"Hubert is a real pleasure to work with, and has outstanding experience in Legal, negotiation, leadership. Proactive, energetic and perfectly organized. Brilliant Legal counsel . Has an easiness to build interpersonal relations with others. He had vision to see the benefits and the passion to turn that into measurable results for K2. Hubert always maintains very good relation with co-workers and clients. Experiencing his quick and sharp mind at the workplace is most remarkable."
"Hubert is very simply, a dream come true with regards to how a General Counsel positions himself within the organization. He's absolutely amazing & I'm proud to be working with such a talented and knowledgeable gentleman. I respect his design skills, his creative uniqueness and his positive energy displayed in everything he touches personally & professionally. He's not a yes man & doesn't need to be; he understands the "now" & "where we're heading" elements. His contributions to the High-tech community have been tremendous and will only grow in importance - glad to know & work with Hubert!"
