I WASN'T HAPPY!! BAD EXPERIENCE WITH HIM,LOOK FOR SOMEONE ELSE !

He didnt even show up for court like he said he would. He sent a guy who stunk like cigarettes to represent me. I should have had a court appointed attorney. I dont feel he did much for me that I couldn't have gotten from a court appt. Terrible service. Ill never endorse his services to my friends or... clients.

Dedicated and results oriented

WOW! I am a free man. Without Martin's help I would have spent the better part of my life in prison. He and the rest of the legal team were great to work with, easy to commuicate and worth every penny. They are not cheap but when your life is at stake you cant pinch pennies.

professional - great staff

Mr. Burzynski has represented me on several matters. In both instances, I feel that he knew the law fully and chose the most rational appproach to solving the matters in the best possible way. I was most pleased with the outcome, considering the seriousness of the situations. He has excellent conn...ections in Sarasota, and that really can make all the difference.

Very, very dissatisfied with Martin Burzynski.

I would expect any attorney with a reasonable amount of intelligence and several years experience in his field to try to achieve for his client the best possible outcome in his or her case. Selecting this lawyer, however, turned out to be one of the worst decisions I've ever made, one which may bu...rden me with problems long into the future. My mistake was assuming that Burzynski would do what statutory law requires of any attorney; that is, to put forth his best effort -- repeat: effort -- on his client's behalf. That's what I paid Burzynski to do. After all was said (or not at all said) and done in my case, however, it became crystal clear to me that Burzynski had put little or no effort in developing a defense for me. This was explained to me later by attorneys at two different law firms who specialized in the same field of law as Burzynski. These two other attorneys, after reading my case file, shook their heads in dismay, explaining to me in detail why they felt my case, if its elements had been examined and acted on by Burzynski and then made apparent to all concerned, would have been an easy win; even more likely, they said, such plain and simple efforts would have caused the prosecution to quickly abandon the case. Remember, attorneys such as Burzynski cash your check before they've done anything except convince you that hiring them will be the best decision you could possibly make. Promises, promises. Afterwards, with Burzynski: no communications past a terse, "I know what I'm doing," which turned out to be nothing at all, and finally, the worst conceivable outcome.
