I am a partner at the law firm of Mack & Associates, PLLC, and spearhead the practice's criminal defense and personal injury divisions. I am a seasoned trial attorney, and have earned statewide recognition for my criminal trial defense work, my appellate successes, and my work as a personal injury attorney specializing particularly in automobile accident litigation. My other practice areas include estate planning, estate administration, parole revocation proceedings, probation violation proceedings, DWI defense, residential real estate, and general civil litigation, and my practice spans the counties of Greene, Columbia, Albany, Schenectady, Sullivan, St. Lawrence, Rensselaer, Montgomery, Essex, Warren, Saratoga, Fulton, Schoharie and Washington.
I graduated in 2001 Summa Cum Laude from St. Lawrence University, where I finished ninth in my class and earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science. In 2004, I earned my Juris Doctor by graduating Summa Cum Laude from Albany Law School, where I finished sixth in my class. I am presently an active member of the New York State Defender’s Association, which is an organization dedicated to ensuring that criminal defendants throughout the State receive zealous and competent legal representation.
In addition, I am the firm’s resident adventure seeker, for I enjoy hiking Adirondack high peaks, riding roller coasters, extreme skiing, rock climbing, skydiving, whitewater rafting and high altitude mountaineering. I have traveled the Amazon rain forest, rafted some of the Northeast's most aggressive whitewater rapids, scuba-dived the Caribbean, hang glided over Europe, hiked the Swiss Alps, skied Spain’s Sierra Nevada mountain range, traversed the glaciers of Mont-Blanc in Chamonix France, and participated in a guided expedition on Mount Rainier. I have most recently returned from a rock climbing trip to Moab, Utah and anxiously await my next adventure.

Sale of our Home - Real Estate
We were very pleased to work with Lucas Mihuta who facilitated the closings on our house in Hudson. He was always courteous, helpful, pleasant and professional. We believe that he and his staff went above what was necessary to secure this sale. We believe we were well represented.

Best deal
My 16 year old son made a mistake that could have ruined his life, but Lucas was able to defend him and get the best possible outcome. Now my son can put this behind him and look forward to the future.. Definitely recommend him.
"I endorse this lawyer. Lucas is a brilliant criminal defense attorney. He is also a kind and caring human being. His clients are beyond lucky to have him as their counsel. We are beyond lucky to have a lawyer of his caliber working with us. I recommend Lucas without hesitation."
"Attorney Mihuta is a smart, diligent, charismatic lawyer who zealously advocates on his clients' behalves. He is an excellent trial attorney as well as an excellent writer. Highly recommend Mr. Mihuta."
"I heartily endorse Mr. Mihuta. I've known him for many years and have had an opportunity to observe him in the courtroom, outside the courtroom, and interacting with colleagues. I find him to be extremely knowledgeable, diligent and compassionate. It is important for a litigant to have an attorney that sees him or her as a person, not just a defendant. Mr. Mihuta is just such an attorney."
