Mike founded the firm in 1991 as a way to have more time to play golf.
It has not improved his score. Before beginning Hammond Law Group, Mike
served as an associate at Benjamin, Yocum, and Heather handling civil
trial work. When not working, Mike likes to spend time with his two
children Ben and Kelsey. Ben graduated from high school this spring and
will attend Purdue University
in the fall majoring in Chemistry. Kelsey is a junior in high school and
plays basketball and is involved in art and fashion design. She is
participating in an art program this summer at
Fordham University in
New York City.
Mike enjoys all types of sports and regularly plays on basketball and
softball teams. (What used to be a hone run is now a double and what
used to be a double is a close play at first) He also enjoys golf and
ice cream. From 2000 until 2005, Mike coached a girls select basketball
team, the Ice Angels and during that time, they won over 95% of their
games, won 1 national tournament and 2 international tournaments, one in
London, England, and the other in San Marino, Italy. They also won over 25 other
regional and local tournaments and played throughout the U.S., even making two trips to Hawaii. Mike and his brother Robert (the
younger not as good looking one) attend spring training baseball games
in Florida each spring. Mike
is an avid reader, and usually reads 1-2 books per week. His favorite
works of fiction include Cosmic Banditos, Missing Links, Catcher in the Rye, and Bright Lights, Big City.

Mike likes to travel for both business and pleasure. He has recently
traveled internationally to Toronto,
Manila,

lot domestically primarily to meet with clients. He frequently meets
with clients in Atlanta,
