Marylou Elin Hillberg

Mary Lu Hilberg took my writ of habeas case accusing another attorney by the name of Monte Hanson of . Negligent representation. This is very brave and noble to do within the attorney ranks. As it is very true that the attorneys like to look out for one another. Even when neglect or plain bad represe...ntation is written all over the wall. It seems like yesterday, but I guess it was quite a long time ago 23 years. It was 1991 when I chose Monty Hanson to represent me as a private attorney in the Sonoma County courts. I was 29 years old and I had a bit of drugs and an unloaded gun . Monte Hanson got me 14 plea bargained to 9 years, got out in 5. First time in prison. I got out in 97 got married and have been working steady ever since. Mary Lou Hillburn reviewed the case and found a slew of mistakes. Therefore she found it reasonable to challenge the misrepresentation. She fought the case for years on appeal. We did not win but I have the most dedication and appreciation to Mary Lou Hill Berg's demeanor and stubborn stances to do the right thing . This is an attorney that will not lie to you and will go to bat for the best outcome that she's able to get.good luck in your battles
