Hubbart: The Reaction
I have received a huge outpouring of support for Phil: blog comments, Facebook posts, emails, and phone calls from former and present assistant PDs, former law clerks, and a lot of lawyers. All of them from the heart and worth more than some piece of silverware with an inscription. The love and respect comes from everyone who worked with him.
Phillip A. Hubbart
I became a criminal lawyer on the corner of Bird Road and Dixie Highway on November 3, 1970. I had just passed the bar exam and was driving downtown to a job interview. I didn’t have any great prospects and knew little about Miami law firms or even the practice of law, but hope springs eternal and it blossomed in this mundane intersection. It was election day and Phil Hubbart was standing on a small island that is no longer there, holding up a campaign sign while waving at cars, seeking votes for public defender.
