Genuine Character

Mr. Duenhoelter isnt ordinary in the fact that he is exceptional. The feelings and understanding and solutions he brought to the table exceeded my expectations of what was possible hiring someone of his expertise. Highly advise a quick chat at the very least to see for yourself why I chose Mr. Duenho...elter's services. You will not be disappointed, and you will wish you had spoken to him sooner. High flying review. Respectful, dependable, punctual, wise, and trustworthy.

awesome straight up guy

Called needing an attorney and just wanted some basic info on how the system worked. He was prompt in returning my calls and answering questions. He was honest and straightup. He made no promises yet had a confidence and swagger that said im the one you want. His knowledge in tacoma and elsewhere su...ggested he had some inside info on how things work in pierce county. Things worked out for me. Basically i slept in on my court date but no worries Martin took care of everything. He reccomends you show up to see the process. Needless to say ill be utilizing him in the future. Very highly recommend him.

Best Lawyer I know, Hands down!

Over the years Martin has helped many of my close friends and family numerous times. It hasn't mattered what the ticket or fine was, Martin used his wittiness and superb legal knownledge to either get it dropped or dramatically reduced. He is professional on all levels and an overall genuine guy. I w...ould reccommend Martin to anyone looking for a lawyer in the Pierce County, Tacoma, area.

Old enough to have experience, young enough to have zeal.

Martin Duenhoelter is the only lawyer I will use for criminal defense. He is affordable. He has saved me 15+ years of my life. I have used him on 3 seperate occasions with multiple felonies on each of these times. He did'nt judge me on any of these. His resolve was the same. He gets enough resp...ect from the prosecuters to get good plea bargains everytime. If he does'nt know something he continually schools himself to obtain the answers to my questions. He has a way about him that allows him to make the prosecuters see you as a person, with a family, with a past, not just another packet on their stacks. I would recomend him to anyone. I owe him my life (

"I've tried approximately 300 jury trials. On only one did I have co-counsel, and on that one, my co-counsel was Martin Duenhoelter. Martin is an excellent attorney, and an all around great guy. Together we made a formidable team. If I missed something, Martin was there to cover for me. During our work together he proved to be an impressive trial attorney. I am also aware of his reputation in the legal community as someone who does an excellent job on behalf of both his traffic and criminal clients. Martin knows his way around Pierce County courtrooms as well as any attorney that I know. Without hesitation I recommend him to anyone in need of legal services in Pierce County, be it a traffic ticket or criminal charge."
