I highly recommend Mr Hamman for legal needs
My mother used Mr Hamman for legal representation, and he helped our family tremendously. Mr Hamman is an exceptional attorney, and a very kind, compassionate, and caring man. I highly recommend him for all legal needs.

Super Awesome attorney
I have known Mr Hamman for over 35 years as a friend and schoolmate, but never needed an attorney for anything until recently. When I finally needed one, he was there for me. Leif gave me excellent advice that not only helped me out, but gave me the advantage to win my case better than I even expected. I very, very highly recommend Leif Hamman and his vast legal knowledge when looking for an attorney.
