Exceptional Legal Help

I highly recommend attorney David R. Martin for anyone needing expert legal assistance. From the start, I was impressed by his timeliness and professionalism. He handled my case efficiently, keeping me informed every step of the way. His charges are also fair, which was a big relief. I’d also like t...o give special recognition to Alejandra Hernandez, the paralegal who assisted throughout the process. She was incredibly diligent, knowledgeable, and always ready to answer my questions with clear explanations. Thanks to David R. Martin and his team, my Harrisonburg, VA ticket was dismissed, saving me from a potential insurance rate hike and preventing points from being added to my record. If you're looking for a reliable and professional traffic attorney, I strongly recommend David R. Martin.

Great private attorney and appointed public defender

I have been represented by David Martin in the past as a private attorney and recently as a public defender for a misdemeanor traffic case. He is a very talented lawyer and will be always be quick to answer inquiries in a very prompt manner. Every personal experience I have had with him has been in...credibly positive and I am always satisfied with the case resolution. He possesses a great rapport with the prosecution team and judges which will create a fair atmosphere. Mr. Martin is also very honest and personable which develops a great attorney client relationship and confidence in his abilities. As my case continued, I saved up enough funds to retain private representation and asked Mr. Martin if he thought it was necessary, but he assured me that he would fight equally as hard for his client whether retained privately or appointed by the court. I trusted him and continued with him as my public defender which resulted in the case not being prosecuted due to his effective strategy. I was both incredibly pleased and relieved with the result. If you can afford an attorney, his private lawyer fees and retainers are very reasonable. As an appointed public defender, you can expect the same professionality, exceptional representation, and a positive case resolution. I recommend David Martin and I am happy to see he now has his own personal law firm, he definitely earned it.

Great job!

Mr. Martin got my son's reckless driving charge reduced to a $50 fine. These results were better than I was hoping for. He did a great job and I am very pleased with the results. I highly recommend him!

The Best lawyer in the Shenandoah Valley

Mr. Martin helped me out of a dire and unhopeful circumstance. He believed me when there were many people who did not believe me. In the most unlikely circumstances, he got me acquitted, and continues to help me get my life back on track. If it wasn’t for him, my life would still be a train wreck. Bu...t, because of Mr. Martin, I now have a future again and I am forever grateful for him.
