The Law Offices of Mark S. Martinez is such a place. The basic premise of almost every accident is there is an individual or entity at fault and behind them is the insurance whose primary goal is to deter and minimize the cost associated with the injury. Unfortunately, the systems in place for an unrepresented or underrepresented individual are not designed to ensure that full medical treatment and compensation will be awarded by the insurance company of the individual at fault.

Commitment to your case and knowledge of real estate law

RE: Letter of Recommendation for Attorney Mark Martinez To Whom It May Concern: I was initially impressed with Attorney Mark Martinez enthusiasm, communication skills and professional demeanor when I brought him onboard as the lead attorney. As a client, I worked closely with Mr. Martinez thro...ughout the development and legal proceedings of my juridical matters. During our meetings, Mr. Martinez consistently demonstrated a thorough knowledge of new incoming California laws/ Assembly bills. His ability to review my concerns, and critique the case with code expertise was unsurpassed. He always shows commitment to team, ability to understand the dynamics of personalities, and the ability to follow and establish leadership directives as needed. He understood intuitively when colleagues were confused, lost, or off-track, and brought those individuals back on task without judgment. He managed me in stressful and complicated situations requiring high levels of intelligence and understanding: He met every challenge, deadline, and goal presented and tackled every problem with grace and ease. The solutions Mr. Martinez proposed were insightful and practical, and he showed a remarkable capacity for breaking large issues into manageable segments. His innovative ideas and solutions increased the case time efficiency, and he has made valuable contributions in other areas as well. He is perceptive, emphatic, and committed to every task he takes remaining tempered by good judgment and reason. Mark earned our trust by always doing everything he said he would, they truly did have our best interests in mind at all times, and if you give him the opportunity I am sure you will find him equally impressive. Sincerely, Matt B.

Highly Recommended

I consulted Mark regarding a landlord/tenant dispute and was able to make an appointment and meet with him the same day. Mark took the time to review all of the evidence, helped me understand my options and explained what the process will be going forward. Mark is also willing and ready to represent ...when the time comes. Prior to speaking with him his paralegal and front desk receptionist are all super friendly and knowledgeable. The whole team is great.

foreclosure defense

I consulted Mark on behalf of a family member to get his advice on ways to avoid foreclosure. I found Mark's advice to be very clear and helpful. It was clear to me that Mark had considerable expertise in this area and his way of explaining our options made us very comfortable in deciding how we were... going to proceed in this matter. I would certainly recommend his services to others and I would contact him again for similar services.
