I have seen Martin in the Fresno County courts multiple times. He is respectful, well-spoken, and professional, yet still vigorously defends his clients with passion. He truly cares about his clients. He has also helped me come up with creative resolutions on cases that my Judges have agreed with. I have learned a lot from working on cases with him.

Martin is a skilled litigator whose creativity is only exceeded by his tenacity. I have watched him work just as hard for those clients with smaller cases as for those with larger cases. It is clear to me that he always has the best interest of his clients at heart. I will also say that his experience with criminal defense work also gives him important insights when a civil case and a criminal case intersect. Martin is an excellent choice for your personal injury lawyer.
Nicholas Capozzi, Criminal defense Attorney on Sep 2, 2017

I endorse this lawyer. Martin is one of the most knowledgeable criminal defense lawyers I know. He has a stored wealth of information on criminal law and he puts it to good use on behalf of his clients in court. He is not grandiose and boisterous in court, like some, but instead takes the (better) approach of advocating through preparedness and clear thinking/speaking. I highly recommend Martin if you need a local defense attorney.
