"Martin is not just a great lawyer, he is a great person. The kindness, respect, and empathy he shows towards his clients is not what you would normally experience with other criminal defense attorneys.

"Martin is, hands down, the best criminal defense attorney I know. He is brilliant, a zealous advocate, and most important, he gets incredible results. If I ever needed a lawyer, he would be the first person I call... I can't think of higher praise than that. And, beyond his top-notch capabilities and skills, he is a wonderful human being. He genuinely cares about his clients and he treats every case as if it is his most important case. I can't recommend Martin highly enough."

"I have had the pleasure of working with Martin Lijtmaer as co-counsel on an ongoing multi defendant felony matter in Pasadena. His experience, work ethic and tenacity make him a superb choice for any criminal case. He is one of the hardest working criminal practitioners in Pasadena and he goes the extra mile for his clients. I recommend Mr. Lijtmaer without reservation and hope I have the opportunity to work with him on more cases in the future."

"I first met Martin after watching him in action in the courtroom. I was so impressed with his preparation and presentation that I immediately introduced myself and we were soon working together on a case. He is deeply committed to his clients and does not back down, even in the face of a tough fight. He has exceptional legal training and experience. I know how effective Martin can do be on a case because I've seen it. I strongly endorse him."

"Martin is an all-around excellent lawyer. Not only does he know how to litigate cases, but he's also a great person and a great writer. I first noticed Martin when I read his writing. Great writing ability is -- sadly -- a talent which is waning by the day, and which society seems not to care about anymore. Not so with Martin. He writes with clarity, impact, and persuasiveness. I would recommend Martin without reservation."

He has been of great help and counsel on various kinds of criminal matters ranging from DUI and shoplifting to more serious cases where our client was facing life in prison. With Mr. Lijtmaer’s help we have been able to achieve excellent results on the cases we have worked together. He is an excellent attorney who I strongly endorse. I look forward to working with Mr. Lijtmaer in the future."
