Recently I engaged Mr. Martin to represent me where my ex-wife was attempting to take shared custody of my son. Although Mr. Martin prefers to avoid court and resolve issues collaboratively, previous efforts toward constructive communication with my ex-wife have never been effective. Unfortunately, proceeding to court was my last and only option.
From the beginning, Mr. Martin listened and understood the details of my case. Preparing to have my case heard, we spent a lot of time going over my declarations. Once we were in court, it became clear to me how important this effort was.
Going into this, Mr. Martin was very up front about the potential costs, and the reality that it is not possible to be certain about the court's decision. Although I felt we had a good case based on my ex-wife's actions, this left me with no false perceptions about the outcome. At least I knew what I was getting into.
When the time came for Mr. Martin to present my side of the situation in court, he was skilled and confident. Both in communicating my position, and presenting evidence to the court. In the end I am very happy with my decision to fight for retaining equally shared custody of my son.
Throughout the process Mr. Martin has been competent, professional, and completely honest about all aspects of my case, there have been no unwelcome surprises. In any aspect of family law, I would recommend Mr. Martin without hesitation.
