I highly recommend Nicole to be your representative. She is simply amazing at what she does, very knowledgeable, trustworthy, and responsive. I am very thankful to have her in my corner she stood by me and aided me in my case regarding getting the benefits I earned from the VA. I have nothing respect for her honestly and hard work ethic! Nicole is simply amazing, and hope you’d consider her if you need the help of a great attorney.

Thorough and easy to work with. I didn't really know what I needed when I started our conversation but she explained the options She really knows estate planning and really put me at ease. When I went in to sign the papers to establish my living trust, she presented me with a well organized notebook with all documents that covered everything we discussed. It was much more thorough than I expected but she explained why each form was needed and they covered every possible future eventuality. She also explained all the next steps and which forms I would need. If you need estate planning, this is the place.

I had the privilege to serve with Nicole in the Navy and she continues to show that same dedication and helpfulness to others as she did in the Navy. I had problems finding a local VSO in Texas to represent me in submitting a VA disability claim. I contacted Nicole and she represented me all the way from California. She was very professional and was committed to leading me through every step of the way. I highly recommend Nicole for all your legal matters.

I highly recommend Nicole to anyone who is in need of a smart knowledgeable attorney. She represented my Husband in Vet Court. She takes the time to listen, explain and give advice. Nicole does not fear a challenge and is an excellent choice for all your legal needs. Will definitely return for more legal advice in the future if needed.

Truly PROFESSIONAL. Makes legal decisions fun.

My husband and I worked with Nicole to finalize our family trust. Nicole was very accommodating towards our situation and she was able to guide us when it was unclear which direction we should take such as appointing a trustee and a guardian for our children. Nicole diligently undertook a research project in order to accommodate our religious beliefs. Finally, she was extremely patient and kind towards our child as he ran around the office and ate all her snacks. We are very grateful for her work.

Nicole Heffel did an outstanding job preparing my estate plan and assisting me in understanding the estate planning process. As a 12 year litigation attorney myself, I was always impressed with her substantive legal expertise as well as the organized and efficient manner in which she assisted with finalizing my estate plan. I would highly recommend her for your estate planning needs.

My wife and I worked with Paul at Heffel Law Firm on the whole suite of will, trust, power of attorney, and related documents. Paul was knowledgeable, helpful, and accommodating. My trust was especially unique because I have a special needs son. After working with Paul I have great confidence and peace that the work he did for my family and I will be a tremendous blessing to those I leave behind.

I say this sincerely--Paul made me feel like he had a personal stake in making sure every detail was exactly the way my wife and I wanted it.

I definitely recommend Paul to anyone looking for a trust or will.

I thought Nicole was really personable and down to earth, patient and willing to explain legal matters in a way I was able to better understand. She was very professional and delivered a clean, professional product with my Estate Portfolio upon our last visit.

OUTSTANDING Nicole's firm has performed in a exemplary way. Besides giving me a through estate plan, she has straightened out my VA forms, submitted them for review and has become a friend I will cherish forever.
My wife and I thank her,

In December of 2018 I lost my Uncle in LaJolla, I was his trustee. Although he had his affairs in order it was an intimidating task. I found the closest estate lawyer to his home and got so lucky that it was Nicole. She absolutely took care of all the business that was involved for a fair fee. I feel like I have a new friend! Do not hesitate hiring her for your business affairs. Five star service, I assure you!

We had the pleasure working with Paul Hilton at Heffel Law Firm. The team is very accommodating and helpful. This was our first Estate Planning for our family. Paul walked us through each step with patience to all of our questions and concerns. We are very pleased with the outcome of our Will and Trust. We have already referred our father and he was also happy with Paul! Thank you for protecting our estate Paul and Nicole!

Nicole is superb at estate planning. She is smart, well-educated and always supportive in what can be a very personal and sensitive process.

Nicole is truly amazing at what she does. I called her with a rather complex issue, which she took the time to talk me through. She was never in a rush and helped me to understand every angle that I was facing with the situation. She really helped me understand what I was walking into so that I could make an informed decision and explain it to everyone involved. When it comes to family matters and emotions are involved it gets really difficult to separate what is right to do from what the heart wants to do, Nicole made sure to keep me at a good balance so that I was able to not feel like I was losing out on one or the other in the decision making process. Truly, she's the best in this area, I wouldn't use anyone else!

Nicole is a uniquely gifted attorney and an all around pleasant person to be around. As former military and a current professional I have a certain level of expectation when I invest time or resources into someone. It seemed like every moment I spent with Nicole she was teaching me something. She clearly exceeded my expectations. She was kind when needed and fierce when needed. I highly recommend her.

My husband and I engaged the services of Nicole earlier this year for two reasons: 1) to create our estate plan document and 2) to help my husband navigate the VA system. We immediately felt that we were in good hands on both fronts. Nicole is extremely competent in both areas. She completed our estate plan in the time frame promised, answering all our questions to our satisfaction, and provided the advice we needed. A positive response was received from the VA in record time. She is very knowledgeable about veterans rights and benefits and knows how to navigate the VA system. She continues to advise us when questions arise. We highly recommend Nicole.

Nicole is a veteran and a veteran advocate that thoroughly understands Veteran issues. She is an expert in dealing with the confusing VA claims bureaucracy and assisted me step by step through this laborious process. The end result was a positive outcome with my claim being granted. Nicole has also assisted me in other legal matters with desirable outcomes. If you need someone to fight for your rights and interests call Nicole now!

Amazing experience every time. I feel extremely safe with this firm!

My wife and I were referred to the Heffel Law Firm from a friend on base. As my wife is getting ready to make the transition from active duty to civilian life, Ms. Heffel helped explain our VA benefits. And what the likely hurdles we might face with dealing with the VA. She was very knowledgeable about the topic of veterans benefits and what some of our options could be. After meeting with her we feel more confident in working with the VA. And look forward to continuing to work with Ms. Heffel as we go through the transition to civilian life.

I was referred to Nicole Heffel a few months ago when I was experiencing issues with my current landlord. Although it was not her area of expertise she graciously offered to assist me with my case. I was more than pleased with her ability to confidently pursue my case and reach a resolution within a timely manner.

Nicole is an extremely professional, personable and knowledgeable attorney. Not only was she able to explain everything to me in a manner I could understand but she did so with a smile on her face; its very obvious she loves what she does and that she is very good at what she does!

I used Heffel Law Firm to address my VA Benefits. Nicole was very knowledgeable about the VA system and the fact that she is a veteran herself made me feel comfortable trusting her with my claim.

Nicole was essential in helping me plan my estate. I had no idea where to start. She patiently and thoroughly walked me through every step. I would trust no one else with this very important matter. Thanks Nicole!
