Keeping me in the loop.

Divorce is an ugly word. But sometimes it has to happen.It's a weary feeling,an angry feeling, an unsure feeling.Uncertain of how to do things.I googled, Divorce Lawyer and went through reviews. I decided to go with Martin Attorney's,because they had great reviews and were really close to me.From the... beginning, I was explained how my case might go. Followed by an e-mail recapping what was discussed.I had questions and they were answered professionally and in a timely manner.All in all, I was very pleased and grateful, that they were the ones I chose, to help me through this difficult decision.

Big fees, little results

All in all, I paid this man around $3,000 before deciding to go with another attorney. First, he failed to get divorce paperwork filed before my wife did (we filed on the same day), which meant having to be on the defensive the rest of the time. Then it became an issue of paying his substantial fees ...and travel expenses because of this (I dismissed him from the case before it came to that). I paid $25-50 for every email I sent him, and at least a couple of them went unresponded to. His case manager was rude and disrespectful, and he was also quite disrespectful on his last phone call to me (regarding my dismissal email), and I got charged $82 for that. I spent weeks just sitting with no progress on the divorce and no updates. It was a terrible experience. The attorney I hired to finish the divorce charged a flat fee (no nickel-and-dime surprises), and has already taken action to expedite the process. I do not recommend this attorney or his office.

Great Attorney Who Really Cares!

I was very happy with Mr. Fisher's representation of me during my divorce case. He anticipated what I would be experiencing and helped me prepare for it. He was very knowledgable of all the judges and could advise me based on what the judge assigned to my case would order. He or his assistant respond...ed to my phone calls and emails quickly and both of them seemed to truly care about my case! He immediately notified me anytime he had contact with my ex's attorney; he didn't wait for me to call him. Most of all, he was very aggressive in representing my interests when my ex would not agree to a reasonable property settlement. I would definitely use him again and will strongly recommend him to my friends!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"It is always a pleasure for me to deal with Stephen. I have had several cases with him and I think he does a good job of zealously representing his clients but at the same time he is able to maintain a good working relationship with other attorneys. This actually works to the clients advantage because this helps to resolve the conflict between the clients. After all the person you are in a confrontation with is probably the parent of your children."
