My mother passed away in 2024. Without my knowledge or my brother’s knowledge, my stepfather and sister completed a succession through this office. We were never notified, contacted, or included—even though we are my mother’s biological children. When I called to request basic copies of the succession, I was treated with extreme hostility and secrecy. The first woman who answered the phone (a Caucasian woman) refused to give her name at all, which immediately raised red flags. I was then transferred to another staff member who only provided a last name Ms.Lance and told me I could not receive copies or information—despite the fact that I am a legal heir. I provided my name and number months ago and was told someone would return my call. No one ever did. What makes this even more disturbing is that I already have certified copies of the succession from the Clerk of Court, yet this office still refused to provide any additional information or documentation related to the case. I was polite, calm, and respectful in every interaction, yet the staff was rude, evasive, and acted almost fearful to speak—as if they had something to hide. This office’s behavior felt shady, sketchy, and highly unprofessional, especially given the seriousness of succession matters and the legal rights of biological children. Transparency and professionalism were completely lacking. I would strongly caution anyone dealing with estates or successions to proceed carefully with this office and to ensure all heirs are properly informed and represented.
Ms. Derricka, <br><br>As I explained to you personally on the phone only moments ago, there is a matter of attorney client privilege. You are not my client. I directed you to the public records which contains every document filed by this office. My entire staff was very patient and professional despite your conduct. I’m not sure what else we could have done. Please consult an attorney if you have additional questions after reviewing the completed succession.
I am pleased with the services provided by Attorney Vessel. She made me feel like my concerns were valid and important, and offered a long term options. Healthy family solutions are top priority with her and that’s what makes her stand out.
Thank you Roni for trusting me with your family matter. We pride ourselves on putting families first by trying to avoid expensive, heated and contentious litigation that destroys the family unit long term. We favor a holistic approach guided by the law where we involve counselors mediation and good old fashion common sense. The girls are a joy and so are you. Glad I could assist you.
Took care of my case and got everything I wanted. Ms Vessel was very professional and efficient. I would use her again and recommend her to anyone that needs a lawyer.
Thank you Hamdi. I appreciate you from the river to the sea!
I recently had the pleasure of working with Attorney Heidi Vessel for my civil case, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! From the very first consultation, she demonstrated exceptional professionalism and knowledge of the law. She took the time to explain every detail of the process, ensuring I felt comfortable and informed. She or someone at her office were always available to answer my questions and provided timely updates on my case. What stood out most was her dedication to achieving the best outcome for me. She fought hard for my rights and navigated the complexities of my case with expertise. Thanks to Mrs.Vessel, I received a favorable resolution. If you need a civil attorney who is compassionate, skilled, and truly cares about her clients, look no further. I am incredibly grateful for her support and guidance throughout this process!
Bre thank you for the confidence you have placed in me. It was a pleasure working with you. I’m here if you ever need us again!
The absolute best!!! Highly recommended
Jonathan <br><br>Thank you for trusting me with your very serious legal matter. As we continue our fight…. thank you for trusting the process.
Thank you Capital Pools. We love representing small businesses. From the district court all the way to the Louisiana Supreme Court we were with you all the way proving small businesses can mount an aggressive defense and can come out on top. Thank you for allowing us to represent you in all three cases for the past three years. We are happy you were pleased with your outcome. If you need us in the future, we are ready to defend and litigate.
Mrs. Vessel and her staff are awesome. She represented me from beginning to end. My case was very tough and Mrs. Vessel adapted with every curve ball thrown. I am satisfied with the staff and their response to my questions and needs.
Melvin<br>We so appreciate your positive review and we are happy that you were pleased with the outcome. Thank you for being a valued customer and we are here if you need us in the future. Dads have rights also! Best of luck to you and your precious baby boy.
Heidi Vessel is an extraordinary attorney. She communicated with me throughout my case. Her attention to detail was second to none. I could not have gotten through this traumatic time in my life without her. She’s aggressive yet kind. She is my forever lawyer!

Rest easy in knowing that if anything happens to you, we will make sure everything is taken cared of just like you wanted. Thank you for trusting us with your affairs.
Mrs. Vessel made my first ever lawsuit an extremely easy experience. She was positive and confident the entire process and once the court date came she transformed from a sweet lawyer to a viscous lawyer. I was in ah of every word she spoke. She was on point and did her research.She won the case for my wife and I. If I ever (which I hope I don’t) need any representation again. I’m calling Mrs. Vessel! Thank you again
Ah thank you for trusting me with your matter Mr. and Mrs. Riley. I hope you will not find yourselves needing representation again, but if you do, it would be my pleasure to represent you. Thank you for your business.
I have been using Mrs.Vessel since 2018 and and her service has been extraordinary and unmatched! She’s always one call away every step of the way!
Thank you Mr. Henderson. I can’t lie, this was a tough one. Highly contentious litigation is expensive and time consuming, but you hung in there and we were with you all the way. Nothing, besides God, is more important than the safety and security of your children. Mission accomplished. And if anything kicks off again, I’m right there with you! It has been a pleasure to represent you and your family.
It was such an honor and blessing working with Ms Heidi. She is extremely knowledgeable, wise and thorough, as well as personable and considerate towards her clients and their situations/cases. She was also very professionally encouraging and supportive during my process of dealing with what was quite a difficult and emotional time for me. I highly recommend her to any and everyone I know.
Kaleshia <br>Sometimes things in life don’t workout how we plan. I’m here to make the best out of a bad situation. Never short change yourself. Always go after what’s rightfully yours. If you won’t…. I will. I gotcha ya! <br>
Heidi is literally a god send to my life !! She is a dedicated and an absolute amazing attorney. Her knowledge and experience is phenomenal and she had every single bit of the process well thought out and planned for me in my divorce case. She was very helpful at each step of my journey and I felt so comfortable working with her. I felt like I found a good friend although she was very professional too. She has an amazing staff as well and they helped me so much with my case. I highly recommend her law firm to anyone. I will give 100 stars to her !!! Thank you Heidi, you are the best !!!
Thank you Gaya<br><br>As a result of this case you are not just my client, but my friend. I love you and the kids and I’m always one call away. <br>
HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE! RUN, RUN, RUN! GAVE 1 STAR ONLY BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT ALLOW A ZERO! SHE IS NOT KNOWLEDGEABLE OF THE LAW! FILES WRONG PAPERWORK AND NEVER RETURNS PHONE CALLS OR EMAILS UNLESS SHE FEELS YOU ARE HARRASSING HER OR HER STAFF WHEN YOU NEED UPDATES ON YOUR CASE THAT YOU NEVER GET UNTIL SHE DECIDES TO SEND YOU A HALF UPDATE IN HER PORTAL TO COVER HER A**! YES MY REVIEW IS CORRECT AND I HAVE THE PROOF OF THE HORRIBLE SERVICE & HER LACK OF KNOWLEDGE, LACK OF CARE TOWARDS CLIENT! ***BEWARE....ONCE YOU PAY HER, IT WILL BE HELL GETTING GOOD RESULTS, SPEAKING TO HER ! FUTURE CLIENTS TAKE YOUR TIME & MONEY ELSEWHERE! HER STAFF IS WONDERFUL, BUT THEY ARENT THE ONES BEING HIRED, SO THEY ARE NO HELP, JUST ANSWERS PHONE TO TELL YOU...#1. SHE ISNT IN TODAY, #2. I DONT KNOW! #3. I WILL GIVE MRS VESSEL THE MESSAGE....WELL GOOD LUCK TO ANYONE THAT GOES TO HER AFTER READING THIS! I WILL BE FILING MY COMPLAINT ASAP!
