Dustyn Codie Martin

Codie represented me in a criminal case where I was charged with multiple felonies. I was looking at 2 life sentences plus a lot of years. I had a public pretender who was scared of the prosecutors. I had heard that Codie was a up and coming attorney who was young brave hard working white man who wo...uld fight for anyone and liked to win for his client, no matter black, white, Mexican and no matter how much money you got. Everyone said he great, works hard, fights for what is right, loves winning, don’t take no trash talk from prosecutor and very smooth in court. I saw Codie in court one day and he was there for somebody else case and I watched him argue for that guy, and I knew right then I had to hire this guy. Codie would not talk to me until my public pretenderwas ok woth it. The three of us sit down, and I explained my case to Codie, and my public pretender said, I got him a good offer of 20 years, he should thank about taking it. Codie looked at him funny, then looked at me n said, do not take that offer or any offer. He told me right there he could win my case. He wanted a $15,000 detainer. I did not have $15,000. I barely had $15. Me being a poor, I didn’t expect Codie to take my case without me paying what he wanted and being good. Codie said, well, I see you’re not getting the representation you deserve, so bring him my weekly checkstub and I will pay him 10% of my check each week until I pay him in full. He said he wasn’t in the business of fixing one problem (my criminal charges) and creating another at the same time (making me go broke). He told me he had two rules, one was to never lie to him about anything. The second was to trust him and don’t talk to nobody else but him. If I followed those rules, he would win my case. We go to a jury trial, and during jury picking, Codie got rid of a white male juror because the prosecutors dad had represented that juror in the past. The judge did not like Codie because he stood up for us African Americans and didn’t play by the good ol white boy system rules, and was the best lawyer I’ve ever seen. Codie is the only white male lawyer I’ve seen in Arkansas that is honest when he says he don’t care what color you are, everyone deserves quality representation. So when Codie got rid of the white man on the jury, the judge called him a backwards racist. Codie isn’t racist against nobody. We continued to with my trial an watching Codie in court was like something you would see on TV. It took the jury 15 minutes, and they came back and found me not guilty on everything. Codie hugged me like I was his brother who had just been so free. When I say the man cares about his clients and is the best lawyer I’ve seen that wasn’t in a movie, I meen it. The jury was let go, and the judge told me I was a free man, and before court was over, Codie told the judge he didn’t appreciate his calling Codie a backwards racists in front of everyone in the courtroom that morning. The judge found Codie in contempt and fined him, but Codie said, well judge I guess you finally get something to that makes you happy. We both know how you wanted this case to turn out, and you didn’t get it. Then he put his arm around my neck, and we walked out of the court. He said, he told me to trust him, and he would win my case. I trust the man 1000%. He is the best, and he don’t care what color you are or how much money you have, he fights for you and never gives up. I am married now, have two kids, and a beautiful wife. I own my own business. I would not be here today if it wasn’t for an honest hard working unbiased attorney named Codie Martin. I owe him everything. Codie was 25-0 in jury trials last I heard. I’d say if you want a lawyer with a good record, you won’t find on that is undefeated like Codie. He is great.

I owe so much to my lawyer Codie Martin. I am more than pleased with how he handled my case. Codie went above and beyond to meet with me on a regular basis. I never had one ounce of fear because he absolutely was by my side every step of the way. He is a man of God and when he takes on a client he fi...ghts for justice to be served. I would recommend Codie Martin to anyone. If you want a lawyer that loves what he does and won't quit until YOu are satisfied then Codie Martin is your man. Thank you codie Martin for believing in me and helping me to get my life back. I could never repay you for what you've done for me.

I could not have asked for a better attorney, Codie Martin is very organized and well prepared in his cases, he gets the job done. Also works very quickly on matters that need immediate attention. Codie is very compassionate towards his clients and will fight for what is fair and right. I hired him ...as a divorce attorney and he has done more than an awesome job!! I would definitely recommend him to anyone who needed a good lawyer!
