Dickinson Wright PLLC is pleased to announce that Attorney Michael C. Hammer has been named a “2018 Leader in the Law” by Michigan Lawyers Weekly.
Mr. Hammer is a Member of the firm’s Management Group and is based in the firm’s Ann Arbor office. His clients rely on him to provide sound business advice across a broad range of areas, including outside general counsel services, contract negotiations and commercial disputes, financial restructurings, bankruptcy, distressed acquisitions and sales, and wealth-protection solutions. His broad experience ranges from negotiating contracts relating to electric and autonomous vehicle manufacturers and litigating automotive disputes (stop-ship cases, termination claims, and tooling and warranty disputes) to counseling, negotiating and litigating rights and interests for all types of businesses including mining, real estate, oil and gas, telecommunications, gaming and health care.
As a member of the firm’s Management Group, he oversaw the firm’s lateral partner recruitment for the last decade. Under Mr. Hammer’s guidance, the firm has hired over 250 lateral partners and has developed a talent for identifying opportunities in new markets and identifying lawyers that will not only complement, but strengthen the firm’s legal service offerings.
Mr. Hammer is an immediate past Board Member of the National Federal Bar Association’s Bankruptcy Law Section; a Mediator with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Eastern District of Michigan; and past Co-Chair of the Federal Bar Association’s Bankruptcy Section, Eastern District of Michigan. He is recognized as a leader in his field by Michigan Super Lawyers, Best Lawyers in America, and DBusiness Top Lawyers.
Mr. Hammer received his B.A. from the University of Michigan and his J.D. from the University of Pittsburgh School of Law.
Each year, Michigan Lawyers Weekly selects 30 lawyers to honor as “Leaders in the Law”. “Leaders in the Law” are lawyers who exemplify the noble tradition of the legal profession, are passionate and active on behalf of clients and the community, have a record of success in the legal profession, and have a record of achievements that display a strength of character and ability to be a leader in the Michigan legal community. The “2018 Leaders in the Law” will be honored at an annual luncheon and awards ceremony on April 5, 2018 at the Troy Marriott.
