I have practiced law in Snohomish County for 36 years. I have argued and tried hundreds of motions and trials before more than 30 different Snohomish County Superior Court judges and commissioners.
I have often not agreed politically with every judge, nor have I had anything in common with many of them except for being an attorney. It is well known that Judge David Hulbert and I do not share the same politics or ideology. On these matters it appears that we disagree on many things.
However, I have tried numerous cases and argued many motions before Judge Hulbert involving matters which affect our citizens and institutions in the way they live and operate. Some of these cases have been factually intense and others have been both complex factually and legally. In my experience before Judge Hulbert he has demonstrated not only a sound legal mind, but he has always been fair and even-tempered and conducts his trials in a polite and courteous way, showing respect for all parties.
I, and many of my civil trial colleagues, believe strongly that Judge Hulbert should be retained.
