Who We Are

About Us.

Expertise.

Being investigated or charged can be terrifying and can leave you feeling overwhelmed. We will shoulder the burden for you. We have handled thousands of Texas criminal cases – Let us go to work for you today. The sooner we can get to work on your case, the better the chances for a positive outcome. It is our job to help alleviate the stress and anxiety you may be going through.  Doing nothing early in your case is the worst thing you can do. Let our judgment, guidance, and advice assist you in choosing the right approach in handling your case. Our experience in criminal law: both in criminal defense and in prosecution will ensure you receive the best possible outcome.

Strategy.

We treat every case and client individually.  While the charges may be the same from one client to the next, at The Hamre Law Firm we believe that each case is unique and should be handled on a case by case basis. All too often citizens are thrown into the criminal justice system and set adrift. We believe in the team approach and you will be a key member of that team. We will craft a plan early in the process in close collaboration with you. Whether your case calls for aggressive litigation or a more nuanced mitigation and negotiation, we will work with you and for you. Communication is key to our strategic goals. We believe that you should be informed and encouraged to communicate regularly with our team.

Integrity.

We believe in trust and transparency. With over 20 years of experience as a defense attorney and top-level prosecutor, you can be assured that everything Dan Hamre does on your behalf will be done to the highest ethical standards. We maintain close, quality relationships with our clients built on a foundation of trust and communication. We will treat you with respect and the integrity you deserve. We are committed to transparency, we listen and communicate openly and frequently with our clients. There will  be no surprises, we will explain each step of the process in detail.

Testimonials

Dan was referred to me by a previous lawyer that I knew. When I spoke to him he gave me a lot of comfort and reassurance that everything would work out in my favor since I was falsely accused. The Hamre law firm made me feel very secure, and confident. I knew from the beginning that he was determined and would fight for the best outcome. The Hamre Law Firm got my case dismissed. The law firm was very understanding and patient with regard to my financial status at the time. Furthermore, Mr. Hamre answered all my questions and overall it was the best customer service experience I have obtained hands down. I genuinely recommend this fabulous lawyer that will go above and beyond to seek the best result possible.

Top-Rated Defense Attorneys, Austin, Texas.

At The Hamre Law Firm we know exactly what it takes to get a great result. Often the difference between a good result and an extraordinary result is the ability to demonstrate to the prosecutor that the client “gets it.” The prosecutor handling the case wants to be secure in the belief that the defendant understands the gravity of the situation and has taken measures to ensure that they will not go down this path again.
