Poor at communications

I was never involved in the criminal justice system before and was counting on Martina to guide me. She failed miserably. Extremely poor communications on numerous occasions where I was scheduled for court the next day and still did not know if what to do as she did not call or email. I had to mak...e numerus phone calls and emails to her office to get an answer. She also ignored my emails when the court sent me notices and I forwarded the notices to her asking what to do, My impression is that her method of operation is to take my money and dispose of the case as quickly as possible despite what was in my best interest.

Martina delivers

I hired martina after other attorneys failed to follow through with my case. She was always there to take my calls an come see me. But most important delivered results in my case. Couldn't be more satisfied with the outcome.

Consultation

Ms. Hedvicek got back to me right away and I was pleased with her response. She is knowledgeable and professional. She showed patience and compassion. She was recommended by several people who have availed themselves of her expertise in the past.

If you want the best, you have found her with Martina Hedvicek!!!

I hired Ms. Hedvicek for criminal defense work after getting no results with another local, hired attorney. I couldn't be more pleased with her representation of me. Ms. Hedvicek went above and beyond in her representation of me and personalized my case rather then trying to just get my case reso...lved and off her case load. She researched my case, kept me up to date on progress being made, she accepted countless phone calls to keep me informed, made frequent and numerous trips to the jail to consult with me and ultimately was not willing to just "settle" for what the State had offered me, which is exactly what my previous attorney had advised me to do. Ms. Hedvicek was able and willing to look "outside the box" in handling my specific case to obtain me a more favorable outcome in the adjudication of my case. Ms. Hedvicek is personable and genuinely cares about her clients and their specific cases. Her attention to detail and ability to spontaneously recall information is astounding. She was organized and prepared for every court appearance. In my specific case when a continuance was necessary, she ensured I received a date that was not set too far off on the court's over-loaded docket, which means a lot in this county when you are being held in jail with no bond. I know without a doubt I would not be enjoying my freedom today without the outstanding representation of Ms. Hedvicek and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for an experienced attorney who not only takes pride in the quality of her representation but who is looking for a lawyer who will fight for you to achieve the results you so desire.
