settlement. Everybody in the whole office was great, too. Thank you, Paul!

I was subjected to a Small Claims action in Deschutes County. I was being sued for over $4,000. After one meeting with Paul, I attended my hearing (alone of course) and I was able to convince the judge to reduce the damages to $1,500 using Paul's advice. I saw Paul again today for a Landlord Tenant matter, and I feel comfortable that my issue will be resolved quickly and lawfully. So far, Paul has been a one stop shop for me and I strongly endorse his skillful legal knowledge.

I am a mortgage banker here in Bend and had clients who were in pretty bad shape financially. They did have lots of equity in their very large home and my recommendation was that they sell their home, payoff all their debt and downsize into something smaller since it was just the two of them. They decided to look at other options, one being bankruptcy and chose Paul for advice. Paul advised them to do exactly what I advised and I was so impressed that he chose to do the right thing even though it meant losing a client. Also Paul wasn't aware this couple had met with me the week before and had no knowledge of the conversation I had with them. I have given out several of his business cards already!

My home was underwater and I was on the verge of losing it when I first met Paul and his team. I'd been unable to achieve a home loan modification through my own efforts. I'd talked to other attorneys. None wanted to take on associated legal work, aside from bankruptcy processes. A friend referred me to Paul's team. That's when my home loss process became history. Paul dealt with the active foreclosure lawsuit and managed negotiations for a new loan modification process. His team handled all contacts with my mortgage service company until the modification was granted and a new financing contract established. Paul also negotiated a second mortgage buyout to clean my residual "underwater mess." He always has been available and responsive to immediate and long-term situations. Thank you, Paul Heatherman! I'll call you again for all future legal needs. Five Stars for sure.

When I first found Paul I was in a dire situation. It was a Saturday and I had 48 hours to stop a bank from "stealing" our home ... suffice it to say that 4 years, 3 law suits (both in Federal and State court, we prevailed and got what we were after. Paul was always the voice of reason and proved to be both honest and direct with me at every level. His professionalism was unsurpassed and I believe was the reason we saved our home.

I would HIGHLY recommend Paul for ANY legal work you may need. Should you need a referral or have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask Paul for my direct phone number.

Best regards,

After working off and on with Paul over the course of seven years, I could not recommend a more professional, honest and talented attorney. He has helped me through so many different cases and his promptness to any matter, will be forever cherished. I will never be able to thank him enough for his hard work and dedication to each and every client. Most importantly, I thank Paul for listening, helping me and educating me over the years. I would not be where I am today without him. Thanks with all of my heart and keep being the wonderful person and attorney that you are.

I've known Paul for over five years. I originally sought his help with reviewing a contract to build a home. His knowledge of contract law, building practices, and zoning laws was extremely helpful in avoiding several potential problems before they happened. The reasonable fee he charged was more than offset by the timely value of his advice.

A few years later I was injured in an auto accident. Once again, I sought Paul's advice. His help was crucial in both my physical recovery, and in recovering damages from the insured motorist who hit me.

There are occasions in life when we all find ourselves dealing with an important transaction, or an injury, etc. At those times it's crucial to get good advice and guidance from someone we trust who has real expertise. I can recommend Paul Heatherman whole-heartedly as just such a person. He looks after the interests of his clients with a high level of personal attention, integrity, and service.

I met Paul Heatherman a couple of years ago when I needed an attorney and I am so glad that he was my choice! He was incredibly knowledgeable regarding my case and I felt as though he genuinely cared about the outcome. I was expecting someone stuffy and intimidating like some lawyers I have encountered in the past, but he personable and kind. If I should ever need legal advice in the future I will definitely be using him again...
