Great attorney

Denise is a great attorney. She is compassionate and caring. I had outstanding tickets and was unable to renew my driver's license for over a year due to the outrageous fees I owed. She took care of my case in such a timely manner and got the fees reduced to almost half the cost. She took excellen...t care of me and made sure to keep in constant contact to keep me updated on the status of my case.

Child Support/Visitation Rights

Last year I went to Denise Martinez for advice on child support and visitation rights. Denise was very informative and helpful with my concerns. After my free consultation I chose to hire her, and within two weeks my child support case was settled. Denise answered all of my questions and then some, ...I'm still able to contact her via email with a quick response. I highly recommend Denise Martinez, she took all of my worries away and if I needed to hire her again I would.

Disappointed

After an assault I was admitted to the hospital. My sons father filed paperwork while I was in the hospital due to the depression I had from the incident. There is no abuse or neglect and it was obvious that the lawyers could see that I am a fit mother. The father did very little in the first year of... my sons life. Told Neftali R. that his father wasn’t keeping up on hygiene, leaving my son with random people to go out with his friends, and not feeding Carter at decent times. The father also admitted to not taking care of my son properly. The response I got from Neftali was he is a good father. Since that point all decisions were catered to the father. Any complaint the father had was catered to. The father also lied a few times to his lawyer about things that can be proven untrue from txt messages. Once Neftali or Denise spoke with the father and his lawyer they contacted me as if they already deemed it all true. I was talked over, corrected, and disrespected for things that didn’t even happen. It was extremely frustrating to be treated as if I’m a bad person when I was the one emotionally abused and left to cater to my son alone for a year. I wish the lawyers would seek facts first or even ask for proof once they hear complaints from an opposing party. I would suggest not making assumptions or speaking on opinions based on other cases you have handled. I would also suggest that you ensure younger individuals seeking help have another person with them so it gives you less room to treat the client however you please. The service is not just for legal representation but for simple respect for your client. Make them feel safe and well taken care of rather than the enemy.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
