Hillary Brower, Esq.
Of Counsel
My primary goal has always been to deliver the best possible results for you regardless of the cost to me. If you are a client with a criminal complaint pending against you, I will never sacrifice your rights to an unnecessary plea bargain in order to avoid the costs of a trial. If you are a client with a family law matter, I will make it my job to obtain the very best results I can to ensure your future.
I will spend the time needed to prepare your case and bring in whatever resources are needed, even when it means hiring experts outside the firm. My high standards of conduct and excellent case results have distinguished my firm among my clients and solidified my loyal client base of 34 years.
