Harlan
re-joined Hammond Law Group in January 2003 as a principal to open its
San Francisco office. Harlan worked in Ohio for our firm in the early
90's, but returned home to California to work in civil litigation. He
specialized in psychotherapy malpractice. As principal in charge of the
firm's West Coast Office, Harlan now offers the firm's business
immigration law services to its many new and existing regionally located
clients.
Harlan is married and has two young children, a girl, Ariela, born in
1999, and a boy, born on 01-01-01. The couple was tempted to name this
second child bino boy in honor of the binary code, or just plain Owen,
which name-wise, is pretty close to 0-one. The couple settled, instead,
on Elon.
When not working at law, Harlan is a part-time practitioner of the
ancient art of making flamework glass beads. To his delight, among
Ariela and Elon's first utterings was the word bead. Beer was another of
the infant's first words, attesting to either the ease with which young
children pronounce one syllable words starting with hard consonants, or
the prevalence of yummy tasting microbrewed beers on the West Coast. The
word lawyer, understandably, never had the same infantile appeal.
Harlan has lived and traveled abroad extensively, including study in
France, Italy, Berlin, Guatemala, and visits to former East Block
countries, as well as Japan, Ecuador, and Southeast Asia.
