Our law office is in Victorville at 14338 Park Ave, and we handle family law cases throughout the High Desert and the rest of San Bernardino County. We appear regularly at the High Desert District courthouse at 14455 Civic Dr in Victorville — just minutes from our office. When you call our Victorville family law attorney, you reach someone who knows the local courts and the community.

Victorville is the economic center of the High Desert, with a growing population of families who need experienced, locally-based family law representation. Whether you live in Victorville, Hesperia, Apple Valley, Adelanto, or further afield in San Bernardino County, our Certified Family Law Specialist is here to help you through divorce, custody disputes, support matters, and everything in between.

We also serve clients throughout San Bernardino County — from the major cities of Rancho Cucamonga and Ontario to smaller mountain and desert communities — with flexible legal coaching options for those who prefer to handle portions of their case with our guidance rather than full representation.

What It Means to Be a Certified Family Law Specialist

Heather Lewis is a Certified Family Law Specialist — a credential conferred by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization. This is not a self-designated specialty or a marketing claim. It is a formal certification that requires passing a rigorous written examination, demonstrating at least five years of active family law practice, receiving favorable peer reviews from other family law specialists, and completing ongoing approved education in family law.

Fewer than 1% of attorneys licensed in California hold this certification. When you are looking for a family law attorney in Victorville or San Bernardino County, the Certified Family Law Specialist designation is one of the most reliable indicators of genuine expertise in this field.
