"I wish more people exhibited the humanity you did"Dear Mr. Hisker, I hope this message reaches you in good health. I am not looking for legal services but wanted to reach out to thank you for what you did for that young gentleman, Brandon, as documented on the A&E show. This is my first time ever doing this but I feel you deserve this message. I wish more people exhibited the humanity you did in your defense of this “gentle giant”. Unfortunately, everyday we witness people acting and reacting to others without empathy and understanding.- Fida K.

"Thankful for good attorneys like yourself"
Dear attorney Hisker, I just watched the A&E show, and I am very thankful for good attorneys like yourself. Our system is good only when there is equality in defense, and you provided a great one. Before hearing the jury’s verdict, I almost assumed they’d say “he admitted he punched him, he’s hurt, therefore he is guilty”. I cheered when he was found not guilty and it gave me a moment of pride in our system. I am also so thankful Brandon didn’t fall into the plea trap where innocent individuals plea to lower charges due to the Pressure and overwhelming understanding that our system is unpredictable. I dream of a world where there are great defense attorneys like you for all defendants, and Where the system isn’t biased for convictions, but bias to obtain justice for all the humans that enter the system. As a Christian, I know just saving one is a blessing—so thanks for saving at least one- With great respect and thanks,
