ABOUT The Heinrich Firm
Northern Kentucky's Trusted
Law Firm
For over 25 years, we've been helping families navigate life's most challenging legal matters with compassion, expertise, and integrity.
Our Story
Building families since 2000
The Heinrich Firm was founded with a simple mission: to provide exceptional legal representation to Northern Kentucky families during their most challenging times.
Attorney Rene Heinrich began her practice with a focus on complex litigation/personal injury, mastering her courtroom skills. After opening her own firm in 2006, Rene added family law, probate, and guardianships to the mix. She especially enjoys adoptions, having helped families grow through stepparent, grandparent, and private adoptions. Over the years, the firm has expanded to serve clients through their toughest days.
Today, The Heinrich Firm is known throughout Kenton, Campbell, Boone, Grant, and Pendleton counties as a firm that other attorneys hire when they need representation.
