Article 78 Proceeding

Mr. Mihuta provided exceptional legal consulting throughout my complex case, demonstrating remarkable expertise in Article 78 proceeding.

Hiring Lucas was the best decision.

Lucas is an excellent lawyer. He is intelligent, thoughtful, and incredibly hard-working. He is straightforward, strategic, and practical and he communicates in a way that makes understanding the process so much simpler. It is easy to build trust and rapport with Lucas . Lucas represented me in a per...sonal injury case in which I was the victim of an automobile accident. The road to recovery was difficult and I cannot imagine how much more difficult it would have been without Lucas. I always felt safe and protected and it freed up a lot of mental space in my life to focus on healing. Lucas and his equally fantastic assistant Rebecca secured me a settlement that was far beyond my initial expectations. Their compassion and empathy was invaluable at a time when I needed it most. I cannot recommend Lucas and Rebecca enough.

Personal Injury

Lucas helped me through a tough time after I was hit head on by a drunk driver who crossed the median on I 90. He was there right from the beginning. I never would have been able to navigate all the paper work, Thankfully we had a successful outcome in a fairly short amount of time and I can put it... all behind me. I would definitely recommend Lucas for a personal injury case.

Extremely Knowledgeable, Tenacious and backed by a fantastic team

Words really can not express how satisfied we are with Lucas, and also Becky, who is in a class of her own. We came to Lucas with a property issue that was an absolute mess, and that is an understatement. Lucas told us at our first meeting that our file was out in sight and he would continue to work ...on it until it was resolved. This was a long , hard battle, but throughout it all, we were kept informed as to the next step moving forward. Lucas and Becky always answered any questions we had and always made sure we understood the entire process. We would very highly recommend Lucas. He is excellent in all he does and a great person to deal with. Thanks to everyone we dealt with at the firm. Brenda and I can’t thank you enough for everything.

Clear, Direct, Smart and Worked for my Best Interest

Lucas represented my spouse and I in the purchase of our home. I appreciated that from the beginning, he was clear about what to expect in terms of our contact with him. He was helpful and accommodating which I honestly did not expect. He always had our interest in mind. We felt we had an advocate at... the ready; exactly what you want in an attorney. He explained things to us clearly, was concise and always kind to us. Consulted with us regarding timing and followed through with addressing our concerns. He made happen, exactly what we wanted to happen, exactly when we wanted it to happen, even when we changed our minds. His fee was fair and what he stated it would be up front, is what it was in the end. I felt we got a bargain for the service he provided. He or his assistant returned calls in a reasonable time frame. He's personable as well, which helped as we were a bit anxious at times. I highly recommend his services if you need an attorney. I'm glad I found him and I would use him again if I ever need attorney services in the future.

"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."
