About Us
Davis, Hatley, Haffeman & Tighe, P.C., is a business and litigation law firm located in Great Falls, Montana. It has been in continuous existence since 1912. Originally the firm focused on insurance defense work. While the defense of insureds and insurers remains a primary component of DHHT’s practice, the firm’s work has expanded over the years to include business litigation, representation of national and multi-national corporations in class actions, products liability, employment, environmental, toxic tort and commercial litigation, and the defense of public entities, including the State of Montana and numerous cities and counties, as well as a wide range of transactional work, running the gamut of business formations, farm and ranch sales, commercial leasing, oil and gas, and business consulting. There is also an active estate planning and probate practice.
The firm carries on a state-wide trial practice. The lawyers at DHHT are proud of their reputation in the Montana legal community as attorneys who are always willing to go the distance for their clients. In recent years, DHHT lawyers tried cases to verdicts in federal and state courts sitting not simply in Great Falls, but also in Helena, Missoula, Billings, Kalispell, Bozeman, Havre, Lewistown, Butte, Livingston, Cut Bank, Fort Benton, Wolf Point, Deer Lodge, Shelby and Glasgow. That reputation assures clients of experienced representation through all phases of litigation and instant credibility with the Montana bench and bar.
