About Michael

Biography

If you are in pain now, there's a chance you could be in pain years later. That’s why it’s important to get a lawyer to guide your through the process to maximize your recovery.

Getting properly diagnosed and treated early on is very important to documenting your injuries. Insurance companies love it when people try to tough it out and treat on their own, then claim the lack of treatment shows little or no injury.

Car Accident 30%

Before becoming a lawyer I worked for my father's law firm as a law clerk on various types of personal injury cases, including auto collisions. Sometimes clients think their injuries will just go away within a short time. But many times these problems linger for years and cause limitations on activities previously enjoyed. How much is the loss of enjoyment of a favorite hobby or activity worth? That loss is part of the damages recovered in a serious injury cases.

"Not only is Mike Hemming one of the best lawyers in the country, he is one of the finest individuals you will ever have the pleasure to meet. I first met Mike when we attended Gerry Spence's Trial Lawyers College together in 2013. As a young attorney myself, Mike took me under his wing like an older brother and didn't hesitate to share his experience with me to help me become a better trial lawyer. What many people may not understand is that in order to be successful, a trial lawyer needs to be an open book; a multidimensional human being so they can relate to the jurors and gain their trust. Mike understands and embodies these principles, and that's why he is one of the best. If you're looking for a personal injury lawyer, call Mike first. If he's not the lawyer for your case, he'll be up-front and let you know. If he is, then you're in luck because you've got absolutely the best - a hardworking, skilled lawyer who actually cares."
