Takes money then runs

Gave John money after our very nice intake interview.. at the very first court appointment he did nothing but ask for a continuance. It was granted. Outside of the court room he told me the price went up for various reasons. I agreed to make payment arrangements for the difference. I was late on the ...first payment and he withdrew himself from my case entirely taking my full retainer.. when I questioned him about this he said I was scum of the earth... But wait a minute.. never been to jail, never been late before was just out of money from throwing what I that would be all I needed , and he calls me scum?? He is the epitome of scum. Run....

Great attorney who cares about his clients, and gets things done!!

Mr. Martinez represented me on a family law matter and was very attentive to my case and very knowledgeable. He kept me informed at every step. He made me feel glad I hired him to represent me!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
