About

Max Hiltner is a devoted trial legal professional in Akron, Ohio, who prioritizes his customers rights and works tirelessly to gain justice for them.

For maximum lawyers, it’s all approximately the cash. And it can were for me, too: I landed a soft, excessive-paying job proper out of law faculty protecting coverage groups from man or woman claims.

But I realized almost at once that my coronary heart wasn’t in it. The process, as cushty as it turned into, lacked the rush. Instead of supporting people combat their instances in front of juries as a high-quality trial attorney, I was doing research all day and representing nameless entities I had never even met.

So I cease and determined to begin my own organization where I could paintings exclusively in the direction of becoming the fine trial attorney I can be: a goal I still try for each single day. Because the component approximately being the high-quality is that you don’t ever forestall running for it. You don’t get complacent. And you in no way lose cognizance.

I shield my clients’ rights as if they’re my own — due to the fact they are. If my clients’ rights are infringed upon, then meaning anyone’s rights are infringed upon, and we’re all much less free. The singular consciousness of my firm is that humans shouldnt be described through one mistake.
