Posted by Kendra | March 07, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Personal Injury

Personal Injury Lawyer

Mr. Hilgeman had represented me after an accident in April 2016 that had placed me in Miami Valley Trauma floor for a week. I sustained multiple injuries that caused me to lose work for three months. Battling this injury, we had hired him to battle the legal stuff so I wouldn't have to worry about so...mething else. When we requested him, he had personally came to meet me to learn about my case, because I was unable to met with him in his office. He was very professional, caring, and motivated to provide me with the best care and get the best outcome we could get. Not once did I feel he was only there to get his share of the money. He stopped the nonstop calls I was receiving from the other guys insurance immediately, always asked for my input, great with communicating, and would make sure you knew exactly what was going on. I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again if I ever needed to be represented again in the future.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
