Martinez Employment Lawyers

Experienced, multi-state licensed attorney specializing in Accident Injury & Employment Law. My practice is designed around this truth: 'In life, you don't get what you deserve. You get what you NEGOTIATE.'

I am a gentle kind effective litigator trial lawyer navigator between civil and white collar crime in federal and state court in multiple areas including fraud, abuse of process, financial elder abuse, contracts, federal tort claims and family law.

My mission is to promote justice and equality, using existing laws and creating additional laws to protect people's constitutional rights.
