Handelman, Scott F.

Dedicated to the Protection of Your Rights

At The Hammer Law Firm, we believe strongly that every person accused of a crime has a right to a zealous defense. At our law office, we represent people of every race, gender, age and religion.

People come to our firm because we are known for our dedication to clients and commitment to legal excellence. We are committed to providing quality legal representation that is focused on obtaining results and delivering personal service.

Our Approach

At our firm, we are innovative and results-oriented. We do not limit ourselves to one single approach or one single philosophy.

When a case requires aggressive action, we are aggressive. When a case requires negotiation, we work to negotiate a beneficial outcome. Through decisive and strategic action, we strive to achieve the best possible results that protect our client's rights, record and freedom.

Our Experience

Prior to becoming a criminal defense lawyer, founding attorney, Mark A. Hammer, spent more than a decade as a prosecutor, and taught trial advocacy and criminal procedure to police and prosecutors from Seattle to South Carolina. We believe strongly that Mr. Hammer's experience as a prosecutor provides each client we serve with a decided advantage when it comes to presenting a criminal defense in state or federal courts. Knowing how law enforcement officers and prosecutors assemble their case and understanding their motivations can be vital when the time comes to negotiate a plea or push for a full jury trial.

Our Practice

The Hammer Law Firm places an emphasis on complex criminal charges, including federal criminal charges, white collar crimes, violent crimes, felony drug charges, gang-related crimes, weapons offenses and sex crimes. We also offer experienced representation on behalf of clients charged with a DUI/DWI, theft, domestic violence or drug possession charges.
