Truly upsetting service this time around. I had representation from you guys back in 2023. Although I felt like the results could of been better, I was content then. As to why I took up this firm again in 2025. This time around I was very nervous and even pressured by the first person I had spoken to about my case. Megan Wright. I was told my case was serious and needed immediate action. Little did I know that, even though I mentioned there was no charges yet, I would come to take them on for nothing. I should of listened to friends and family and waited for actual charges to come by first. NOTE IT HERE FIRST GUYS. DO NOT HIRE UNLESS YOU KNOW YOUR BEING CHARGED. Wish someone told me earlier. Megan didn’t. Instead I was charged over 2k for what came to be nothing. I was told by one of the many people (Chris, Gabriel) they threw off at me that they closed the case since no charges came about. When I asked for a refund, they said there wouldn’t be one since they spent their time on the case. Again please tell me what case, what discovery? When i asked for an itemized receipt for work done, Gabriel has yet to provide that. Honestly, by this sort of “work”, you’re better off with a public defender. Also noting I took out a whole loan just to be paying it back monthly for just plainly, not enough work and because I wanted to be safe, not sorry. All I am is sorry I went with this firm. Never again.Read more

We retained this firm for an urgent custody situation, putting down a $6,000 retainer based on a commitment that a draft affidavit would be ready by Monday. Shortly after hiring them out of panic, we began thoroughly reading through their online reviews and realized other clients had experienced major issues. Because of this, we decided to terminate representation after just a few days. While the staff members themselves are very nice, the actual business structure is highly concerning and costly. The firm relies on the signed contract to justify its billing practices, but potential clients should be aware of how quickly those charges accumulate before any legal work is produced. At many firms, you speak with one or two people and receive direct legal guidance. Here, we were routed through an administrative assembly line. I had to explain our time-sensitive family emergency to three separate staff members across scheduling, billing, and administrative departments -getting billed for every single call before repeating it a fourth time to the attorney for a brief conversation. For a $6,000 retainer, we received zero substantive legal advice or answers. Furthermore, the logistics are incredibly disorganized. The firm maintains multiple online listings with different addresses. When attempting to drop off time-sensitive documents at the listed Minneapolis office, we discovered it is mail-only that nobody really works there. The alternative office provided in apple valley had no signage for this law firm; it was an unbranded space inside a completely unrelated reality business. The staff member on the phone handling our file did not know where the attorney was physically located and had to call her phone to find them—and we were billed for that specific phone call just trying to locate the firm. Nearly $2,000 of our retainer was used in a matter of days solely for administrative onboarding, internal staff messaging, and navigating their office , without any legal documents being produced. Please Look elsewhere for real legal help.Read more

I worked with Jude. He helped me with a HRO case that was falsely filed against me. He is precise, well versed in the law, professional, empathetic, and he was very gentle while taking the testimony of minors. I would recommend Jude and the Martine Law Firm with full confidence that they will do a great job. In the event that I ever need legal counsel again I will 100% hire them without a doubt. Thank you for all of your hard work, Jude!Read more

Attorney Jude and paralegal Victoria were amazing. They answered any questions I had and not only supported me legally, but emotionally as well. I started crying before heading into the courtroom and both Jude and Victoria offered words of encouragement and helped calm me down, they truly made me feel like they were on my side. Jude was very clear about options I had before proceeding with the case. I am forever grateful I had such great representation.Read more

I would give them zero stars if I could. They charged me $4500, copy/pasted from my own documents to theirs, read nothing about my case, showed up in court arguing something that wasn’t even relevant, allowed the other party off with an agreement that I knew he wouldn’t follow without consequences but was shut down and ignored, only for the whole case to be dropped and me left without my kids for another 1.5 years at this point because I don’t have the money to pay another attorney who’s just going to rip me off. It’s a sad system and even more sad that some will take advantage of those at a disadvantage when they are clearly the better parent. They just aren’t fighting with 50k like their ex. And when I called out Martine Law, they made excuses and couldn’t talk and then ignored me entirely. They won’t even give me my record including statements and court outcomes. They are crooked, money hungry criminals who will promise the world and deliver a handful of dust. Very expensive dust.Read more
