Mr. Hamzeh is the principal of the firm. He has been practicing law for over nineteen years and has a broad range of experience in a multitude of practice areas. He has handled cases from inception through appeal in state and federal courts. Mr. Hamzeh believes strongly in lawsuit prevention and has often counseled clients to
diffuse or settle conflicts prior to having them result in unnecessary litigation. “Most attorneys are happy to exasperate a conflict with the hopes of starting litigation so they can line their pockets with their client’s hard earned money. This self-motivated behavior is unethical and contrary to the client’s best interests. In reality, manyconflicts can be resolved through aggressive, yet reasonable, negotiation. But if your case does require litigation, we aggressively prepare a detailed strategy with the mind set of going to trial. I relish the opportunity to present a case before a judge or jury.“

Mr. Hamzeh has repeatedly devised trial strategies at the outset of cases and produced either favorable settlements or verdicts. Mr. Hamzeh’s practice areas include trusts, conservatorships, guardianships, probate administration and litigation and complex business litigation, consisting of breach of contract, fraud, employment, entertainment, intellectual property and products liability as well as civil rights and personal injury. Mr. Hamzeh views each case as though it were his own and invites his clients to contact him any time they have questions or concerns.
