Very very good work!

I had an excellent experience working with Andrew. He was consistently responsive and ensured that all of my questions were addressed in a timely manner. His knowledge and ability to clearly explain complex matters were invaluable throughout the process. Andrew is professional, diligent, and committe...d to securing the best possible outcome for his clients. I highly recommend his services to anyone in need of a dependable and skilled attorney.

From Stress to Success – An Unbeatable Legal Team

I can’t thank Andrew enough for what he did for me. He and Colleen won my DUI trial, and I truly believe it wouldn’t have been possible without their dedication and expertise. From the very beginning, Andrew was extremely responsive — always available to answer my questions and explain everything cle...arly. He’s incredibly knowledgeable about DUI law and the court system, and it shows in how confidently and strategically he handled my case. One thing that really stood out was how proactive he was — he filed numerous motions that ultimately benefited my case and played a big role in the successful outcome. He didn’t just go through the motions; he went above and beyond at every stage. He genuinely cared about my situation and put in the extra effort to make sure I had the best possible defense. If you need a sharp, dependable, and hardworking attorney, I highly recommend Andrew. With Andrew and Colleen at your side, be confident and hold on for the ride.

Exceptional!!!

I can’t thank Andrew enough for the exceptional care he took in handling my daughter’s case. After she was wrongfully arrested, I reached out to him the night before, and by the next morning, he had already obtained all the police documentation we had been struggling to get for days. Without ever men...tioning fees, he assured us that he would take care of everything, and he kept that promise. His professionalism, compassion, and dedication stood out from the start, making us feel supported and confident throughout the process. He handled the case with such expertise, ultimately clearing my daughter’s name and expunging her record. I’ve never had an experience like this with any attorney before – Andrew went above and beyond, and we are incredibly grateful. We would highly recommend him, especially to anyone who’s never had a good experience with an attorney. He will make you think differently because he truly is different.

BEST ATTORNEY EVER!!!

Wow. Where do I even begin?? So this unfortunately wasn’t my first time in legal trouble or retaining an attorney. However, this was the first time that not only was I satisfied by my attorney, but BLOWN AWAY!! I was incarcerated and the day before my court date my mother retained Andrew Hibbert. He ...immediately came up to see me in person before my court hearing - letting me know that he was retained and the next steps we were going to take. My process was not an easy one by any means- we were facing many obstacles between a VOP, new charges, and an original charge carrying minimum 4 years. Prison seemed liked the only answer I was going to get, and then only answer/solution the public defender was giving me before this meeting with Andrew. He fought and fought for me for MONTHS- in negotiations with the state attorney, hiring outside investigators and specialists, mental health doctors- the whole nine. Not only was he constantly taking action, but he also CONSTANTLY informed me of what was going on every single step of the way. He would come to see me in jail to give me updates so I wasn’t just sitting there wondering and fearing the unknown. He was in consistent contact with my family on the outside, reassuring them of what was going on and what options we were looking at. Yes, you heard me right… an attorney that ACTUALLY returns your calls and gives you updates without having to constantly harass to try to get ahold of. He actually looks at you as a person, not for the mistake you made. He will fight for you, he cares. He wants the best for you. He will also tell you the truth and how it is. I’ve had attorneys before that would promise me they could do something, take my money, and then not follow through with said promise. It was a money grab for them. Andrew is the opposite of this- he informed me of the real possibilities/realities of what I could be facing- but did promise that even though he could not predict what the outcome could be- with his knowledge, negotiation, skill, and experience- that he thought we had a chance. He literally blew me away with the representation he gave me. I don’t have any words besides THANK YOU, ANDREW! Thank you for taking on this challenge, thank you for reassuring my family and myself through this entire process of everything happening and keeping in contact. Thank you for not judging me by my mistakes, but making it where I have a chance to correct them. THANK YOU FOR FIGHTING FOR ME! You have given me another chance at life with my children, and a life where I can be my best self. Just thank you, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. If anyone has felt the uneasiness of having to hire an attorney and not being sure who to go for- IM TELLING YOU- Andrew Hibbert is the one for the job. You will not be disappointed, you will also be blown away. I promise you that. It’s been months since signing my deal and I’m still completely blown away and grateful he was the attorney I went with every single day… and I feel like I will be grateful for him for the rest of this new chance at life I now have. Again, thank you.
