Samuel D. "Sam"

Hauke

• Associate

I’ve always been the kind of person who embraces challenges head-on, viewing them as opportunities for growth. I bring that mindset to appellate, employment and general litigation matters, asking the right questions early, focusing on the client’s goals and balancing cost, timing and complexity to chart an efficient path forward. Whether supporting broader litigation strategies or delivering targeted research and drafting, my command of Michigan’s procedural rules, rapid synthesis of information and goal-oriented approach help drive clear, practical results.

Sam Hauke focuses his practice on complex litigation, employment matters and appellate advocacy, with experience supporting cases presented before the Michigan Supreme Court. Guided by deep curiosity and a disciplined work ethic, he begins each matter by gathering context, identifying pressure points and aligning his strategy with the client’s broader objectives. This front-end diligence allows him to anticipate challenges, develop creative legal theories and craft persuasive, research-driven arguments that resonate with courts and opposing counsel.
