Partner
Kurt Hilbert has curated a practice that specializes in business, real estate, employment and constitutional law. He established The Hilbert Law Firm LLC in 2009 and is currently a Principal Shareholder in Kaufman & Hilbert P.C. He is a seasoned litigator, an AV Preeminent rated attorney by Martindale Hubbell, and repeatedly honored by his peers as a Georgia Super Lawyer, America’s Top 100 Civil Defense Litigators, ALM Legal Leader as featured in the Wall Street Journal, America’s Top 100 High Stakes Litigators, and Best Attorney in North Fulton County, Georgia.

Hilbert’s primary areas of practice span many different legal disciplines and decades of fine-tuning. He advocates for the freedom, privileges and immunities imbued in all citizens by the U.S. Constitution and conservative, classic western philosophical viewpoints. Hilbert does not shy away from difficult or highly politicized civil matters.

In addition to his litigation practice, Hilbert is also a registered Civil Mediator in the State of Georgia, performs mediation under ADR Georgia, LLC, and has been certified as an expert witness in several GA cases involving real estate. Hilbert oversees and supervises all matters and cases for which he is engaged to provide comprehensive customer service.

He believes attorneys should be in the “service” industry advocating clients’ needs and protecting their interests through thoughtful drafting, thorough preparation and professional representation. Litigation is what we do, advocates are who we are.

Hilbert and his litigation support team recognize that each client’s needs are unique and singular. Success comes from our ability to maintain a dynamic working environment that allows him to use his well-established foundation of knowledge to dissect the details of each unique matter, apply AI appropriately to gain strategic advantage, and to listen to each client’s needs and create and implement a plan to accomplish the goals of each client.

Hilbert is regularly honored with peer recognized industry awards symbolizing the firm’s commitment to excellence. In balance with serving our clients’ legal needs, our team is committed to serving the community through their charitable program called Hilbert’s HeroesTM and through local organizations such as the Roswell Rotary Club and Roswell Attorney Project which promotes civility in all matters among legal colleagues.
