I was referred to Mark Hammer and Associates when I was rear ended with my children in the car. A few years later, same situation, but a bit more extreme, it happened again and I knew exactly where to go. I was able to rest my mind knowing I was in good hands. They took care of everything and allowed me to not worry. Mr. Hammer is nothing less than fair and honest and upfront. Everyone is professional, friendly, and compassionate. There were never any surprises There was communication to keep me updated as well as when information was needed. I had medical bills in collections that jeopardized my credit and they were quick to deal with those things.. My treatment was pretty emotional and I was able to focus on that and healing without having to worry about the financial mess.
I was skeptical about using an attorney at first and afraid because I couldn't afford it. But I never came out of pocket for any expenses and I know I would not have been able to obtain the results they got for me dealing directly with the insurance companies. This is their profession and they are good at what they do. They are reputable and genuinely work for you. I had no idea what to expect but I can truly say my results were beyond what I could have imagined them to be. It can be a long process, so come with patience and the understanding that they are doing all of the hard work so you don't have to.
I am also a Latina woman with a multiracial family and I never felt that was an issue and I never felt like I was looked at differently. Mark Hammer and Associates is a very diverse work group of legal professionals with a legal responsibility to ensure they're conducting their business appropriately. I never felt that there was any bias or issue. I say this because I feel that it is important to feel like you can walk in with confidence regardless of the color of your skin and receive the help you need like anyone else without prejudice and I know that this is THAT place.
I hope that I never endure being in an accident again as it was painful and emotionally strenuous. However, I now know who my attorneys will be should I need help again. I highly recommend giving Mark Hammer and Associates a call even if its just for a consultation. It is literally worth your time and peace of mind.

(Translated by Google) Very good law firm. I was hit inside my car when someone hit me with a truck. I received compensation for money. And also they always answered my calls.

They speak Spanish well, well. They do not talk like the other lawyers in Seattle who are gringos.

I will always have faith in Marcos Andrés!

Thank you and God bless you.

Muy bueno bufete de abogados. Yo fue golpeado adentro de mi caro cuando alguien me choco con un camión. Recibí compensación de dinero. Y además ellos siempre contestaron mis llamadas.

Ellos hablan español bien, bien. No hablan como los otros abogados en Seattle que son gringos.

Siempre voy a tener fe en Marcos Andrés!!

Gracias y que dios le bendiga.

I worked with this office for a year. They said my case was a slam dunk the entire time. Obviously I wouldn’t have pursued anything if I didn’t know I would win. (Or if I knew the lawyers couldn’t handle it) I was told not to worry that Mark Hammer only takes cases he knows he’ll win. Communication was good, I constantly had associates checking on me and my treatment progress. Then about a year after my accident Mark called and said ‘This case is going to be an uphill battle, is that ok with you?’ I said yes, and he said he’d check with his associates for more info on the case and to see if it was worth them pursuing. Not even 3 min later he called and said they didn’t see a good settlement since there was no fault issued to anyone. When speaking to him he had the information of my accident wrong, even the area of damage to my car even though he was provided with pictures. Heads up, if they have to work for it they’re not going to take on your case. I’m now working with a much better attorney. I wasted an entire year because they said my case was a sure win.

I’m attorney Mark Hammer and I read Mr. Aguilar’s review of me.

I disagree with Mr. Aguilar. We sometimes have to ask a person their immigration status because some different forms need to be filled out depending on the client’s immigration status. This is to protect the client; it never gets reported to anyone else. We make sure of that and we NEVER PROFILE ANYONE.

We get good results for our clients and our record of most of our clients coming from recommendations from former clients shows that. All our staff speak Spanish and many grew up in Latin America (myself included). We go to bat for all our clients, and in fact most are not citizens (in fact many do not have valid immigration status-it makes no difference in a case and we welcome clients from everywhere).

As to the fact that medical bills have to be paid - well an injury claim doesn’t get one out of paying one’s bills but we’ll negotiate to get it so that the bills do not have to be paid until the end of the case. In fact, we are frequently able to work down the amount of the bills so the client owes a less amount to the doctors or hospitals.

I am not permitted to discuss details of the specific case that Mr. Aguilar speaks of - the law forbids me from doing that. I will however say that he is wrong. In every case we work hard to make sure that the client ends up with the most amount possible in their pocket. We never can make everyone happy and rich in every case but we work hard for ALL our clients and our record of satisfied clients speaks louder than any words.

If we can help you, give us a call - we are here to help. I have been a lawyer going on forty years and have an experienced staff. We are here for our clients ALL THE WAY.

Please read all before hiring Mark Hammers law because it could cost you thousands......

Beware - Do not trust Mark Hammer or his team. Make sure you you make your own calls to hospitals, insurances, and other important agencies.

So we met with Mark Hammer some years ago and he worked a case for my parents on a car accident. Right off the back the first question he asked us because we spoke Spanish was what is our legal status. First of all he did not know the specifics about our case, so it did not matter (BTW - all citizens, so he just profiled us). After about an hour I realized that he was not very honest about the process so I decided to not work with him. I chose to work with other layers. He still represented my parents and brother.

About, 2 years later we finally settled in what was a 10 victim case with 3 different insurances. Once my parents were receiving the final payout from Hammers office they showed a ridiculous amount to pay medical expenses (insurance companies already payed it before releasing any funds). I went ahead and called all of my parents clinics, hospital, and chiropractor offices and cofirmed that they were already payed and there were no balances on any medical account related to the accident. My mother called Hammers office and they argued that it was not correct, but after we told them that we confirmed they said they would call us back. We received a call back and they said that we were right and there was mistake. Coincidentally favoring Hammers office in thousands of dollars!! Hire him and he will fight to get you some money but will fight you even harder out of your own! I can only imagine that he got away with this and exploited so many families that trusted him. So hire him, but make sure that you check everything and make sure you hold him accountable to communicate any momement in your case. At the end, you are his boss.

Very rude staff. They got a low settlement for my auto injury case and are now holding my share of the proceeds and refusing to release them in a timely manner. They promised them on a certain date, and when that date arrived, they told me it would take an additional week. When I complained, the staff member handling the case started yelling, as if it was terribly inconvenient and unreasonable that I wanted my money. Please avoid this office like the plague that it is.

I came to this law firm after a difficult crash that left my vehicle useless and me in pain. I brought all the evidence, all the information, and presented every little detail. The case was pretty much win but I needed legal representation. Although they have s come good lawyers, I was left to deal with parts of my case alone and told " your case is closed, you can call them and figure it out yourself" after they took several thousands of my settlement and left the job incomplete. Highly unprofessional, I'll do it all my self next time bc it felt like I did here. They didn't even bother to check the complete file for all three estimates I presented before closing the case, just to try to blame me claiming I didn't give it to them.

Thank you, ladies, for all your attention and hard work on my case. Thanks for explaining to me why this took so long, and also for returning my calls, and for answering all of my questions. You were all so kind to me when I was the most confused, and my family appreciates all that you did for us.

(Translated by Google) Lawyer Hammer complied with what he told me he was going to give me the insurance of the lady who hit me and fixed my car. He didn't charge me anything to solve my car. I think they are very good lawyers. Mrs. Laura attended to me and explained everything and they even helped me to lower my hospital bills, and I was able to pay less so that I could stay longer. My wife was also compensated well and my children. I am very satisfied with the work of that firm and I also recommend it because everyone speaks Spanish and it is easier to communicate.

El abogado Hammer, me cumplió con lo que me dijo que me iba a dar el seguro de la señora que me golpeó y arreglaron mi carro. El no me cobró nada por resolver lo de mi carro. Creo que son unos abogados muy buenos. La señora Laura me atendió y me explicó todo y hasta me ayudaron a que me bajaran las facturas del hospital, y pude pagar menos para que a mi me quedara más. A mi esposa también le compensaron bien y a mis niños. Estoy muy satisfecho con el trabajo de ese bufete y lo recomiendo también porque todos hablan español y es más fácil para comunicarse.

I have hired Mark 3 times and every single time I have been more than satisfied. If I could give him a "10" I would. His staff is very professional and caring, they have gone beyond what their professional duties are and helped me tremendously in getting a fair compensation for my injuries in every case they handled for me. What I appreciated the most is that you don't have to make appointments to see the assistants or the attorney, I could show up anytime when I needed to bring paperwork or had questions and they were always available to see me. I have recommended him to my family and friends and all have been happy with the results. I hope I don't have to hire him ever again only because that means I will have to be in a car accident, and I don't want that! But I am, I will be calling him!

I worked directly with Perla Andrade; she was always responsive and sensitive to my needs. I was struck by a vehicle and I was in physical therapy for a few months. Perla was efficient in expediting my case. I had a great experience with other staff, as well. I had to call the office on numerous occasions and they treated me with kindness, professionalism and respect. I would definitely work with them again!!!

He got my number somehow from my chiropractor, called him and he was rude, talked over me, and made false accusations. I dont even have a case, but this guy is determined to make something out of nothing.

I highly don't recommend this place. after a year of waiting and finishing with the case, I still received many medical bills that have not been paid off and some of them also went to the collection office which I had some bad experiences.
