also known as Jerry Hammond
I concentrate my legal practice in the areas of estate planning and administration, probate litigation, real estate, business law and general civil litigation. I enjoy helping families plan for their future whether the need is for wealth preservation, business succession, or estate administration. I also represents individuals, executors and trustees when disputes arise in the settlement of estates and the administration of trusts.
When issues unfold related to property ownership, creditor rights, and beneficiaries' interests after a family member dies or becomes incapacitated, I guide clients through estate and other probate-related disputes as efficiently and quickly as the process allows.
I am a member of the Firm's Management Committee and am one of eleven owners/ shareholders of the Firm.

"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Jerry since before we became attorneys. I have worked with him on cases and we have been on opposite sides of cases. He is a very, very good attorney with a lot of good sense matched with superior legal knowledge."
