Carlos N. Martinez

Finally got divorced because I hired a different lawyer. We had an easy, noncontested divorce that should have been filed quickly and easily. He sent prefilled out paper work without any of the changes we needed, it took months to get any responses. Finally I just made the changes myself. Why pay... thousands of dollars to end up doing the job yourself? His partner refused to return my phone calls either when I called asking for help.

Hired Carlos Martinez, He never kept my informed of what was going on with my case. Said it would only cost a certain amount to file and go to court. Ended paying him more money and never once went to court with him. He never gave me my ex discovery never file for an extension on the discovery that w...as sent to me. Knowing he had messed up and given it to me late and knew I was out of town. Once he was dismissed from my case, he gave me a hard time to get my files to give to my new attorney.

I interviewed for my case, paid in full. Carlos choose not file a entry of appearance, he no showed my court date. I did call the office of Carlos and spoke with his secretary Kim to remind of my court date one month prior. The day of my court and sitting there by myself with no a show attorney. I ...called Carlos office. Kim made excuses for Carlos as to why he no showed. Kim states he could not talk to me due to a appointment. A few minutes later I got a call from his office advising my refund check is ready for pick up. I got no explanation from Carlos.
