Shouldn't have waited so long!
After years of trying to get a former business partner to live up to his end of a contract, I knew my time was running out. I didn't want the hassle and expense of going to court, but it seemed like I had no choice. Don came highly recommended, so I hired him to file suit. But when the other part...
"I am asked about a well qualified criminal defense attorney to assist people when an encounter with law enforcement occurs. I am a big believer in avoiding every consideration in driving a motor vehicle after consuming excessive alcohol, especially knowing that Uber and Lyft options are so readily available nowadays. Nevertheless, mistakes are made, and I firmly believe that drunk driving arrests need to be considered for prosecution, but I also firmly believe that each person should have an attorney who is an expert in this area to evaluate their circumstances and confirm that the correct laws are being enforced and that legal rights are being protected. Attorney Hammond has attended extensive training in alcohol screening analysis and court procedures that pertain to allegations of DUI. Therefore, as a societal norm, we all discourage DUI, but if an arrest occurs, he is the best attorney to assist you."
"Don is excellent when it comes to anything involving DUIs. He understands the science, knows how to cross-examine police officers and will zealously represent any client through this process is court."
"I endorse this lawyer. Don Hammond understand DUI law backwards and forwards. He routinely out maneuvers the prosecutors in this field. I would not hesitate to refer someone arrested for DUI to Don for a robust defense."
"I have referred several clients to Don and they have all been thrilled with the results. Unlike many of his peers, Don has been trained to know the requirements of an arrest and is able to utilize that knowledge to protect his clients. Highly recommend."
"Since we attended law school at USC Gould, Donald Hammond has been dedicated to the constitutional rights of those accused of crimes. At USC, he served on the board of the Post Conviction Justice Project. Since that time, he has represented a number of clients who were overcharged or wrongfully charged for crimes, and helped them get justice. He is aggressive for his clients, and does not give up. He knows the system very well."
