Truly an attorney at need

Coming from a family of lawyers and judges, I personally know the type of professionalism and knowledge that is needed when searching for an attorney. After visiting two other attorney offices, I was turned down. Better yet, one office, I didn't even get to speak to an attorney but instead a paraleg...al. I was recommended by a family attorney to her law office. Shoneterria opened the conversation as if I could trust her right off the back. She not only was knowledge but she showed sympathy about my situation. She did everything that she could to make sure that I came out of the situation as a win. In which, I did. Don't lose out. I wouldn't know where I would be right now, if it wasn't for her.

Divorce Lawyer

Ms. Martin was very personable, knowledgeable and helpful. I had filed for divorce without success. Ms. Martin took the information I had, told me what else was needed to get the final judgement signed; even though there was some international issues. If I need an attorney in the future, it will be S...honterria Martin.

Lifesaver

I obtained Ms Martin through the Modest Means program in Atlanta GA for advice on my excessive debt. She was observant, knowledgable, easy to talk to, and always available. Ms Martin made my embarrassment of having to file bankruptcy feel like a sense of normalcy. From the explanation of the differen...t chapters to what was going to happen in the process - step by step, she was absolutely Amazing!! She took care of all my concerns and made me feel like a person and not just a check. I appreciate you Ms Martin. You have helped me start a new journey in my life. And for that I am grateful.

Very Knowledgeable and Helpful

I was recommended to Ms.Martin from my previous boss to assist me with completing legitimization paperwork and agreement with my child's father. This agreement included custody, child support, visitation, as well as some restrictions. Ms.Martin was very familiar with the process and how the paperwork... should be. She did not let the attorney get over on the child support amount and the visitation agreement. She kept in constant contact with me and explained every detail through the whole process. I will be using her for my future llegal matters if anything comes up

Simply the Best!

I was having financial problems and needed to consult with an attorney. I was given a list of attorneys by my insurance company and called five of them. Unfortunately, none of them were available to speak with me when I called, so I had to leave a message. Attorney Martin was the first one to ret...urn my phone call and I am so glad she did. She was very patient when listening to me, asked me thorough questions and provided me with options during that first call. To say that I felt relief after speaking with Attorney Martin is an understatement. I decided to file chapter 7 bankruptcy based on Mrs. Martin's advice. Following the initial call and subsequent office visit, Mrs. Martin and I spoke several more times. I have used her services twice so far and I recommend using Attorney Martin with no reservations.
