Alejandro Martinez

If anyone is interested in retaining an attorney I highly recommend Mr. Alejandro Martinez, with Martinez and LePendu Attorneys at Law. As reflected in my star rating. Mr. Martinez was able to return a dismissal of charges in my defense versus the State of Texas. Anything otherwise possibly could... have resulted in a 90-180 day drivers license suspension, hefty fines and fees and / or incarceration. Alejandro's preparedness on legal policy and procedure has its foundation in SMU Law. His experience with the DFW area combined with doing business in the Hill Country region while all the while being from San Antonio gives Mr. Martinez an advantage over most competitors. Alejandro's understanding of and appreciation for his craft assists in relating and connecting with his clients. Which in turn helps when representing them in judicial affairs. Vividly, I remember the day of having received an advertisement flyer in the mail and seeing Mr. Martinez there on behalf of his law firm. I read further through Alejandro's message inscribed on the material and thought to myself, "I need to contact Alejandro immediately." I am not sure if it was Bella's beauty or if it was just seeing Alejandro there wearing business casual attire, a hearty smile, and not in a typical pinstripe or three piece suit as most attorneys would usually opt for, especially on marketing materials. Either way, Alejandro stood out as someone whom I could trust with my legal affairs. He worked tirelessly to represent me and obtain the fortunate outcome of a dismissal on all charges versus the State of Texas. Alejandro, if you happen to read this review personally, again thanks and all the best.

Alejandro was a blessing for me!

Alejandro was a true blessing for me! He started working on my case immediately the first day we spoke. I called 8 attorneys and he is the only one that answered directly and only three of the others even returned my call. He knew exactly what to do for my case and was able to get it dismissed at the... first court appearance! I was so lucky to find him and HIGHLY RECOMMEND him! In addition he didn’t take advantage of me and charged me appropriately for his fee. Amazing attorney!

Thanks to a good lawyer

First I would like to say thank you again for what you were able to do for me! I had a DWI with a gun charge, Alejandro argued a minimal probation for me and a dismiss on the gun charge.. He is very knowledgeable and easy to talk with. I would recommend his services in the event you need an atto...rney.

Posted by J | December 05, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Peace of mind

Because of old traffic tickets my license was not able to be renewed. Eventually the fees snowballed as I was out of work and the courts would not allow me to perform community service to pay off the tickets. I found myself in a vicious cycle being arrested for driving to and from work while the fees... continued to grow and more fees were added. Recently Alejandro was assigned to my case as a court appointed attorney. His previous history as a prosecutor provided me with peace of mind, knowing that he has the knowledge and experience to handle my case effectively. After speaking with him, I felt empowered and truly believe that this issue will be behind me very soon. I would recommend Alejandro to anyone that needs a great attorney that will invest his time into your case and make you feel like a real person, rather than a number or a dollar sign.
