Excellent attorney

Mr. Hackett was professional, thorough and extremely knowledgeable regarding my case. His knowledge and expertise on sex crimes made me confident he could handle the job, and he did just that. The outcome was more than I expected.

Oui defense

I retained Mr. Hacket for an oui in lake county Michigan. He is a very professional and knowledgeable defense attorney and handled my situation beautifully. I would highly recommend Mr. Robert Hacket if you need a great defense.
