Representing Businesses and their Owners


At Hammerle Finley Law Firm, we have been advising business owners for more than 35 years on every aspect of owning, growing, and terminating a business. We have the advantage of having a small overhead (so no big firm fees) and a big presence (so you have the powerhouse presence when you most need it). Hammerle Finley has helped small, medium, and large businesses achieve their goals. Additionally, our business attorneys work closely with our litigation team when clients require representation in court, mediation, or arbitration. This team oriented approach provides for better representation in all commercial litigation matters.
