I was referred by a friend to Marcus and I have to say, he truly is exceptional and stands out for many reasons but mostly because he genuinely cares. In my experience this very hard to find in an attorney. He has been very professionally reliable and honest.
In addition he knows the law very well and has found strategic ways to think outside the box to help my son and I. His assistant is also very professional and super nice. Highly recommended!

I don't even know where to start about Mr. Martin. I was referred to Marcus and honestly I couldn't have asked for more. I'm a single dad, with a checkered past. The chances of me receiving primary custody of my daughter seemed impossible. I truly felt Mr. Martin cared about my daughter and myself and he fought very hard and now I have custody of my little girl! He is very knowledgeable. He knows the law. He is my daughters hero. If you listen to this man, you will not lose.

I was very impressed by the professionalism and dedication of Marcus Martin. His knowledge and expertise makes it super easy to get an uncontested divorce without hassle. I love his approach to work and how he puts his clients in high regard. The entire divorce process took less than 60 days. I am very satisfied with the help I got and I would choose him again if I am ever in need of a legal help again. I strongly recommend M.L. Martin Law services!
