A couple will continue a Grand Junction law practice under a new name — Hand Law.

Amy Hand and husband Mark Hand will operate the practice from the same location at 725 Rood Ave.

The new name follows the retirement of Tom LaCroix from LaCroix & Hand, the law firm LaCroix founded 45 years ago.

Amy and Mark Hand bring to the practice a total of more than 50 years of legal experience. They both received law degrees from Drake University. Mark Hand worked for nearly 20 years for the Mesa County Attorney’s Office and 21st Judicial District Attorney’s Office.

The Hands offer services in a variety of practice areas, including adoptions and divorces; criminal defense, including cases involving driving under the influence and traffic violations; and estate planning and wills.

“We are both looking forward to the upcoming year and establishing our new name in the community,” Amy Hand said. “Our primary focus continues to be on building our local reputation by providing thorough and personalized legal representation. Growth is inevitable for those who truly care about their clients’ success.”

The new name comes with a new business logo that includes three Roman columns. Each column represents a core value for the firm in combining experience and integrity to obtain positive results for clients.
