Review Martin Roth

NOT GUILTY!!!

Posted by GermarlonSat Aug 13 2016

My boyfriend was found NOT GUILTY by a jury. Mr. Roth did a great job at the trial, even though he was found to possessing heroin inside of his shoe while visiting a friend in jail. Mr. Roth got the jury to return not guilty verdict after only 20 minutes of deliberation. He was the only attorney that did not press us to take a plea. He fought and he won!!! Thank You Marty!! He treated us with respect and always returned all of our calls. He was always available at any time, even just to put my mind at ease.
