      Review Aleksandra Hilvert

      Fantastic Attorney.

      Posted by

      "As a creative independent producer, I came to Lowe and Associates with an idea theft case a few years ago.   Aleksandra Hilvert of the firm proved to be unpretentious and a great listener, giving valuable advice and options.  She was honest about the possible outcomes of my issues and the costs involved. Aleksandra had integrity while working closely with me.  I always felt that she put me and my case first. There were no runarounds or attempts to convince me that spending more meant better results. She is moral, ethical and smart, very smart and in my opinion the very best at what she doe.  Really.  I could not more highly recommend her.”

      Competent, Diligent and Reasonable

      Posted by

      I came to Aleks with very factually complicated issue that I have had to repeat 100 times over the year. The issue is emotionally exhausting and financially burdensome. Aleks immediately understood the facts, complicated personalities and strategized appropriately, Some lawyers do not listen to clients and charge you to repeat yourself, whereas Aleks respected I could not afford that approach. Or worse, lawyers assume you are an imbecile and they know better. This is not the case with Aleks. She trusted that my insight into the matter at hand was accurate and important to consider.. Every task Aleks undertook to perform was completed with competency, insight, and thoroughly executed. Every communication was thoughtful, professional, and immediate. The outcome in retaining Aleks was better than I hoped to achieve. While I have no desire to retain counsel for anything, I would retain her again in a heartbeat.

      Exactly what I needed

      Posted by

      When I reached out to Aleks my contract needs were a bit all over the place. She was able to streamline my contract between all parties so that everyone felt comfortable moving forward. She was professional and able to simplify the addendums so that the contract didn't overwhelm my client and business associates. I will definitely be using Aleks in the future.

      Muskat vs CAA/Katalyst (Ashton Kutcher's former company)

      Posted by

      My case was a very complicated one with many layers. Going up against two of the biggest giants in the entertainment industry was a challenge in itself. Aleksandra dug deep into the facts and claims and researched the law well. Her understanding of how the other side would think and respond helped us on many levels. When we were presented with curve balls, she knew how to tackle them by showing them the weaknesses of the opposition's arguments. Aleksandra's sensibility and gift for eloquent speaking, and brilliance as a writer & litigator, makes me lucky to have her as my lead attorney. She worked tirelessly through the night, never taking the pressure off the other side! She stood before some very powerful lawyers in the entertainment industry...and she wasn't intimidated or bullied by them. Aleksandra is truly a star in the making!"

      Invaluable, Impeccable, Irreplacable

      Posted by

      My family was involved in a complex case that seemed to have no reasonable solution, and we had no means of hiring an atourney for our case. However, like a ray of bright light, Aleksandra beamed through our clouds and turned what would have been a legal storm into an eternal springtime. To say that Aleksandra is a godsend does not do her justice in regards to her work. Aleksandra is a phenomenal attourney, exuding professionalism and courtesy to the highest degree. She made sure to keep in frequent and constant contact, offering suggestions to make sure that our case was settled in a satisfatory way, and made sure to spare us no details. What floored me about her is how invested she was in a pro bono case. She gave it the same amount of priority as she would with any other case, which speaks volumes about both her work ethic and character. That sort of transparency and overal dedication to her work and clients makes Aleksandra an indispensable boon who is absolutely superb to work with. I urge anyone and everyone to capitalize on Aleksandra's services, because you will not be disappointed. Thank you Aleksandra for your remarkable service!

      A Great Asset for Your Corporate Arsenal...

      Posted by

      Aleksandra was not only professional, courteous and knowledgeable, but proactive in our quest for a great settlement. In fact, she would suggest offers that were far better than what we "thought" we good offers. She was always in contact with us and it did not matter what time it was she would always answer our emails in a timely and concise manner. She is one of the few attorneys that we have met that really shows an interest in your business and the situation you are dealing with. We are so glad that were referred to her and look forward to using her services in the future. We cannot thank her enough for her great work on our case.

      Thank you Aleksandra

      Aleksandra helped me determine the best legal way to move forward on a film project dealing with Life Rights. She was easy to speak with and friendly though direct. I recommend seeking her professional advice if you are in the entertainment industry and looking to protect your idea.

      Great experience!

      Posted by

      Aleksandra was amazing. Very personable and professional and helped settle our dispute with the opposing party better than I could have imagined. She fought to get us the best deal possible and her advice was spot on. I will definitely be working with her again and highly recommend her!

      An invaluable experience...

      Posted by

      I recently wrapped production on a small, independent feature film and would be remiss for overseeing Aleksandra's contribution. Despite the lack of funds available for an attorney to work on the production in it's entirety, Aleksandra could see beyond that and offered to do some transactional legal work, pro bono. To her credit, lack of compensation wasn't a factor, nor did it remove her motivation from the equation; she expeditiously gave her insight on the topics at hand, which - to me - indicates a passion and commitment to the work itself. In summation, I could not be more pleased with the results and I look forward to working with her on future endeavors.

      Highly Professional and Knowledgeable
