Hilgers Graben is pleased to announce the opening of its Hawaii office. As part of the firm’s ongoing commitment to giving talented attorneys a chance to work in their chosen community, this latest addition to its unique hub-and-spoke office system is led by Senior Counsel Kris Long.

“In addition to Kris’s skill as a litigator, we have been impressed by his superb management of our EDGE review teams, as well as his ability to make some of the most challenging privilege calls in the eDiscovery context,” said head of the firm’s eDiscovery group, Carrie Dolton. “We are looking forward to what Kris and our team can and will accomplish in Honolulu.”

Possessing a wide variety of experience in representing clients in complex matters across the country, Kris is excited to bring that experience to bear in Hawaii.

“My family and I are so thankful for the welcome we have received in Hawaii,” said Long. “Having a presence in Hawaii is critical for purposes of ensuring coverage on a number of projects 24/7 and also demonstrating HG’s support of opportunities that allow its team members to pour into communities that are important to the individual attorneys and the firm at large.”

Hilgers Graben is now licensed and/or admitted in 27 states across the country. “Our firm continues to grow and increase its presence throughout the United States at a very fast pace,” said the firm’s founder and owner Heather Hilgers. “The growth of our firm and the ability to maintain the excellent legal representation we provide are not mutually exclusive. Along with our increased presence across the country, we continue to provide our clients with incomparable legal services – by individuals like Kris – at rates that not many firms with our talent across the country can offer.”
