Scott Hulbert focuses his practice on reaching creative business
solutions for clients faced with challenging commercial, construction, and environmental litigation matters. Scott joined Engelman Berger in 2008 after practicing with two of Arizona’s largest firms. He has represented business owners, general contractors, subcontractors, mortgage brokers, mortgage lenders, residential developers, commercial developers, and real estate investors in a variety of actions before federal, state, and administrative courts and agencies. He is active in the firm’s commercial litigation and natural resources practices.

Scott is experienced in all aspects of the litigation process. At each stage of the process, he counsels clients on the best and most cost effective approach to reaching their goals. Although not hesitant to fully contest a matter thorugh the trial stage, Scott recognizes the need to explore other resolution options such as mediation or settlement when the best business solution for a client is something short of trial.
