Heller Highwater
"The name Heller Highwater is a reminder for all who visit to remember the “highwaters” of Heller Ehrman: when a once well-managed and well-respected firm consistently reached the high marks of integrity, efficiency, respect and dignity towards its backbone and foundation—its professional support staff. It is also a reminder of the aftermath of destruction and the mark left on the wall: how a lack of preparation, forward-thinking, open communication and honesty led to the downfall of a workplace one could be proud of. When the storm recedes, all that will be left is that mark. But a core group of intelligent, creative, and driven people won’t be around to clean up the mess. They will have moved on to better things, better places and better times. This site gives them the tools to do that."
