Posted by anonymous | June 27, 2017 | Hired Attorney

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Decades of experience and laser focused on key matters - Roswell, Alpharetta, Atlanta, Cobb and Cherokee Counties

Hired Martin on two separate occasions regarding family law matters - divorce and child custody matter. The initial matter went extremely well and both parties found a workable solution. Unfortunately, sometime after resolving initial matter, I had to re-engage Martin regarding an adjustment in custo...dy arrangements. And consistently provided efficient and sage advice on all matters. I strongly recommend. One must also consider he works diligently and efficiently with his support team. Thus, his fees are reasonable and holistically worth every penny.

An anchor in a Storm

Martin without a doubt is the most impressive attorney that I have ever met. I separated from the military several years back, and had a very difficult time adjusting to civilian life. I had issues with DUI, reckless driving and speeding. Martin not only helped me with my legal matters but complet...ely eliminated them. Not to say I wasn't accountable for my actions, but I was represented in such a a way that I felt confident leaving the courtroom with my head held high. I have turned to Martin several times since my initial consult and he has made me feel as if I am his only client. Everyone in his office was more than helpful in my time of trouble. I would recommend Martin, and anyone at Charlton & Glover, for all of your legal needs.

Not happy at all

After paying a 10k retainer for my divorce, this attorney did nothing for me. I caught him in several lies and eventually had to fire him. I couldnt help but to think that somehow this was my fault, because, after all, HE is the legal professional, and knows what he is doing. Right? Wrong! ...I picked up my "file" from his office and took it to my new attorney. She said, "This is it???? Where is everything???" I had no idea how bad it was until I saw my new attorney go to work. She handled my case in a matter of WEEKS, not months or years, and earned every penny of her retainer. She actually got me more than what I thought I would get. After mediation, the opposing counsel even remarked that this attorney did absolutely nothing for me. I think it is only fair to end this review on a positive note. This attorney did refund a small amount of my money after I complained. Maybe he knew deep down that he fell short.

Great Criminal Defense Attorney

Martin handled a criminal defense case for one of my relatives. He was very professional, knew his way around the courts, and we got a very good result. I was extremely pleased with his professionalism, and the courtesy that he showed to us during this process. I would highly recommend him!!
