Diane Martinez

I sought her out and hired her after her willing to take on my case because she helped my male childhood friend win his child custody case. Her paralegal at the time was very responsive by e-mail and Mrs. Martinez cared about my case. She was aggressive in court and on my side till the end. She had e...mpathy for me and my situation. She may be busy because she is handling the Amicus side of things. She obviously cares about children and cares about justice and what’s fair. She can see through the bs of any oppossing ill-willed party. She saw that I am the Victim and sees the injustice in my situation. Keep up and stay focused in life and she will represent you. You get what you pay for and she isn’t cheap but it is the kind of affordable that makes it possible for you to save if you just keep working hard. Even if you’re depressed and slow down, she will point you in the right direction and connect you during or after your depression. She won’t leave you in the dust. She is a rarity. I recommend her and wish I could have her in all aspects of legal matters in life! Thank you SO MUCH, Mrs. Martinez. You helping me with my case gives me hope for the future and really means a lot to me. -Family Advocacy -Child Amicus/Advocacy -Veteran Supporter -Good Willed in Good Faith -Highly Recommended

Initial meeting went very well and the children were very optimistic that they would get the help needed in order to repair broken relationships with a parent. The initial meeting went great and for the first time in a long time, there was hope that things were moving forward, there would be account...ability and they would have their parent back. Fast forward less than 8 weeks, our children's home was torn upside down and it spiraled from there. The emotional impact and complete lack of faith in "in the best interest of the children" is incredibly unfortunate. The relationship with the other parent is still yet to be repaired and unfortunately, may never be due to the lack of quick reactions rather than appropriate due diligence confirming and verifying "facts" before tearing a home apart.

Diane does not communicate with you despite numerous phone calls and messages. I had hired her for my divorce and I absolutely could not get ahold of her until another professional contacted her and told her they were going to report her to the bar if she didn't meet meet with me. I was to go to cour...t within two weeks and I still hadn't even met her. She wouldn't return my calls or respond to my emails. After I met with her, she essentially ignored me. I paid $2,500 to have her represent me and she didn't.

Diane assurred me should would take care of custody issue after had sole custody of my son for 10 years and got sued by grandparents once the child's father wss arrested for unpaid support. Diane was completely unprepared, absolutely no match for the other attorney, and failed to file an appeal after... the presiding judge made orders although there was not agreement by both parties. Still tied up in court 3 years later as a result of the poor manner Diane handled case initially. Could not get calls returned, did not file documents timely and kept entire retainer after first hearing and firing her to retain someone else. If your not willing to risk your money, custodial situation and rights on Diane, go somewhere else.
