Belinda Ann Martin
I grew up in Texas, and after meeting my husband in Atlanta, eventually relocated and attended John Marshall Law School in Atlanta. On graduating, I founded Fowler and Martin with a law school colleague, which we operated for several years. I then established Martin Law, P.C. in 2016 and have served clients through that firm until joining the Stearns Law team.
I think my preparation skills help me stand apart from other attorneys. I am also very client-centered and involve my client in the process every step of the way.”
Clients say that I am hard-working, approachable, reachable, prepared, and formidable in court. I describe myself as pragmatic, with a focus on solutions. I work hard to find a way to meet my client’s expectations and accomplish their goals while at the same time guiding them through the legal process. If there is a way to settle a case, I want to find it. But I am always willing to keep fighting, if necessary.
I am community-oriented and am a founding member of the Juvenile Dependency Accountability Court in Forsyth County, Georgia as parent attorney and served as president of the Forsyth County Juvenile Bar Association from 2018-2020. I am involved in my church, and have a passion for advocacy for breast cancer research. I was a board member of National Association of Counsel for Children, 2017-2020.
I have also served as guardian ad litem on various matters and in some very difficult cases and think this makes me particularly good with custody issues. My training in mediation style allows me to offer my clients the opportunity to resolve their legal issues in a less expensive and stressful way.
I enjoy teaming up with my husband Chris to remodel “fixer-upper” homes. “We are always working on a project at our home. We are also new grandparents and love every minute of spoiling our granddaughter, Azalea Fay. Belinda also hangs out with her elderly corkie (cocker spaniel/Yorkie). She’s had us since she was a puppy
