I am amazed at the level of care and dedication this Lawyer has. I feel like he's more than a Lawyer but a friend. He made me confident from the start. He looked at my case, and gave me a honest opinion. He went to bat for me. If not for his extended knowledge of the law, I know that my case would have ended differently. I have no doubt the Mr. Martinez saved me a ton of grief and years of hassle in the end. No matter what your facing, give Jon a call first. If your facing any degree of criminal or civil charges, don't wait til it's too late. Pick up your phone and call this man!!! Thank You Jon Martinez for your professionalism, thank you for making me feel like family. Thank You,

• He represented me in a personal debacle, and I was impressed with his performance in court, as well as his referential knowledge of the ins and outs of Arizona Law. • I have seven years of college myself, so I know how much study it took to get that point, and I appreciate that he was able to use it on my behalf. • I would definitely recommend Jon Martinez. He is no-nonsense, direct and capable. I was very satisfied w/ his service.

Jon Martinez was instrumental and extremely helpful in getting my son a diversion plea deal on a domestic violence charge so that once the diversion conditions are met, the charge will be completely dismissed. This was by far the best result we could have hoped for. Jon is extremely knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend him!

Jon Martinez did an incredible job on my sons case. He had many felonies and was looking at a very long time in prison. We are thankful for the plea Jon worked hard at getting for our son.

My husband and I first worked with Jon during a criminal traffic case in which he was able to get two criminal traffic charges dropped down to a minor speeding ticket that the prosecutor was willing to let my husband go to traffic school and have everything completely washed away. Unfortunately, the judge would not let that happen as he put it, " I can't let him go with nothing." Either way, we were extremely happy with the outcome even if the judge did not cooperate. I have now hired Jon to defend my husband against Manslaughter charges that could land him 10-30 years in prison. He has already made what has become a living nightmare for me and my daughter, a much more bearable situation. I feel as though I have hired a friend and teammate, instead of an attorney. His professional and personable demeanor is beyond compare. I feel confident he will do anything and everything not only to help my husband but to help me and my daughter through the entire process as well. There is something to be said about a good attorney, but Jon is more than that. He honestly cares and is a compassionate man. Do not trust your or your family's future to anyone else.
