My case was extremely hard to win - yet Mr. Hackett won my case!! At my trial, Mr. Hackett got the judge to exclude the prosecution's evidence and have all public records of my arrest sealed!! I learned about Mr. Hackett by asking another lawyer in the area that did not feel qualified in handling...
"Bryan is an excellent criminal defense attorney. He has a calm, relaxed demeanor that puts people at ease. He is very familiar with the local court system and uses that knowledge to get good results for his clients."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. Brian Hackett is a true professional who puts his client's interests first. He zealously researches and argues the law, communicates well with clients, and possesses excellent follow through skills. I hope to continue to work on cases with Mr. Hackett and would highly recommend him as I respect his ethics and passion."
