Heather’s Background

Button-pusher. Truth-teller. Fearless advocate for the injured and ignored.

My high school journalism teacher called me a button-pusher. She wasn’t wrong. But today, I push buttons with purpose—and I do it on behalf of the people who need it most.

I push the buttons of corporations that gamble with public safety to protect their profits. I push the buttons of insurance companies that pretend a life-altering injury is worth pennies. I push the buttons of pharmaceutical giants that put greed ahead of human lives. I push back—hard—because my clients deserve someone who won’t let up.

Before I graduated with honors from SMU Dedman School of Law and earned the Order of Barristers distinction, I was a journalist. I spent years exposing the truth and holding the powerful accountable. That’s where I learned that storytelling isn’t just powerful—it’s revolutionary. And now, I use that skill where it matters most: in the courtroom.

Your story has the power to recall dangerous products.
To expose corporate negligence.
To spark change.
To demand justice.

I’ve spent my legal career representing people from across the country who’ve been devastated by negligence, betrayal, and corporate carelessness. And while I can’t undo what happened, I can make sure your story is heard—and that it shakes the foundations of the companies responsible.

At Carter Law Group, we Fight Like a Mother—with unapologetic fire, fierce loyalty, and relentless precision. I’m not afraid to push buttons. In fact, I’ve built a career out of it.

Let’s make your story impossible to ignore.
