A True Professional who will lead the way for you.
I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Daniel during my recent hearing. From day one, I couldn't have been happier with my experience working with Daniel and his entire team he has working alonside him. Prior to meeting with Daniel, I discussed my case with 5 or 6 other potential attorneys and Daniel was the only one who offered any sort of follow up calls or emails asking about my case and if he could be of any help to me? To me, that was a true testament to his moral character. Going to court is obviously a very intimidating experience for most people especially, if you've never had to hire an attorney, before. From my initial phone call with Daniel, he was extremely honest, patient, and he took the time to explain every single detail to me and what I should expect to happen along the way in my case. His attention to detail, case-building skills, composure, and outright professionalism were second to none! Daniel is very knowledgeable, assertive, and confident in his profession. One aspect that really stood out for me was his availability and how quickly his response time was when I did have a question for him. I researched quite a few other attorneys prior to hiring Daniel and one very common complaint that I read over and over again was how long other attorney's seemed to take to respond back to you with an answer. Daniel always responded to me in less than 24 hours with an answer. Obviously, I realize that I am not Daniel's only client that he was working with at the time, but he always made me feel like I was his only client! It seemed like he took a personal interest in my case and saw it through to the very end. His ability to listen and communicate with me was critical in my choice in hiring his firm. Daniel and his entire team really did a tremendous job along the way and I couldnt speak any higher of his law firm. If you are faced with the unfortunate decision of having to hire an attorney, I would highly recommend hiring Daniel and his team. They are there for you and they really do care

Happy and relievedwitht the outcome
When I first left a very bad situation and wanted to get divorce, i really didnt know what to do or expect. I had a very traumatic experience and Sean and the whole office were very patient and took the time to help me through the whole process, but I also felt like they actually cared about my situation and everything going on.

Review of attorney: Alexis Lindvall of Daniel Hutto firm.
My experience through my divorce case with Alexis, Chealsea and the rest of the team was incredible. They handled it very professionally. When I needed advice or information to help me make difficult legal decisions on my case they were always there for me. Everything has been done on time and on point. I highly recommend Daniel's legal team.

Than you
Daniel assisted me in converting a traffic infraction from a criminal to a civil nature. He helped me a lot, and I can't express how much I appreciate his commitment to making my goals a reality. As a criminal defense lawyer, I would strongly advise him. He answers nicely and is very open and honest in every circumstance.

Review of attorney: Sean Campbell of Daniel Hutto firm.
Prior to hiring Sean, I had retained multiple attorneys and spent hours researching boutique firms specializing in family law. Finding the right lawyer proved to be more difficult than I expected. I am the custodial parent with shared legal rights. Co-parenting became stressful once my ex was married and I was constantly dealing with harassment from her spouse. In addition, I discovered an incident had taken place in my ex’s home which involved crimes of a serious nature. I was extremely concerned for my child’s safety and needed to file an emergency motion. During the initial custody hearings my ex’s attorney was very aggressive. He has a reputation for being cantankerous, rude and outspoken. Only 1 of the 4 attorneys I previously hired was able to successfully litigate against him. I grew more concerned because I was running out of time. Fortunately, I found Sean Campbell. Partner with David Hutto’s firm. I was thoroughly impressed with the reviews, so I scheduled a consultation. I met with Shannon a principal partner of Hutto. I explained to her the severity of my case and was curious to know if the firm had any experience litigating against the opposing attorney. She knew exactly who he was and recommended Sean with no hesitation. I had to pay a premium, but it was well worth it. The opposing counsel’s theatrics did not phase Sean. He knew exactly how to handle this character. Sean tactfully exposed the truth behind all the ridiculous accusations and excuses they had prepared as a defense. He kept his cool and was able to clearly articulate all my concerns to the judge. Long story short, now I have sole decision-making rights of my child. Sean is no joke. I was impressed with his level of integrity. Much obliged Sir. I can’t thank you enough. I also must give credit to his Paralegal Natasha. I got a response to every call and email I sent on time. Sean is highly competent in family law. Having dealt with attorneys from the highest rated firms I consider Sean among the upper echelon. C.V.

Excellent Representation
I was super stressed with handling my post-divorce case. However, the Law Office of Daniel Hutto helped out and made the experience pass quickly! Sean Campbell and Kristine Williams were a huge help in this process. By far, the best people to help in these situations. There was no "limbo" phase, I wanted business handled and it got handled. Every step was explained and nothing was handled that I didn't know about. Thank you Sean, thank you Kristine, and thank you to everyone who helped me through the stress of my post-divorce case. I always talk about how much help I received and I will be telling everyone I meet that needs a lawyer, to go see the excellent staff at The Law Office of Daniel Hutto.

Lacey and staff very professional
Currently working with Lacey on a custody case. Very good communication and takes the time to go through the options and how to proceed. Being out of state is tough, I do better in face to face visits. Everything was relayed with haste and purpose. Just went through the first portion of our case and couldn’t have asked for a better lawyer. Everything was laid out and very well organized. Made sure the questioning and such was as smooth as possible. Will not be talked over in the courtroom but responds with respect and tact.

Completely satisfied
I could not have selected a better team to handle my divorce case. Shannon, Daniel, and the rest of the team over at the Law Office of Daniel Hutto were incredible. From the initial call, throughout the process, and even after finalization of my divorce the team handled everything with the highest regard to professionalism. All communication was timely, direct, and extremely actionable. Because of this I feel very satisfied with the outcome and the level of protection I feel moving forward. Strongly recommend a consultation if you are in need of their services.

Amazing Lawyers and Staff!
This law firm and staff are exceptional. Daniel, Shannon and John are intelligent and compassionate, and do everything possible to help their clients navigate the hardest times in their lives. Their team is fair, honest and straight forward. They respond quickly and efficiently, but don't waste your money and unnecessarily increase costs. Many lawyers will tell you what you want to hear to get your business--not what you need to hear to get the best results. However, this office always has your best interests at heart and provides the most reasoned and thorough advice. They treat their clients with respect and empathy and it is obvious how passionate they are about their work and clients. You will never be disappointed you chose this firm. I would recommend them to anyone dealing with a difficult family law or criminal case.

I’ve been working with Sean for a few months now and he has always been upfront honest and transparent with me about anything going on potential options and potential setbacks that’s not some thing I’ve come across talking to other attorneys but it’s definitely something I really appreciate because I like to know everything out in front of me and the people here have been very sympathetic towards me and my case they gone above and beyond anything I expected them to do and they’ve been a very accommodating every step of the way

Custody
Sara Lofland and Nitasha Wheeler, were so helpful and kind through my entire process. It is hard to separate with custody concerns, and even harder when the other side isn’t being truthful. Sara and her team got me the custody agreement I was asking for from the beginning. It is scary to turn over personal information and trust that your lawyer can come up with an effective strategy to get you access to your child that you deserve. On a personal recommendation, I was told that Sara could do this, and she did. I am very happy with my results. If you are looking for someone who understands the process in-depth, and you can trust with the intimate details of your relationship, Sara and her team are for you. I tried to process my separation myself, and was met with false accusations. Sara picked up my case in the middle of the process, and was on a short timeline to deliver custody of my daughter. My anxiety was met with understanding, and a willingness to sort through the evidence I had gathered to submit to the judge for a win. My only regret is that I didn’t retain her sooner, so I didn’t have to wonder through processing the initial paperwork on my own.

Professional, attentive, and intelligent!!!
I switched to this firm from another attorney who was a disaster. They handled everything! They always give you a breakdown of where your money is spent. I never went without talking to my attorney when I needed or wanted to. I was assigned Sean Campbell. I can’t say enough about this gentleman! He was always there for me with the best advice and guidance. Even when I didn’t wanna hear it. He talked to me like a friend and made a tumultuous situation calm down for me significantly. When going through these tough dealings, someone like this can bring back some positive in your life. Sean was also very professional and intelligent at all times. He knew the right steps to take and the correct advice to give. Lastly, I have one example of how much he will go to bat for you. I was ordered to undergo an alcohol assessment, sage counseling was impossible to get ahold of and even harder to get an appointment scheduled. That organization is an absolute mess. Sean, knowing how important this was to me having custody of my kids went above and beyond to contact them and set up an appointment for me. Honestly I didn’t wanna do it to begin with, and I was done wasting time out of my busy days to try contacting them any further. But Sean stepped up and got it done for me because he genuinely cares.
