Edith Marie Martinez

I hired Edith to help with a specific child custody matter. Edith is extremely efficient and to the point. She told me how the court would view my case and what needed to happen for me to attain my objective. Edith is a no-nonsense lawyer and doesn't play games, she kept me connected with my case t...hroughout. I don't hesitate to recommend Edith Martinez without reservation.

Several attorneys and a post divorce custody battle that was going nowhere left me distraught and frustrated. A message for another associate put me in touch with Ms. Martinez, but I believe it was divine providence. Ms. Martinez is absolutely the finest representative and most passionate advoca...te I could ask for - representing us in a long-term custody and visitation case, that was further complicated by our overseas location. She is scrupulously honest, direct and plain-spoken. Her experience, clear explanation of process and possible outcomes, combined with her keen observations of human nature, gave us confidence that our family was in good hands. I have recommended Ms. Marinez to others and would gladly do so again.

I am grateful to have met Ms. Martinez during a very challenging time in my life. She provided me the with the reassurance, confidence and determination I needed to follow through with my child custody case and we prevailed. She crafted language in my case documents that was clear, well thought ou...t, met my objectives and provided protections for my children and me. She represented me in trail as a confident, knowledgeable and seasoned professional. I could have not done it without her, Thank you (Mahalo) Edith!

Edi is a great no-nonsense type of lawyer. She handled to emergency ex-parte work that needed to be done immediately and that was before I had even paid her. She went up against some pretty big names in town considering my ex father-in -law is an attorney. When it didn't go their way they would chang...e lawyers. She wasn't fazed. They filed motion after ridiculous motion to try to make me run out of patience and resources. She gave me the backing I needed to be able to stand my ground. She understood where I was coming from because she used to be a legal secretary and didn't start out life with a silver spoon in her mouth. She focused, as we agreed, on getting the exact parenting plan I wanted even if that cost me in the financial department. We got the parenting plan and I got screwed on the debt but that wasn't her fault. That was because of some quick maneuvering from the other side. She also handled a DUI I was charged with. I wasn't intoxicated which the tests proved. But the prosecutor insisted I plea to DUI. Edi quickly got a plea to running a red light. Not because I would have lost if we fought but just because of the overall cost. Smart move. Good advice.
