Excellent

Glenn was very professional and helpful, as were his staff, Donna and Lynn. My case was dismissed. Thank you for all that you do.

A first (and hopefully last) time as a criminal defendant

As a first-time criminal defendant, I had no experience with criminal court and was too embarrassed to 'ask around' for an attorney to hire. Luckily, my internet search brought me to Mr. Hammond. Though I considered the underlying facts to be close to silly, and the misdemeanor charges to be excessiv...e, Mr. Hammond took my concerns very seriously regarding civil liability (if the complaining party was buoyed by a plea of guilt or 'no contest'). He took my position (of no plea) to the prosecutor's office and secured a diversion agreement that included neither a guilty plea nor nolo contendere. By that agreement, after community service and a simple online course on 'making good decisions,' the prosecutor's office filed - and the court granted - a motion to dismiss the charges. Throughout this short representation, Mr. Hammond (and his staff) responded quickly to any questions I had. He provided a sympathetic ear to my disbelief that the facts warranted the charges, but also ensured that I was fully apprised of the potential for some level of adverse outcome. His flat-rate was reasonable and certainly represented 'good value for the money.' I do not expect to have any such need again, but under the notion of 'you never know,' I have kept his number in my phone. Aside from any future need of mine, I am happy to recommend him to anyone needing such services.

DUI Defendant

IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS GLEN HAMMOND CHANGED MY LIFE!!! He is one of those people that you are extremely fortunate and priviledged to get to know. Everyone makes mistakes. It is nice to have someone help re-route you on a good path and help to bring you out of the darkness. I am from another stat...e and didn't know who to represent me for my DUI charge. I originally contacted a billboard lawyer from a different county to represent me. After I spoke to this lawyer on the phone I got the vibe that he didn't care about me at all, I was just another number to him. There was no personal connection, he didn't care. This billboard lawyer said it would be about 6 months until I would know what my future would hold for me, he said nonchalantly I would possibly have a lot of jail time to serve. I then contacted Glen Hammond to see if he could represent me. I am so very grateful to Glen for meeting with me the same day that I called him. He represented me the very next day at court and was able to alleviate a lot of my anxiety about what my future would hold for me. I wasn't looking at jail anymore, and that alleviated a good portion of my stress. In less than 24 hours Glen Hammond changed my life! Glen is THE BEST attorney in AZ, and I truly believe he was a God send. He CARES immensely about his client on a personal level and wants his client to succeed. He checked in with me throughout the process, when he wasn't obligated to, and made sure I was doing okay. He understands the local Yavapai County Court System, which is important when looking for representation. A thousand times over, I would recommend this lawyer. You are fortunate to be in his care.

Best possible outcome

Attorney Hammond was exceptionally supportive during a very difficult time and succeeded in negotiating a treatment oriented sentence when prison time was very possibly in order.

Excellent and Professional Attorney

Mr. Hammond worked diligently in the duration of my case. Within the first call between Glen and his team, they were very attentive, communicative and gave strong and strategic counsel which helped greatly with my case. He went above and beyond to help with my legal issues. Glen and his team was ther...e if I ever had any questions or concerns. Hammond Law is a professional and honest group with many years of experience that shows within his work. If anyone ever needed legal counsel in the future, I will highly refer them to Glen Hammond.
