Testimonials

“I had a very complicated divorce settlement from a divorce that was 22 years ago and John was excellent! He kept me informed with each step of this very drawn out process. However, had I not used his services I would have definitely done myself a disservice. I highly recommend him if you ever need a family lawyer!”
– Rhonda Jenkins

“John represented me during my divorce proceedings. Even though the other party made the process as difficult as possible, John’s professionalism remained steadfast, and I appreciated his persistence in getting the many issues resolved. Because of this, John made me feel confident that I selected the right attorney to help me through this trying time. John was very timely with his responses when I needed a question answered and his advice and recommendations were very informative. I would HIGHLY recommend John if you are looking for a GREAT divorce attorney.”

“I am glad that I chose you to represent me. Here are positive experiences that come to mind:

• During our initial meeting, you took the time to explain the different options available to terminate a marriage. You did not push me to take any specific option, nor did you push that I should select you as my attorney.
• Your flexibility to meet on weekends and late afternoon/early evening to accommodate our work schedules
• Quick response time via email and phone and making yourself available to talk via phone when you were traveling/out of office
• Your willingness to answer questions and explain the process
• I felt that you were genuinely trying to help me throughout the process and fully focused during any conversations and meetings.”

“John Heilbrun was recommended to me by a co-worker as a lawyer for my divorce proceedings. I was as pleased as possible on the outcome of the divorce and very impressed with John’s work during it. I have since recommended Mr. Heilbrun to other friends and co-workers and stand firmly behind my endorsement of him. John is highly skilled and tremendously professional, but is also down to earth enough to be compassionate of your feelings. We have been to court a half dozen times, and each time I am impressed by the fact that everyone within the court system knows and calls John by his first name. I can recall a single event which I believe speaks volumes to John’s standing with the courts and judges. During my final divorce hearing, the judge was missing a crucial financial spreadsheet from her packet. She asked for John’s copy and blindly accepted it as gospel on his word alone. I found no higher outside praise than that. You cannot find a better attorney than John Heilbrun.”
– Mike

“The disintegration of my marriage and subsequent divorce were the worst things that I have ever had to go through in my life. My spouse, the person who I had trusted and committed my life to, lied to me, lied about me, stole money and personal possessions from me, made false accusations about me in court, and worst of all attempted to deny me the opportunity to be a vibrant active and involved father to my two sons.

Dealing with this was a long and difficult process, but thankfully I had John Heilbrun representing me. John is smart, confident, and has exquisite knowledge of family law in the Cincinnati area. Thanks to him, I have my life back, and my children are with me the majority of the time. I would recommend John’s talents to anyone seeking legal representation.”

“Thank you. I have been thoroughly impressed with your service you have provided me. You always were attentive and very professional.”

“What was most valuable to me in working with John was how he began. He asked me my objectives, and these became the guideposts for future discussions and decisions. It is easy to become distracted by the emotional elements of a divorce, and he kept me focused on how we began.

I found him supportive and educational. I felt empowered and comforted and further appreciated his respect for my now ex-husband as well.”
– LM

“John has vigorously advocated my interests and protected my parental rights with a successful outcome. He communicated a clear direction for me to make intelligent choices in achieving the desired results of having my daughter a big part in my life.”
– Garry

“John Heilbrun helped me through a very difficult collaborative divorce process. He has a wonderful demeanor to go along with an excellent understanding of the law. His patience and diligence allowed us to reach a satisfactory conclusion to our divorce. I would highly recommend his services.”
– Dirk

“John Heilbrun demonstrated strong legal and financial expertise during my collaborative divorce. He was also firm (when needed), timely and empathetic. Through his leadership and guidance, the emotionally difficult process went as smooth as it could possibly be. I highly recommend him as a collaborative divorce attorney.”
– J.F.

“John Heilbrun began working with me on my divorce case in March 2015, and he worked tirelessly for me until the case was finished. He paid no attention to the clock when it came to responding to my concerns, and he addressed all issues with detailed attention. He was a master at writing proposals, filing motions for court, conducting depositions, etc… that resulted in favorable results for me, his client. I was able to count on him consistently even in those “darkest of hours” during the process.

My divorce was complicated, atypical and frightening in many respects, and I felt I was in very strong legal hands right from the start with John. He proved to be an expert with divorce laws, and very professional and honorable in all facets of the long, methodical process that must be gone through when ending one’s marriage.

At the end of the day/and the closing of my case, we mutually agreed that I fared very well under the circumstances.

I am comfortable knowing that John will be there for me as the years go by whenever I need legal help of any kind; if it’s his area of expertise, he’ll handle things with ease for me or refer me appropriately. He’s actually a “one-stop-shop” with excellent referrals.”
– A. Payne

“John was patient and available. I went into the situation thinking it would be straightforward and simple and it was anything but and he was there every step of the way. Thanks!”
