I was NOT impressed by this law firm at all. Promised to walk me through everything or told me to call with any questions.. never received calls back, never was able to call on them when I had questions. I honestly had NO CLUE what I even paid for.. would not recommend this lawyer. It’s like they took my money and I spoke to them maybe 2 times.. wouldn’t recommend this lawyer or firm to anyone needing someone on there side, or someone to be there for them if they have questions. Highly disappointed

It was an absolute pleasure working with the Hammer Law Firm. Nicole reassured me that everything was going to be okay, and sure enough, she kept her promise. I recommend The Hammer Law Firm to anyone seeking legal advice or legal help. I can't thank her enough!

Nicole told me what she would get the outcome of my case to be and she got me an even better outcome than she had originally told me.

Con man mark hammer charged me 1200 to represent me which was fine he said 5500 if we was to go to trail. I paid him the 5500 in case we went to trail. However we didn't go to trail because i pled guilty. I ask him and his wife for the 5500 back they said i wouldn't get that back because of there time and they would send me list of expensives which they never did. The 1200 i paid them was for all the continuous that they kept gettn me... Back to trail money they never sent me list of anything just 2000 back of the 5500.I worked hard for that money that they riped me out of all together 6700 just to plea guilty I was con. Be aware you guys

Mark Hammer a Saint Louis Attorney,, is both a theif and a liar. He completely fits the stereotypical shyster lawyer. I hired him in 2016 to try and get a reduction in sentence for my Brother who is serving 2 conservative life sentences for something he did not do. I live way out of State. He quoted me $5,000 to investigate, $12,000 if he thinks he can get him out. After giving him the $17,000 he said he needed $2,000 for an investigator which I immediately sent. That was early 2016, It was the end of 2016 before even talked with my brother, come spring of 2018 he still hadn't done anything, and then tells me they found out, 2 years later, that because of the nature of his cinviction, he is not eligible for a reduction in sentence. Then to try and justify the money they're said they were going to right a letter requesting clemency. My brothers in prison on sex-related charges no Governor in the world's going to give him clemency. I filed a complaint with the Missouri OCDC Office of Chief Disciplinary Counsel complaining that Mark Hammer was not returning $12,000 dollars. In Mark shyster Hammers response he came up with all this bogus list of names , none of which we never even heard of. Again to justify all that money, On the phone he lied straight to my face. Said he had a hundred twenty five hours in. Hadn't filed one paper and every single time he went to talk to my brother in person, which was four times, he told my brother and I that they would be talking to him when they had other business in Jefferson City. But on the phone when I was arguing with him to return my money, He said that he went to Jefferson City specifically to see my brother which was a lie to Bill me more money. Then when I received this response from the OCDC, he claimed that he quoted me $25,000 to work the case at $350 an hour. I would never hire a lawyer for that kind of money it's ridiculous, he's a liar. He also lied to OCDC that I hired him for new evedence to prove innocence but there is no new evedence , what evedence, it was a reduction in sentence , period.... This is a horrible human, and liar and thief. My reply to OCDC will be he is lying which will just be a "he said she said." So,,,,,, don't use this lawyer, he's a shyster. I WILL GLADLY TAKE A LIE DETECTOR TEST TO PROVE I'M TELLING THE TRUTH

Attorney Mark Hammer made my wife and me feel comfortable in our first meeting. His experience with prosecutors and judges helps him to get best outcomes for his clients

My case moved in timely manner and closed as we wanted. Thanks Mr Hammer.

THANK GOD FOR MARK HAMMER! I cannot begin to explain in words how thankful I am that I contacted the Hammer Law Firm when I found myself facing criminal legal charges. These are the important things about my experience that I will pass on: 1) I was treated with complete respect and never once felt any judgement from Mr. Hammer or his staff. I felt like he cared for me and my wife far beyond his fiduciary duty as my legal council. 2) I believe that Mr. Hammer's previous experience as a prosecuting attorney was instrumental in using strategies to ultimately arrive at a very desirable outcome. 3) The cost of my 3 year case was, in my opinion, extremely reasonable. 4) MOST IMPORTANT - There came times over this 3 year process where I had actually given up... especially towards the end. I had resigned to a accepting a plea that I was completely unhappy with simply out of fear of what the alternative could be. Even though I had given up, Mark did not. He kept fighting until, right before setting a trial date, the DA accepted the best case plea that we were hoping for from the very beginning. I shudder to think of what mine and my family's life could be like right now if I had called a different number 3 years ago, and me and my family will always be grateful beyond words for the role that Mark Hammer and The Hammer Law Firm played in our lives.

Very rude and abrasive, didn't take the time to listen, cut me off, etc. Will be taking my business elsewhere.

I was referred to Mr. Hammer by someone else. I called him and he asked me how can he help me. I was trying to tell him the nature of the situation (it's very sensitive information that could potentianlly end her life and others if placed in the wrong hands). He kept cutting m ooe off and not allowing me to finish my sentence. He interrupts me again and says, "I can't take this anymore" with an attitude and asked for her name. I gave the first name, but it had nothing to do with the question I had. His answer to it would have given me the information I needed to proceed with him for criminal defense or another type of attorney. Too bad I didn't get to ask; he hung up on me. I have never had a lawyer hang up on me. He's supposed to be a professional individual, but hangs up on you like a child. I'm already super sensitive about the situation because it's potentially life, death, or prison time for something she is being coerced and forced to do to get their dirty work done. He needs to learn how to L I S T E N !!!! Many people in the same situation are very broken and overwhelmed. Patience is very important and he needs to work on his before hanging up on a potential client.

I have never met a nicer person and honest person like Mark Hammer look I was guilty but by a miracle I called Mark out of the internet.I had to fly to St.louis from Miami Mark met me he was there when I turned myself in at the federal court house he was honest with me told me how it was going to go and it went exactly as he explained I flew home that day.I flew back and again Mark was there again he told me exactly what he hoped would happen and it did I flew home again.Let me tell you if I would have called anyone else I feel in my heart I would still be in federal prison for 15 years.He is the best attorney in St.louis.Thank you Mark for giving me my life back

I couldn't be more pleased with the excellent services provided by Nicole Chiravollatti. She stepped in the scene and handled my case like a boss and got the case resolved fast and with a result I was very happy with. And this was with a prosecutor and judge that are known to be hard to deal with. If you're in a bind and need prompt and professional representation call the team at Hammer Law firm. 5 Stars All day!!

Mr. Hammer is down to earth, doesn't make feel any type of way except his client.
I've never not talked to some one when I called. Him or his secretary are avaiable all the time.
I have his cell phone number incase of an emergency. Flexible payments are available with a down payment. A great criminal defense lawyer. Worth every dime he does not waste anytime!!! Thank you Mr. Hammer for all your work.

We worked with Nicole Chiravollatti about a year ago. I had no experience with the court system and felt overwhelmed and broken. When she met with us she was kind, encouraging and easy to understand. Then she would walk into court as a powerful, intelligent, charming lawyer. The feeling of hope and relief that came from watching our lawyer dominate the entire courtroom with a smile is hard to explain. We are forever grateful for both her kindness and hard work.

Nicole Chiravollatti is excellent. She was very informative and gave us options. She told us what her overall goal was and what the backup plan was. She was able to get my wife’s case dismissed. I would recommend her if you need a lawyer. I want to thank her again for all her work.

I had the pleasure of working with Nicole Chiravollatti and she was so quick and prompt! Not only was she very sweet and fun, but also professional and straight to the point. After just one phone call with Nicole I knew I was in good hands and that everything would be taken care of. If you ever have the privilege or working with Nicole in the future you are incredibly lucky!

Although I was not guilty, the odds were not in my favor.
Mr. Hammer is professional, focused, knowledgeable, experienced and just an all around great person. Mr. Hammer explained how my case would proceed and what to expect. He showed consideration and respect to me and my family during interviews and meetings. He had given realistic outcomes, not promises, of my case and won my case (unanimous NOT GUILTY verdict!) through focused and well-reasoned arguments. My family and I are extremely grateful to have had Mr. Hammer in our corner throughout the legal process.
I highly recommend The Hammer Law Firm!
Thank You Mr. Hammer!!

I have nothing but great things to say about Nicole! She is extremely professional, responds quickly to messages and provides peace of mind that I have never had with any other attorney. She worked a case for me 2 years ago and I have still been able to contact her with questions years later. I am so impressed with how responsive she is as well as the wonderful advice she continues to provide. Once a client, always a client.

Nicole is a great attorney. Smart, strong, and caring at the same time. She knows how to effectively get the job done. She’s incredibly well connected when it comes to the St. Louis Metropolitan area legal system, and is well liked and respected by many judges, not to mentioned revered her peers. I highly recommend Hammer Law Firm because they are highly effective.

We were pulled over for having an out of state plate... we were facing serious felony drug charges with possible prison time.. it was the middle of the night when I found the Hammer Law firm website and clicked on the “help” link , within secs I had a rep with me... they left Mr Hammer a message with a brief summary.. I called the next day and was surprised Mr Hammer directly answered the phone and apologized a few times because he was still at home with his young child.. he said he would reduce charges to fines and we would not have to return .. From that moment on he and Michelle kept their promise with constant communication and reassurance to their hopeful plea... words cannot express the gratitude , no money ,no review nothing can truly say what they can do.. we will always alys be grateful.. the final conclusion was a felony c reduced to fines .. case closed

Nicole is the single best thing that's ever happened to me. It isn't letting me post under my own account so I'm posting under my dad's.

Nicole literally saved my life and did absolutely everything she could for myself and my kids. I honestly don't know what I would have done without her. She worked so hard for me, to get me what was fair and I truly couldn't even begin to thank her enough.

I would absolutely and instantly recommend Nicole to anyone I know and care about. Even old family friends that have become enemies, I would legit be afraid if they hired Nicole.

She has absolutely been the most helpful, compassionate and caring lawyer that I've ever met. Her number #1 priority has always been my best interest. And she fought harder for me than I ever anticipated. I have absolutely been blown away by everything she has done for me.

Nicole, you and everyone at the Hammer Law Firm will always be my very first phone call if anything should come up. I simply cannot thank you enough. You have been my guardian angel and I couldn't ever possibly thank you enough. My very best to you and your family. You really did save my life.

Thank you Nicole. With all my heart! (The rest of my family included as well!)

I couldn't have made a better choice in legal representation! Mark was extremely dedicated and professional. More importantly, he truly knows the law and the ins and outs of the criminal legal system. I hope I never need his services again, but lets just say that I have his phone number committed to memory!

Mark has got to be one of the very best in the business. I mean that with all my heart. He made me feel at ease right away with his thorough explanations and his vast knowledge. I knew instantly that he was the best lawyer to help us. We are especially grateful for his personal touch and kindness. I offer my highest possible recommendation. Thank you again Mark for everything and God bless you.

Mr. Hammer is available 24 hours as the website states. I called him late on a Friday night, and we had another issue a week later. He took care of both issue's promptly, and he was able to get the results that we needed. He is exceptionally friendly, honest and does his job very well. I greatly appreciate all that he has done for us! I highly recommend him, and he is worth every penny. I am very glad that we found and hired him. Thank you Mr. Hammer!

Mark & Nicole are an awesome team to have by your side. They are very compassionate, honest,caring people. The worked forward & backward to get down to the truth. When they says they are there to defend you that is true. No matter what time you call they would always answer or get back to you in a timely manner. I would recommend them if you are looking to someone that is on your side all the way cause that is what GOD has done with this couple! I am glad our case is all over but I do miss seeing this couple as they are like family! Thanks again for all you done for my family! Blessing! Tammy Chatfield

I hired an attorney to help me with my case. Never being in trouble before, I didn't know exactly what to look for. The attorney I hired let my bond be revoked because he didn't inform the courts that I moved (even tho I gave him a month's notice in advance). While I was in jail, my fiancee found Mark Hammer, talked with him, and hired Mark on my behalf. Within a week or so, he had my bond reinstated, and a charge dropped. He kept me well informed on everything that was going on, and made me feel like I wasn't alone. When it was time for trial, Mark fought tooth and nail for me, and made the prosecuting attorney look like an amateur. After closing arguments, it only took the jury a little over an hour to return a not guilty verdict. Mark made me feel comfortable being in that setting. His knowledge and determination on winning is well worth his fees. I would recommend Mark to anyone that is going thru a similar situation!!

Nicole Chiravollatti at The Hammer Law Firm helped me deal with my legal matters and did an incredible job of communicating, setting expectations, and following through on all commitments. I would highly recommend Nicole and The Hammer Law Firm for anyone needing assistance with traffic or similar needs. I was very apprehensive to begin the process but she did an outstanding job of helping me through this overwhelming process. Thank you Nicole!

The Hammer Law Firm is the best! Mark and Nicole are compassionate caring people. They work as a team and are excellent in what they do. You can call them anytime day or night and they are there for you! My son and my family went through 2 1/2 years of hell with other representation. Then I made a call to Mark Hammer very late at night and I knew at that moment that is who I wanted and needed to prove my son case. I can't describe in words how dedicated Mark and Nicole are at defending their clients. I can tell you this if anyone is ever in need of a criminal attorney you should contact Mark and Nicole at the Hammer Law Firm.

Thanks again Mark and Nicole for being there for the Harris Family!
