solid attorney

Had a positive outcome after hiring Christopher. He was able to work magic and had a sophisticated and positive demeanor. Would hire again.

Happy Ending

I would refer Christopher Martens to anyone. I was scared and confused about what was happening. He explained it every step of the way. He was able to get my charges reduced and with minor consequences. I am pleased I chose him to represent me and I would refer him to others in need of a lawyer.

You're Still A Good Person

Mistakes are made, careless actions take place everyday. This doesn't mean your a bad person. I'm a hard working man with two jobs trying to get out of debt and live a better life. After a long stressful draining 16hr day I had a vodka cocktail right after work. I lived very close and me being a... bigger guy I thought one drink was ok. My coworker had asked me for a ride... long story short I was arrested for DUI. I hired Christopher Martens as my attorney. He made me feel comfortable. There was not one ounce of judgement in his eyes. I felt he saw the good person in me when I was disappointed and couldn't see it in myself. He was confident that I could reduce my DUI to a wet and reckless and he did just so. After settling my case, I feel like I have a second chance. This time not taking these situation so lightly and carefree. Thank you Christopher Martens.

Labor Day Mistake

Christopher was very informative, knew a lot about the law and how to avoid losing my license. He helped me to get a minimum sentence for my DUI and not lose my license. He was very supportive and understood all my concerns. He addressed all my questions and was flexible with his payment. He also... has a great personality and is very easy to talk to. I would recommend him to anyone needing a good, reasonably priced and conscience lawyer.

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
