Attorney Hildebrandt began his legal career as an in-house attorney at Raymond James Financial, a multi-national full service financial services company, handling the company’s complex real estate and contracts matters. Upon leaving Raymond James, Mr. Hildebrandt ran a small real estate investment and title company in South Florida. While at this company, Attorney Hildebrandt realized that he wanted to start his own firm but, in order to do so, he needed to cultivate courtroom experience so he became an Assistant State Attorney for the 13th Judicial Circuit where he gained extensive litigation and trial experience prosecuting both misdemeanor and felony cases.
While working in these previous jobs, Mr. Hildebrandt has had to aggressively pursue the interests of the State of Florida in litigation and the rights of companies during the negotiating or writing of any deal and he has shown his ability to soundly represent parties in high level transactions. He has a wealth of contract, negotiating, transactional, and trial experience. All of these experiences allow Attorney Hildebrandt to provide a unique perspective to his client’s situations and have helped the Hildebrandt Law Firm grow into the firm it is today.
