Excellent Attorney Who Cares!! - Professional - Knowledgeable and Reasonable Fees

Louis Hamer is the consummate professional. He took the time to fully understand my situation at a time of extreme stress. He successfully negotiated a fair and reasonable settlement and he did this in a way that did not permanently damage my relationship with the opposing party. His understanding of... the law and how it applied to my situation was extremely impressive. Most importantly Mr. Hamer charged a very reasonable fee as opposed to the exorbitant fees that most attorneys charge.

Health care lawyer | Feb 07

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Dr. Hamer is both a phenomenal medical doctor and an outstanding attorney. He is one of the few to attain the lofty level of being accomplished in both professions. His credentials speak almost as loudly as the quality of his work. I know him best as an attorney. The way he zealously represents his clients by going the extra mile in researching and preparing his arguments is inspirational. I would hire him to represent me if the need arose. If he were opposing counsel, I would know that if I did not bring my "A" game, I would not stand a chance. Because of his ability to learn quickly and grasp difficult concepts combined with a strong work ethic, he deserves and gets my highest recommendation."

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
