WE HELP PEOPLE THROUGH DIFFICULT TIMES, INCLUDING ACCIDENT, BANKRUPTCY, CUSTODY, DIVORCE, AND TRUSTS

Holly Martin gravitated to the kind of law that helps people when they are hurting, which is why she focusses her efforts on helping clients resolve family law, bankruptcy, personal injury, wrongful death, and probate cases. As a family law attorney, Holly counsels clients on her passion of becoming all they can be, learning to deal with new boundaries while healing old wounds and helping their children heal. Bankruptcy has also been near and dear to Holly’s heart, because she knows the heartache of not being able to sleep due to worry about finances, a result of the almost crushing debts she had after law school. Having been involved in accidents and having had her stepfather die due to someone else’s negligence, Holly knows how frustrating insurance companies can be. Accident and personal injury law allow her to help others through such difficult times. For Holly, helping people in such a wide range of practice areas gives great joy since it allows her to help people succeed through difficult times and get their dignity back.

Highly recommend Holly Martin
I recommend Holly Smith Martin. I was injuried in a auto accident and didn't know who to contact but I am glad that I called Holly. She is very helpful, and she explained the steps so I knew what to expect and where we were in the process. I can't say enough great things about how well she took care of me and my case.

holly
Holly Martin was a very understanding person and helped get a huge weight off my family's shoulders. I was in a car accident with my family and my mother and sister only got minor injuries, my dad's left shoulder was disslocated. I thought were going to go through this alone, but Holly made us feel secure and relieved us from our pain. I can't thank her enough and the staff for making my family get through these tough times!

A Caring Counselor
I've interacted with lawyers for more than 40 years in both personal and business situations. Never have I experienced a more compassionate and capable attorney than Holly. She personally identifies with her client's whole person (e.g., immediate needs, direct understanding and experience of issues, emotional status etc.), then quickly focuses on the client's specific goal. Her professionalism coupled with her care for her client is remarkable. My direct experience with Holly relates to two marital annulment cases, one domestic, the other dealing with a respondent in a foreign country. In the domestic case, Holly's grasp of the highly complicated issues associated with consultants' testimony was complete, prompt and effective. Her communication skills enabled the court to quickly understand the complexity of the case. In the case with the foreign respondent, Holly's skill set quickly satisfied each requirement bringing the case to a successful conclusion in court.

Great referral.
As a member of a church staff, oftentimes I would encounter people who were in need of legal help or advice. I never hesitated in sending parishioners to Holly Martin because I believe that she was always fair with them concerning fees, and she would go the extra mile to be helpful. Specifically, she guided an elderly client who had multiple issues into an area of protection (family issues) and financial aid.
