Virginia Hammerle was very attentive to my unique circumstances. Over the past 5yr the firm has completed several cases for myself and family. I have recommended Hammerle Finely to others and would continue to do so.

Virginia Hammerle is such an amazing woman and lawyer! She took such good care of us in all our estate planning needs. She was able to explain everything in terms that made sense and I could really understand! I left her office feeling confident and cared for - knowing exactly what the plan was! I highly recommend!

I gave one star because zero stars is not available. My wife and I sent a detailed explanation of our needs via Hammerle's web page. On Monday, 8-1-2022, we received a call from an employee, I believe she said her name is Tracy. She did not identify her role, whether she is a paralegal, associate, partner, or adminsitrator. She said she had our document and said we needed to schedule a consultation for $350. She did not explain the purpose of the consultation nor what we would value we would receive for $350. She refused to explain what steps Hammerle would take even though she acknowledged the detailed information we provided. She refused to explain the cost structure if we chose to hire Hammerle to assist us. Without any idea what Hammerle was proposing to do for us, we decidide to think it over. It is unreasonable to demand $350 for a meeting and not know the purpose, outcome, or value of the meeting. My wife knows Virginia Hammerle, we called back later and asked to speak with Virginia. The person who answered our call transferred us to Tracy. Tracy demanded to know why we wanted to speak with Virginia and refused to let us speak to her. On Tuesday morning, I received a voice message from Tracy, stating that Virginia cannot help us with our question. Since we did not tell Tracy what we planned to discuss with Virginia, there is no way Tracy could determine that Virginia could not help us. I shared the voice message with my wife and she said "that does not sound like Virginia, I doubt Tracy even spoke to Virginia" All in all the experience with Hammerle Law was one rude individual named Tracy, a demand that we pay $350 for an undefined purpose to meet with a lawyer, and a refusal by staff to let us speak with anyone else in the firm. The behavior of Hammerle Law was rude and unprofessional. I would stay as far away from Hammerle Law as possible.

Thank you Hammerle Finley Law Firm for helping me through this rough period of finalizing my fathers estate. It was truly a learning experience and I feel for anyone who has to go through this difficult process. However if you find yourself in this situation, I strongly recommend The Hammerle Finley Law Firm. They were extremely knowledgeable and explained everything step by step making you feel like they were the right choice, and the right law firm for us! If you find yourself in need of a Law Firm, look no further they are the ones!

Questions & Answers

How much to do a will?

The cost for a will depends on the complexity of the will and the remaining estate planning.

There was an article in the news paper about a couple marrying, with adult children.both owning home. Could you explain what happens if a spouse dies? Or is the property owned by the other children. What is the law on this

Hammerle Finley Law Firm | Oct 12, 2018

If the couple live in Texas and own their home as community property, and each has children from a former marriage, and one spouse (the "decedent") dies without a will, then the decedent's 1/2 share of the house is divided as follows: 1/2 to the decedent's children (or their descendants equally) and 1/2 to the surviving spouse. In other words, the decedent's children will own 1/4 interest and the surviving spouse will own 3/4 interest in the home. However, that does not meant the children have a right to the use or possession of the house. The surviving spouse has a right to remain in the house as homestead during the surviving spouse's lifetime. If the decedent left a will, then the decedent could leave his or her 1/2 interest in the house to anyone. However, the surviving spouse still has a right to remain in the house as homestead.
