PLEASE BEWARE AT ALL COST. She will cost you more harm than good.

Avoid her at all costs. She is completely one-sided and I agree with every negative review here. She does not act in the child’s best interest and consistently favors fathers. Her bias is obvious, and it feels like she has something against women, which raises serious concerns about her ability to be... fair or objective.

Worst Amicus Attorney Ever!

Diane Martinez was appointed Amicus on my case. I provided several concerns to her with several alarming pictures. She did absolutely nothing about it and even actually recommended the other party as a great parent for Primary Custody. Well Five years later my daughter was severely abused by the othe...r party she highly recommended as Primary Custodian, and is now indicted on Child Abuse charges awaiting trial. The physical/emotional abuse my daughter suffered all because this lady only cares about money/politics! Thank God my daughter didn't die or commit suicide!!!!! She should not ever be allowed to be an Amicus!

Lying Bias promotes federal convicted offender

Repeatedly denied an appointment in 3 years only met with me 2 intake and when my lawyer got involved. Child reported assault to the school and parent was federal convicted and Diane still said child should go with that parent, she was catch name calling me in text message we showed the judge and she... said the text messages were fake and tried getting the other person to lie for her and they didn’t show up to testify for her. The child has even said she is ‘cringy’ and doesn’t like her. Diane try to make it sound like they are buddies and she know the child better than her parents. She is great at extorting clients for money and horrible at her job, and is extremely two faced. It’s on record in the court’s transcripts you can check my review creditable and know it’s not exaggerated or slander. This type of behavior needs to be known.

In tune with best interests of children

Diane was the amicus attorney on my case for my children. She listened to the children and truly looked at the facts and represented them beautifully in our case !

She’s Awesome, Agressive, and Empathetic

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
