Stearns & Hammer | Criminal Defense in Bowling Green, OH (h1)
Stearns & Hammer maintains offices at 112 East Oak Street in Bowling Green, Ohio, and 119 East Broadway Street in North Baltimore, Ohio, serving clients throughout Wood County and the surrounding Perrysburg and Findlay areas. The Bowling Green office can be reached at 419-352-1581, and the North Baltimore office at 419-257-3121. The firm’s six-attorney team, led by James A. Hammer, brings decades of combined experience across a multi-practice firm that also handles family law, bankruptcy, and estate planning alongside its criminal work.
On the criminal side, the firm defends clients against OVI charges, traffic violations, and a range of matters from minor infractions to more serious criminal charges. Attorneys describe their role as staying with a client from the initial investigation through trial and any appeals, building a strategic defense at each stage rather than treating the case as resolved once charges are filed. That continuity reflects the firm’s broader emphasis on personalized, compassionate representation rooted in its long-standing presence in Wood County.
Stearns & Hammer holds membership in both the Ohio State Bar Association and the Wood County Bar Association, credentials that reflect its standing as an established, community-rooted general practice firm handling criminal defense alongside its broader legal services in northwest Ohio.
