Words cannot begin to express how grateful I am to Max and Nicolette for all of their help with my case. They were extremely patient in answering many of my naive questions and their friendliness helped alleviate my anxiety regarding the matter. I will definitely be passing on their information. Thanks again!

My case was essentially a traffic violation that somehow got escalated. Attorney Hiltner was thorough, followed through, fought for me, and ultimately won a favorable decision! If you need representation, don't hesitate to contact his office.

Max was a pleasure to work with. He is a straight shooter, great communicator, got things done in court as quickly as permitted by law, achieved a better outcome than I’d anticipated, and helped me out beyond the scope of my original case. I have recommended Max to multiple friends whom have all enjoyed similar results and had nothing but good things to say about Max.

I was supporting a friend going through a really rough time with the law. The prosecutor was relentless and it seemed every angle we approached got shot down. With research we found Max. When we sat down and talked to Max and Andrew, not only were they professional, they were empathetic and compassionate. They are genuine in their work and in their words. These are guys that you want in your corner, they fight against all odds, they Pioneer new avenues To fight for you, they stay up-to-date on recent cases that may apply to your current case. While going through the legal battle, they also used informative information, keeping my friend in the loop every step of the way. Explaining legal terms, taking the time to lay out the picture. I am writing this review to give credit to this team of lawyers, Being a veteran, there are a few people I’d trust to have my back in combat, but if it was a legal battle These are the guys I want to have my back. They work timely, efficiently, and professionally to secure the best outcome possible. They demonstrated that clients aren’t just a paycheck. They authentically care about each individual person they work with, Understanding the person‘s background, the family they have, They label the importance of the individual they’re representing as if it were themselves. I gave them five stars because they do their homework, They’re personable, Genuinely care about the individual, They work relentlessly, And their work is outstanding.
