If you are in the middle of a conflict that requires legal help, do yourself the biggest favor of your life and HIRE Martina Teinert. She is not only really nice and honest with you, she will demonstrate to you the utmost professionalism and the highest level of knowledge in her field in your favor!! She will do her best for your favorable outcome. During my trial, she made the opposing lawyer look like he was in a high school court hearing play. He looked completely foolish and stunned when he didnt have a good comeback. He had to take a "break" and reconvine with his client!! Lol

Normally I'm not the one to place bad reviews, but I'm looking out for people's lively hood. & It seems like she either has her bad reviews filtered or removed. At first working with Martina was good, she seemed compassionate & understanding. She kept me updated with my husband's case. E-mailed me back pretty quickly & answered my questions. The moment we started asking questions & asking for copies of documents she kept beating around the bush & started being very hostile. She kept pushing us to sign the deal the d.a. offered. She finally pulled out of our case we pursued out case with our public

I am honored to leave an excellent review for Attorney Martina Teinert. I hired her on a Monday which was also a Holiday. I was informed that morning I had to appear in court the very next day and I was a bit frantic not knowing I had court that next day. That Tuesday morning at 8:30 am, Martina appeared as a professional whom is confidant, attractive, direct, easy to talk with, pays attention to detail and walks through the whole case with you. Martina was able to accomplish what I needed in a relatively short time through prompt & direct communication and 3 Court appearances. Martina and

Martie is a very thorough and competent professional who I could tell is very passionate of her work. She is amply professional and always had my best interests in mind. I was always informed with Martie as my attorney and I always felt like I was in very good hands. She never missed a scheduled meeting and she always took my calls at all times. I truthfully feel like I have an attorney that I could call for all matters.
What I especially like about Martie is her calm and comforting demeanor. She is always very positive, straight forward, and is down to earth which made me feel comforted throughout

Martina is the best thing that's ever happened to me. After going back and forth on whether or not I needed a lawyer, I finally decided to make a few calls and speak with a few different attorneys. Martina right off the bat was the most informative, helpful and was the only one who seemed genuinely invested in helping. Most other attorneys I spoke with had a very cavalier attitude. She was very easy to get ahold of throughout the duration of my case, and consistently kept me in loop as to any changes/progress being made.
I have never felt like someone worked harder for me in my entire life, and

Martina has worked with me for just about 2 years. She has helped me fight a DUI charge amongst other charges. I received a second DUI before my first DUI court appearance. She helped me avoid jail time. I won't lie. We have had our differences at times but I think that is only natural. As a defendent, I didn't want to do jail time or rehab and wanted an unrealistic deal with the courts. In reality, Martina helped me get the best deal possible. Martina always was helpful with all my questions. She respects client and lawyer confidentiality. I would recommend Martina because she truly does care

Martina handled my traffic matter three years ago. She was incredibly punctual, professional and was able to get a full dismissal on my matter! Can't beat that! Since then, I have sent friends who have run into trouble her way and she has been able to get them great deals. If you want your case handled with care and precision then definitely give her office a call!

As a civil litigation attorney, I have referred many people to Martina Vigil. She has done nothing less than an exceptional job for every person referred by myself. These referrals include criminal charges for drug sales, domestic violence, even DUI. She was very honest with these referrals and every single person called me and thanked me for introducing them to Martina. Other attorneys in my building have also made the decision to send their criminal defense and family law referrals to Martina since she has a proven track record for obtaining the best deal possible for her clients. I will continue

I was arrested on August 22nd 2014 for my 2nd DUI offense in 10 years. I consider myself a professional so this was a devastating disappointment to myself and to my family. When I got out of jail, I knew I had to find a attorney to get me through this, not only to make sure that I wasn't prosecuted to the full extent of the law, but to also take the weight off of my shoulders. I did what most people would do and I searched online. I spoke to a few attorneys and ultimately decided to choose Martina, she was not the cheapest out there but in this situation YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE CHEAP and hire a inexperienced
