Helped a parent that was stressed

My 16yr old daughter had a minor disagreement with a curb which set all the airbags off in my car, causing her to call 911 in a panic. I arrived on the scene to 2 fire trucks, an ambulance and at least 3 police cars. She was already in the ambulance by the time I got there, so to say I was worried ...is an understatement. Long story short, she was ok physically, but the officer on the scene insisted since the airbags went off, a citation of "improper lane usage" HAD to be issued. Monday morning I called Mr Hammels office and spoke with Stacy, who was wonderful, and they offered to help guide me in the right direction. Mr Hammel went to the first court date but couldn't get the case dismissed because he didnt have my accident report (that I didnt even realize the officer fills out for us now) was in my 16yr olds email. He set a trial and we sent him the accident report. About 6 weeks later we showed up to court and everything was dismissed, no questions asked. Mr Hammel was absolutely wonderful and so helpful. I was so stressed and he just breezed in and we breezed out and I literally was like, what just happened. He told me and my daughter to have a good day! Would 100% recommend Mr Hammel to ANYONE with any driving issues, it's definitely his specialty

Experienced and Personal

I was a accused of a class A misdemeanor, my first time dealing with the law in this manner. Ted took the time to understand my concerns and choose the path of lowest risk with best potential outcome. Very knowledgeable yet gives you the personal touch.

Great attorney

I was facing a DUI and had no idea what I was going to do. I had no real knowledge of how the court system works. Luckily I had Ted as my lawyer. It was the best decision I ever made. Ted is a compassionate, hardworking, and straight to the point. If you do what is asked of you, a lot of the stres...s will be alleviated. They got me a favorable outcome and l'm forever grateful.

Great attorney

I received a traffic citation, my first ever. I called Ted and throughout the whole process he was calm and calmed me down. Very reassuring and even enabled my visits and court appearance via zoom because of my disability. His strategy was successful. Whenever I talked with him I felt more at eas...e. Like talking to a good friend with my best outcome being first and foremost. He also has quite the sense of humor. Besides being a great attorney, he's also a truly a good person. I highly recommend Ted no matter what the problem is. You just can't get any better!
