also known as Vanessa L. Hammer
I practice exclusively to the area of family law, representing individuals in both litigation and alternative dispute resolution. I have significant experience handling complex financial divorce cases including sophisticated family estate plans, valuation issues, and forensic tracing. I also have experience in handling high conflict contested custody, visitation, and relocation cases in both state and federal court. I have prosecuted and defended matters involving international kidnapping and wrongful retention cases brought under the Hague Convention as well as interstate child custody litigation under the UCCJEA.
I am licensed to practice in Illinois and Texas and in the United States District Court, Northern District of Illinois and Southern District of Texas. I am fluent in Spanish and therefore able to assist Spanish-speaking clients in navigating the judicial process.
I have been selected as an Illinois Super Lawyers Rising Star for 2012 and 2013 and Texas Super Lawyers Rising Star for 2017.
I am a member of the Chicago Bar Association, Illinois State Bar Association (Family Law Section), DuPage County Bar Association, State Bar of Texas (Family Law Section), Houston Bar Association, American Bar Association (Family Law and International Law Sections), and the Hispanic National Bar Association
