About Us
Tom Heller and John Wiegenstein formed Heller Wiegenstein PLLC in January, 1997. Although Tom and John learned their trade in larger firms, they chose to create a new environment where they could provide the expertise of a larger firm but with the personal attention – and value to our clients – of a smaller firm.
Twenty years later, Tom has retired and moved with his family to Europe to begin a new chapter in life. John and attorney Elisha Smith continue to serve the firm’s long-standing clients as well as new clients who appreciate our speedy, direct contact between clients and attorneys, hands on knowledge of each file, reduced overhead, and rapid decision making.
We live in Kitsap County, and our office is located in Poulsbo. We serve both the metropolitan Puget Sound corridor, the Olympic Peninsula counties, and surrounding areas of Western Washington. We practice in Washington’s state trial and appellate courts, and also in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington.
