Heather Weiler
Firm Administration
Heather is a new addition to the legal profession after a 22-year career with Intuit as a business/systems/data analyst and the all-around go-to person for advice, information and, “where-on-earth do I find this?”
Originally from Seattle, she earned her Bachelor of Arts in General Studies – Humanities at Washington State University which has turned out to be much more useful than she (or her parents) thought at the time. She has since pursued additional education in statistics and analysis. Heather and her husband Rex started making their way south in the mid 90’s, landing in Reno, Nevada for about 10 years where both their sons were born. When they had their fill of winter weather, the Weiler family continued on to Arizona. Because Heather has extensive experience and expertise herding cats, she manages the Tucson Office for Copeland Law Offices.
She also tackles those projects that require particular perseverance and troubleshooting capabilities. Heather makes her home in Tucson/Vail with her husband and (almost) adult sons. She does in fact serve two household cats on a demand basis (they are cats, it’s constant), and cooks fantastic food for her family and others when the mood strikes her.
