Leland represented me in a criminal case. He was able to handle my case very efficiently & explain every step to me, making sure I was comfortable and understanding everything. I was 100% confident the entire time that Leland would find the best possible outcome for me and my future. He broke the case down from the beginning and reviewed each and every part in order to give me possible options and routes we would take. Criminal cases are very stressful, but having Leland on my side took a big weight off my shoulders. Leland has prior experience dealing with the court system and I believe he will satisfy all your needs in a lawyer. I completely recommend him to anyone in a tough situation, not knowing what to do, Leland will provide the help you need!

Leland was a huge factor in getting me the best deal I could of imagined. Due to my past record I was looking at years in prison but thanks to Leland I'm able to continue my career and try to put the past behind me. Leland experience as a prosecutor paid dividends in my case. I can't thank Leland enough for what he's done for me and my family. Our judicial system is out for the People's money, once in the system, it's hard to get out. So if you're looking for someone to help you through the process and obtaining a favorable outcome, I'd highly recommend Leland to represent you. He cares for you, he's responsive to all questions, and he will without doubt, get you the best possible outcome for you case. Thanks Leland!

Leland was great to work with on my case. He got as positive of an outcome as I could have hoped. He was readily available to answer any questions I had.

Mr. Hulbert has been my lawyer for almost 2 years now regarding a child support and custody agreement case. He has done an above average job even with the other party being non compliant most times. From the very beggining he has always had myself and my childs best interest at heart. He has walked me through each step of the process and explained each task that he does quite well. I will continue to be a client of Mr. Hulbert's as well as recommend him to anyone in search of a distinguished and brilliant criminal and family court lawyer!

Leland Hulbert provided our family superb direction in navigating our way through the legal system. He offered options, upfront information about fees, and honest discussion about how the course of my son's case would go. He handled every step of the way, exactly as he said it he would.

Leland was the 4th attorney I contacted. The first one seemed to care about the case, the next 2 didn't seem to care at all and never followed up with me. Leland was able to get all charges dismissed. Thank you! He was not the 'cheapest' nor the most expensive, I feel the cost was more than fair considering the cases he worked on for me and the extremely positive resulting outcomes. He was also not flippant or extremely conservative in regards to outlook of possible outcomes - meaning, he didn't promise anything, he used his experience as a prosecutor to prepare me for what would be most likely to occur. He was easy to get in touch and VERY responsive. When someone is under extreme stress, this is such a good thing and I am grateful for that.

Mr. Hulbert put in great effort to keep me from getting a felony. He wrote a letter to the prosecutor on my behalf. Has followed up with me after the sentencing to make sure I'm aware of my options in order to satisfy the courts demands.
