- Don't be a dill weed.

Above The Law.
Heller Highwater is not:
- a place to practice viscious and vindictive "whisper down the lane" rumour-mongering;
- a place to bad mouth co-workers;
- a place for diatribes against specific people or specific incidents;
- a place to heap pity on poor Heller Ehrman staff by outsiders;
- a place that discriminates or sets margins noting who is outside and who is inside - we even welcome supportive Heller Ehrman attorneys!;
- meant to further the demise of Heller Ehrman, LLP.
Heller Highwater is:
- a place for support, a place of empowerment, a place of passion;
- a place to learn about job leads, resume preparation, skill building, training, new opportunities, and how to succeed in a new workplace;
- a place to keep up on the latest news as to how Heller Ehrman management intends to treat its support staff as it winds down its operations - will it be every woman for herself? or will it be "let me hold the door for you and is there anything else I can do for you"?
- a place of refuge.

I don’t see any of us lowly staff benefiting from this lawsuit. I wonder why they didn’t file this lawsuit as soon as they became aware of the issue. Probably had something to do with bankruptcy law, I don’ know. I guess the Heller Estate had its reasons.
Yeah, I’m still a little bit bitter.
I can’t imagine any one of us ex-Hellerites have enjoyed much over the last 3 years, and some of us are still wishing we could turn the clock back! I tell people at my firm, it was the BEST!! I am lucky to be working is my motto now and am happy to see dear friends from HE for lunch every now and again. If the lawsuit prevails and there is a monetary settlement or judgment, I can’t imagine it would make it’s way to us? And if it does, they take 90% of it for taxes like the last disbursement. To all in the LA HE Office, miss you and hope you are all doing well!!!
Although I wishfully thought to be receiving a check from the last disbursement of checks, I am very glad to move on and have Heller Ehrman in the past. I don’t like to talk about a firm that doesn’t exist anymore except in our memory. I’m very happy and proud to stay in contact with who I consider “the best” at Heller.
