Posted by SA | September 27, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Domestic Violence

Fantastic Job - This firm delivered.

My issue: Petition for a domestic violence restraining order was filed against me by my ex fiancé for a few annoying, poorly worded e-mails I sent her; none of which made any threats of any physical harm. Regardless. I was looking at being slapped with a permanent DV restraining order which is seri...ously bad news considering restraining orders stay on your record and disallow certain rights. To make matters worse, I'm currently on probation for a DUI from a couple of years back and I seriously didn't want to deal with any additional legal troubles. Yvonne Todd, Esq. handled my case from start to finish and after my first consultation with her I felt confident she would be able to get me out of this ordeal. Yvonne was very easy to get a hold of and our line of communication was great. Prior to my hearing she explained in detail what her strategy would be and this helped reduce my stress level. Results of hearing: Petition for DV Restraining Order denied! Yvonne knew exactly what she was doing because she's a pro. Thank you!!!

Outstanding Criminal Defense Lawyer

My wife and I had an argument over our children, she called the police and made a false report against me. I was arrested on Felony Domestic Violence, Assault With a Deadly Weapon and two counts of Child Endangerment. The following day, my wife filed for a Domestic Violence Restraining Order and la...w enforcement filed a Criminal Protective Order against me. After four days in jail, I was released on a 75K bail bond, ordered to attend a 52-week batterer intervention program and could not see my children. On my court day, I was assigned a Public Defender who did not want to hear my testimony and basically accused me of the charges and information given to her by the District Attorney. At that point, I didn’t know what to do and thought I had no choice but to plead guilty for something I did not do. My family and I did some research for criminal defense attorneys. The Law Offices of Tyrone R. Martinez stood out amongst other prestigious reputable lawyers. I read his reviews, profile and his official record of the State Bar. I knew Ty was the one I wanted to represent me. After discussing my side of the story with Ty, he immediately studied my situation, started strategizing using techniques that I would not have imagined until he explained it to me the way he saw things in a different perspective. He made sure that my rights and interests were protected. I felt hopeful that someone finally believed in me and was willing to put his all into the case. We selected the jury and trial lasted three days. Ty’s closing statement made the jury envision the true facts of my case and they deliberated and decided the verdict within 40 minutes. “NOT GUILTY ON ALL FOUR COUNTS!” That was incredible! I was shocked, overwhelmed and literally in tears to hear the verdict from each one of the twelve jurors. Ty is an amazing attorney who knows the system and the law very well. Even though he is very busy, he was always available by email and by phone. He really made me feel confident of my case and got the best outcome possible. Ty demonstrated professionalism, outstanding workmanship, legal knowledge, caring and patience throughout my case. I highly recommend Ty Martinez and his partner Yvonne Todd for an excellent job well done. They are incredibly outstanding attorneys and reasonably affordable. Do not hesitate to hire this outstanding legal team without a doubt, it will be the best thing you can do for yourself if you ever find yourself in legal trouble. Thanks again to the Law Offices of Tyrone R. Martinez.

THANKS FOR KEEPING ME OUT OF DOING JAIL OR PRISON TIME, TY!!!

The courts were offering me a total of four years in prison and after hiring Ty, my sentence was reduced to 180 days of house arrest with a private non-monitored company which did not report to probation. It was great because I was able to keep my job and stay out of jail. I will be using Ty AGAIN in... about five more months once I am done with probation so I can expunge all this nightmare and put it all behind me. Ty, once again THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR GREAT LEGAL KNOWLEDGE!!!

Outstanding, Outstanding, Outstanding

I have nothing but excellent things to say about being represented by Ty Martinez. This was my first time ever needing representation in any nature and I was referred to him by an older friend. He is accessible, prompt, trustworthy and simply put, knows what he's doing. He kept me informed through...out all parts of the legal process and put forth his best efforts every step of the way. His truthfulness, sincerity, and honesty is second to none and you'd be hard pressed to find better representation. Excellent, excellent, excellent. After facing 3 felony charges, I opted to go to trial rather than take a misdemeanor plea. Ty demonstrated great understanding of the law and proved himself to be an outstanding trial attorney. I am proud to say that the hung jury had a very favorable Not Guilty verdict and the case was dismissed by the judge. Hats off to you Ty and thank you.

Yvonne is an excellent criminal defense lawer

I searched the internet and discover Tyrone R Martinez & Yvonne Todd. Very next day his partner Yvonne Todd met me at the court and she explained step by step, how we would approach the case and how she would handle. When my future is on the line, and being accused of child abuse, count 1 as felony... and count 2 as misdemeanor, a criminal defense lawyer Yvonne Todd will be your rescue. Yvonne was with me every step of the way, from the beginning to the end. To make the long story short, we won the trial by unanimous jury decision on felony and misdemeanor case was hung and favor of us 7 to 5 jury decision. Eventually both cases were dismissed. I cannot even put into words how appreciative I am of her hard work and expertise. My deepest appreciations and gratitude for the outstanding work that Yvonne Todd has shown. She was very professional, prompt, and knowledgeable and handled my case with uppermost concern. I would strongly recommend Yvonne as your attorney any given day.
