We provide negotiation, mediation, and litigation services for clients throughout Southern California.

Practical Advice, Skillful Mediation, Aggressive Representation

Litigation is expensive and it's seldom the most cost-effective method to resolve a consumer-business dispute. We provide our clients with a cost-benefit analysis to help them understand the costs associated with bringing their case to court. In this way the client can make an informed decision about how they wish to proceed.

If mediation can achieve an acceptable result at far less cost, we support our clients' goals with mediation. Mr. Martin is a certified mediator.

Some cases of consumer fraud are so egregious, and the damage so serious that the most appropriate response is to take the case to court. Attorney Martin is a trial attorney with more than 30 years of courtroom experience.
