Kurt R. Hilbert, founder and a Principal Shareholder of Kaufman & Hilbert, P.C. a full service law firm located in Alpharetta, GA, had previously started and ran his own law firm, The Hilbert Law Firm, LLC for 17 years in the heart of Roswell. Enjoying an active practice that involves complex and many times high-profile business, real estate, employment and constitutional matters, Kurt’s motto is that he “does not think outside the box, to him there is no box.” Admitted to practice in all state and most federal courts in Georgia, as well as the United States Supreme Court where is has submitted several Amicus Brief, practicing since 2002. Widely recognized by his peers and the judiciary as a continuing “AV Rated Preeminent” attorney for his knowledge, skills and ethics, he has a “Superb” ranking through Avvo, and has been a Georgia “Superlawyer” for almost ten years running. Awarded the “Best Attorney” in North Fulton County, Kurt has been recognized repeatedly as one of America’s Top 100 best civil defense litigation attorneys.
A double-degree graduate of Northwestern University (Go Big Ten!) with honors in two separate disciplines -- Political Science and Opera Performance, he then did some graduate work at the University of Chicago in political science, ultimately, graduating from Northwestern University School of Law where he spent his final year studying law at the University of Oxford, UK. As a result of his studies, he was later published in the American Journal of International law. Having gratefully represented numerous clients in his years of practice (several of whom are Rotarians), Kurt believes he would not have accomplished his successes if were not for many life mentors throughout the years, including the unrelenting support of his soulmate and wife of 26 years, Jennifer. He is most proud of his not-for-profit work and involvement in the community through Hilbert’s Heroes and of course, through Roswell Rotary.
