Candace Hammond

Paralegal

Candace was born and raised in Oklahoma before moving to Hewitt, Texas, in 2000 while her children were still young. Zachary and Kaleigh both graduated from Midway where Candace was a very involved volunteer for many of her children's extracurricular activities. Candace remins a devoted Panther even though her children have moved far beyond their high school days now. Her son, Zachary is currently enrolled at Texas Tech completing his Masters in Healthcare Administration, and her daughter, Kaleigh is a junior at OSU studiying to become an occupational therapist. Candace's children are her greatest source of pride and happiness.

Candace joined the team in November 2019. It was the passionate love for her children expressed above and going through her own divorce that convinced her to spend the rest of her life helping others in a similar situation. Candace went back to school after her divorce and graduated from McLennan Community College with a paralegal certificate in 2007. She continued her education after that at Tarleton State University earning a B.B.A. in 2009. After initially starting in the worker’s comp and social security areas of law, Candace finally found a position doing what she really wanted fighting for client's families - just as she had done for her own.

Outside of the office Candace enjoys music, books, "do it yourself" projects and taking in the beauty of Cameron Park.

Candace has said, "I always knew since my experience that I had a heart for other family law clients. I want to help them through what is undoubtedly one of the hardest times of their lives."

The Blanchard & Thomas
“Clients’ Bill of Rights”

We want to earn the right to be your attorneys from now on, not just for the duration of your current legal issue.

  • We treat clients like people and not numbers – the same way we would like to be treated ourselves. Every client is treated with absolute respect and dignity.

  • We build our relationships upon a foundation of total honesty. Absolute honesty allows the client and the attorney to develop trust that will be absolutely critical to success in and out of the courtroom.

  • While the attorney client relationship may not always result in friendship, we believe it should always result in mutual respect. We zealously advocate on our clients’ behalf whether we agree with their choices or not. We do not judge our client’s choices; we simply attempt to help them learn from them, live with them, and overcome them.

  • We make a commitment to communication. We begin and end many of our days communicating with clients. Our clients can count on us to return phone calls and/or e-mail within 24 hours except in emergencies or during announced absences from the office. We want our clients to always know what we know and vice-versa, and overcome them.

  • We play hard, we play fast, and we stick to the game plan. We work with every client to develop a strategy most likely to bring about their success. We work hard to ensure the strategy gives our client every advantage possible and their very best chance at success. We then implement that strategy as quickly and efficiently as possible.

  • We play to win. While we cannot guarantee outcomes in any case, we always do our best to see that our clients come out on top. We want our clients to know without question that their success matters to us more than their payments.

  • We serve at the clients’ pleasure. If for any reason whatsoever the client decides he/she is better off with a different attorney or law firm, we will respectfully and professionally do whatever we can to get the new attorney or law firm up to speed and ready to handle the case. We vow to never object to a client’s request to seek alternative counsel, and we promise to return 100% of any unearned advance payments.
