Wrongly Accused

I'm not sure how to properly thank Christopher for taking my case and making me feel confident and comfortable when I needed it the most. He listened when I ranted. He heard my concerns when I was completely freaked out and was understanding to what I was going through. I'm a single Dad of three li...ttle kids who I sacrifice my world for and I was about to lose everything I had because someone had no regard for me as a person, parent or human being. I was falsely accused and prosecuted for a criminal offense that I never did nor happened. I woke up one August morning to find out I was being charged by Kings County and that I could face a year in jail, heavy fines and my life completely upended. I was appointed a public defender who I felt ; showed no empathy for my situation and already deemed me to face some sort of penalty just because "if the shoe fits". They had no evidence to support their case but went ahead and took five months of my life anyway... I felt robbed . Mr. Martens from day one was confident that a successful outcome would be the case and that's the only thing he would fight for.... We weren't excepting any pleas or Deal........ So... DISMISSED. For lack of evidence...... Thank You Mr. Martens and Staff!!! I can breath again. Even though my time with you was brief, my appreciation will last for life.... Sincerely, Brian

Christopher Martens...An extremely motivated and dedicated criminal defense attorney.

I was recently arrested over the summer and charged with a misdemeanor that falls under the umbrella of domestic violence; it was very stressful. I received several advertisements in the mail, from various law firms. I liked Attorney Christopher Martens professionally made post card, and the speed... in which it arrived in my mailbox. After a free consultation, in Christopher Martens Visalia law office, on mooney blvd, across from pep boys, I opted to hire him. I did not have to go to court... Christopher handled everything and his office staff was very friendly. Christopher always immediately returned my phone calls, texts, and emails; he even called me back on a Saturday, holiday weekend... Now that's dedicated! My charge, thanks to Attorney Martens, was not filed, and I get to move on with my life, I a positive way. I highly recommend the law offices of Attorney Christopher Martens.

A great Attorney

I would highly recommend Christopher I've never had a problem getting in contact with him every time I call he always answers. We used him for a case my son was involved in my son got the best possible outcome for a case that could have sent him to prison for many years. Christopher is professional a...nd very understanding and caring. I would definitely use him again if the need arose.
