Charles Brian Martin

Brian is a guy who loses touch with objective truth and dangerously flirts with subjectivity and speculation. He tends to represent females in need … not a pretty picture— and quickly gets personally involved with his clients. His demeanor is questionable at best, and it’s surprising he hasn’t recei...ved legal censure by the state bar of California. The previous review mentioned his fees (or lack thereof) and that is quite telling about his own motives in taking on cases. It’s not about money, so what is it about? This guy needs to be investigated for improper attorney-client relations. His reputation is clouded by bombastic behavior in and outside of the courtroom. Everything is personal for him. He will drag your case on and on.

Brian is an amazing attorney for child custody. He was passionate about my family law case and helped me with a child custody arrangement to keep my child safe. He has an incredible amount of knowledge and strong intuition. He commands the court room and is highly skilled at getting to the point an i...n effective manner. He is my second attorney. I have been with him for a few years now. The first attorney I tried had a much lower hourly rate, but what I later found was that Brian was much more cost effective in the long run. To go to court with the first attorney somehow costed me significantly more than Brian did for a single court hearing. After Brian's first billing, I knew he was a good guy and not out to get rich off my case, in addition to being very effective in court. The other thing I would say about him is that he understands how emotionally difficult these cases are and has been able to coach me into calmness at times and help me see things that I could not extract from various experiences on my own. Brian Martin is a master at what he does. And I highly recommend him.
