If you are looking for an excellent Defense Attorney, do not look any further. Matt went above and beyond as my attorney in a Domestic Violence case. My fiance and I had to hire Defense Attornies for our case and I wish I could have hired Matt for both of us. He was always available to answer questions I had about the case and upcoming hearings. When my fiance had to appear at the Gilpin Courthouse and his attorney was not able to make it, Matt recognized him, and spoke to the court on his behalf. He not only reassured me, but was able to relieve my fiance's anxiety throughout this stressful process. Matt is not afraid to go to trial and I would not want any other attorney to speak on my behalf in court. Hire Matt if you want the most favorable outcome for your case.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Matthew Martin!!!! He was recommended by a family friend when my son was falsely accused of a serious crime. I have retained other lawyers before for different matters, and never have I had a good experience with one until Matt. In fact, this is the first time I have ever written a review about a service I have had but Matt is an EXCEPTIONAL attorney and I can't say enough good about him. He handled our case with professionalism, knowledge, and got us results that I am so grateful to him for. I am so grateful for his representation on our case, a life saver!!! He actually answers his own phone every time personally and communicates everything to you. He is up front about costs and options and I am very pleased with his work ethic and knowledge. Matthew Martin gets my highest ratings and I would recommend him to any of my friends and family. A+++++++++++++++
IF YOU'VE BEEN CHARGED WITH A CRIME, CALL MATT MARTIN. A SPECIALIST IN CRIMINAL DEFENSE AND DUI.I'M AN EXPERIENCED DEFENSE ATTORNEY WHO CAN SUCCESSFULLY DEFEND YOU FROM FALSE ALLEGATIONS.I HAVE BEEN HANDLING DUI CASES FOR 18 YEARS AND HAVE THE ABILITY TO WIN YOUR CASE!
Â
I have wanted to be a trial attorney since law school when I competed in moot court and loved arguing against others. Now, when my clients are faced with very serious consequences I rely upon my 26 years of criminal law experience in defending them to the best of my ability. I am ultra-competitive and will always be the most prepared attorney in the courtroom. That's what you need in an effective defense attorney.   Â

I cannot say enough about Matt. He is one of the most thorough, professional, honest, and knowledgeable lawyers I have ever met. He is always prepared in every aspect, and for that I am thankful. He will sit down with you and explain the whole process. He will also be very transparent in the possible and likely outcomes. You can't go wrong with his representation. Thanks Matt.

Matt is an exceptional attorney. Helped walk me through one of the darkest points in my life with knowledge, professionalism and compassion. He answered my calls every time, or returned my calls ASAP, to answer even the most remedial of questions from me. He took time to explain the process and my options, and clearly communicated every time. It's hard to trust someone during something like this, but I fully trusted Matt and know he did all he could to help me obtain the best outcomes. HIghly Recommend him!

I highly recommend Matt Martin. He was my lawyer in two cases. The second case had tons of media attention during the case. It was intense but I knew I had Matt my as my defense attorney. He advised me through the whole process and was willing to answer all my concerns. I will never go to another lawyer, his intelligence and intellect will always rise above! I advise anyone looking for counsel to definitely give him a call. The results I received in this case was phenomenal. I appreciate and it will not go unnoticed.

Look no further - hire Matt if you want the best results!
Matt is an incredible, sharp, honest and trustworthy lawyer to say the very least! This past year has been the hardest year I’ve had to face with two drug related felony charges and one misdemeanor seeking jail time for a first time offense. Matt got my two felony charges dismissed within six months and probation with in home detention for the misdemeanor shortly after. Both far better outcomes then I could’ve asked for. Matt was informative and supportive the whole way, offering his guidance and being available to answer any and all of my questions (some repetitive, some border line silly). I am thankful I found Matt when I did because he literally helped change my life for the better by fighting for me and offering advice based on 25 years of experience. He’s “one of the good guys”. Hire Matt, you won’t regret it. He is seriously the best lawyer and knows what he’s talking about!!!

Magic.
IF YOU ARE READING THIS YOU FOUND YOUR LAWYER!!!
I was on probation for my 2nd DUI and I had a lot going on in my life, and didnt show up for UA's, meetings, and more. I had a probation violation and didnt show up to court in October of 2018 and then had a warrant for my arrest. I found MATT MARTIN and I am so happy I did! I finished what I needed to do and he had my probation terminated and my case closed. He is magic.
This was almost a 3 year case/probation/everything and I was facing another year (or more) in jail, or 2-4 more years on probation, or whatever they wanted to do. I am free and done with everything thanks to Matt Martin!!! I cried and laughed, and cried again when I left that courtroom. Words cannot express how incredible I am feeling today.
I would rate a million stars of I could. He changed my life and helped me when other lawyers were telling me I would be lucky if I didnt go to jail.
THANK YOU MATT, FOR EVERYTHING!!!! I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL!!! ;))))

Matt represented me in a protection order and criminal mischief trials. The other attorneys threw him disinformation and Matt handled it all. Often while thinking quickly and putting things in proper context.

A Cut Above The Rest!!!!!!
I would like to start this review by giving Matt Martin 5+ Stars!!!! In reality that means that Matt Martin is absolutely the man. He is extremely Sharp, very knowledgeable, understanding & compassionate. Immediately upon my very first meeting with him I instantly knew I was in the best hands possible. Before meeting with Matt Martin I had gone through the process of assessing almost 25 different lawyers. This lawyer is like a shark amongst minnows when you compare him to other attorneys. When I first approached him about my case I instantly knew he was the right choice, and he certainly delivered on my intuition. He was extremely honest as well as very resourceful from day one. Throughout our client and attorney relationship he did nothing but deliver over and over again. He was brutally honest and always laid out every scenario possible based in absolute truth. While I was in his office for the first time he immediately established Communications with my prosecutor and had received emails back providing us information within 20 minutes of being in his office. I had multiple different cases pending at the time when I met with him and although I had only retained him for one of my four cases he was graceful enough to advise me on the entirety of my situation. He was willing to take on my difficult struggles while simultaneously allowing me to set up a payment plan because I was having financial difficulties. If I was not already convinced that I had made a great decision all it took was the first court appearance to realize how much respect and admiration the legal system has for him which he obviously worked hard to establish within the courts. I attended multiple Court hearings in a variety of different counties and every judge knew exactly who he was, not only that but his reputation brings with it a huge presence within the courtroom. Here is a little (fun fact) I’ve witnessed multiple defendants come up to Matt and personally ask for his business card while he was representing me because they see what a boss he is. While going through my court battles he always advised me of what my options were as well as giving me his honest recommendation which turned out to be spot on. My original case that I hired him for ALL charges were dismissed. Subsequently after that he went above and beyond to appear in a different County on my behalf and had those charges dismissed as well as my case terminated. To be completely honest there was even this scenario where I was in custody and my attorney Mr. Martin showed up on my behalf without divulging my whereabouts he was still able to convince the judge that my charges should be dropped. Furthermore I feel he was always available, just a phone call away. Months later when his obligation to me was finished I reached out because I needed help and he immediately was there to assist. If you’re looking for a lawyer that doesn’t just talk a big game but actually get you results then you will never hire anybody but Matt Martin. Just like any of us who find ourselves in the midst of legal action it can understandably be intimidating. I truly feel that without Mr. Martin’s representation I would most likely be sitting in a jail cell. I cannot express how thankful I am that I had Mr. Martin fighting on my behalf to provide our desired outcome. I don't plan on having any legal issues for the rest of my future but if I do I will certainly turn nowhere but to this gentleman because he is a BADASS!!! I cannot thank you enough Matt and I hope people take this review to Heart because you are hands-down the best lawyer I’ve ever seen or used.

Best Defense Lawyer hands down
Matt took the time to explain what my options would be, what the consequences of each option were and and helped me weigh the pros and cons of each. When it came time to go to court, I was sure I was in good hands and it worked out exactly as he said it would!

Best DUI Attorney in Denver!
I was very lucky to find Matt, I initially had hired another attorney in Denver but I quickly realized he was not going to cut it. I wasn't about to place my future in a person who I felt wasn't going to fight for me. I had a lot to lose if found guilty I was patiently looking at Jail time for up-to 1 year.
Late September 2016 I myself in an unfortunate situation where I made a very poor decision and allowed a "friend" to drive my vehicle while under the influence and didn't end well. That night we were involved in a motor vehicle accident were my vehicle struck another vehicle luckily nobody was injured. At the time I allowed a person who I thought was my friend drive my vehicle not knowing he would flee the scene and I would be held responsible. Right off the back I was treated like I was guilty the officers "claimed to have not seen anyone else in the vehicle" so It quickly escalated and I was looking a serious charges. I was being charged with 6 counts of DUI and a refusal of any chemical testing or field sobriety test. I initially made the officers aware of the second person in the vehicle and that they should be looking for him, Denver PD quickly dismissed any of my statements and clearly didn't do their jobs correctly. Early on I was offered plea agreements and refused all. I took this all the way to trail and I won't lie I was very nervous of the outcome and worried about placing my future in the hands of 6 jurors, would they judge me by the evidence or by their own preconceived ideals. Either way the future didn't look bright but Matt made me feel confident in the risk and had a strong defense. I believed in him and allowed him to do what he does best. He is very tactful, well prepared, confident, and knows the law very well. Oh yeah and very sharp dresser too! Matt is a very smart person he studied my case thoroughly and called in an accident recreation expert and a PI and was able to prove my innocence. The case went to trail for 2 days with a positive outcome.
I feel Matt is the best and would recommend him to anyone, he is worth every penny. Trust me he will fight for you every step of the way.

High recommendation for Matt Martin atty
I am a long time medical professional with multiple clinical and insurance licenses to practice healthcare. I contacted Matt on a weekend when I was concerned about representation who took my emergent call on the weekend to provide me reassurance and we set a plan the following Mon am. He was able to negotiate a very fair plea agreement and his rates were very reasonable. He personally responded promptly to every correspondence and request. I feel very fortunate to have found this highly skilled professional who showed great sensitivity to my circumstances and fought for me. Highly recommend!!!!!

| Consulted Attorney
Very, Very, helpful and considerate
I contacted Matthew about a DWAI case after I had already made a plea bargain with the District Attorney. I specifically contacted him about an express consent hearing scheduled in the near future. He gave me great advice and told me under 'my circumstances' to save my money and he directed me, in what I believe, the right way to handle it. I am a refusal case. He also advised me on my court case that I plead out the day before. He seems like an honest, genuine person, who cares about his clients. Not just a fly by night, hot shot. Thank you, Matthew, for your extended time you placed on me!

Fantastic lawyer, look no further
Matthew Martin is a amazing attorney.
He is not joking when he says " I am ultra-competitive and will always be the most prepared attorney in the courtroom".
Matt will take your case serious from beginning to end. Throughout my whole case, Matt was honest and upfront with me.
What more could you really ask for.
Matt has a affordable payment plans, with can really help out in hard times. Many other attorneys don't even offer assistance like payment plans.
I would recommend Matt to anybody looking for a professional, honest and upfront, and most importantly knowledgeable attorney at a affordable fair price.
Matt is truly a superb attorney and his experience presides his reputation.
Matt has passion and dedication for what he does, through that you will get results.
I'd highly recommend looking no further.
