"David was fierce yet compassionate in handling my complex case."

David was fierce yet compassionate in handling my case. Besides, I admired his timely responses to either questions from my ex’s attorney or me. David kept me posted on what was next in my case, reviewed legal clauses with me, and summarized my thoughts clearly on drafts and finals. My case was complex, and I was glad I picked David to represent.

"Brian is smart, knowledgeable and compassionate!"

I never write reviews, but this man is outstanding! Brian is smart, knowledgeable and compassionate! The man knows his stuff. He helped me with post divorce litigation and I had wished he was my initial lawyer. I would have saved so much money, instead of being misguided.

"He is very kind and empathetic, and he has a genuine interest in helping people."

While searching for an attorney to represent me in my recent divorce, I was looking for someone I could trust. Scott is not only trustworthy, but he also treated me with respect, kindness, and patience throughout the entire process. He is very much a problem-solver, and his calm demeanor and extensive mediation background helped to minimize conflict, thus saving both parties time, unnecessary anxiety, and money. Scott is extremely knowledgeable about the law; he listened to understand me, educated me, and he communicated very well. I especially appreciated that he took the time to understand my children and their specific needs – in several negotiations, it proved very beneficial, and in the end, it gave my children and me a much better outcome. Scott is very kind and empathetic, and he has a genuine interest in helping people. I recommend him without hesitation

"At the most difficult time in my life, Brian secured my future... he left no stone unturned."

Brian Martel was my divorce lawyer. At the most difficult time in my life, Brian secured my future. My ex-husband did not want to pay any alimony (after a 25-year marriage) Brian secured my future financial stability by making sure I was able to stay in and keep my home. My alimony was incorporated into the buyout I owed my ex. This was the most crucial part of the divorce for me financially. Brian is thorough and left no stone unturned. He discovered that after 25 years of marriage, my ex had been depositing marital funds into overseas accounts!! This discovery allowed my settlement to be reached. I would highly recommend Brian Martel.

FORMER CLIENT

"I can't express adequately enough how lucky I feel to have had Brian as my advocate."

Brian Martel is an outstanding attorney, and it is my absolute pleasure to highly, highly recommend him. Brian recently represented me in my high-conflict divorce. He was recommended by a friend — another family law attorney and divorce coach who promised me that Brian would take care of my children and me. He certainly did. Truly, Brian exceeded my expectations. Brian has exceptional knowledge of the law, the courts, the process, and years of experience dedicated to family law. He is professional and articulate, strategic and tough. At the same time, he is also patient, understanding, compassionate, and almost always accessible. He always answered my questions, discussed strategy, and told me in advance of court appearances exactly what was going to happen, so I was always at ease. More than just an excellent attorney, though, Brian is personable and real; there were times throughout the process when Brian and I had a few minutes just to chat and even share some laughs. You may not be able to trust everyone, but you can definitely trust Brian. He was always honest with me and would always tell me the truth, even if it wasn’t exactly what I wanted to hear. Just as important, Brian would never litigate just to litigate and run up fees; he endeavored to settle my case more than satisfactorily in as quick a manner as possible. After a tough year dealing with an adversary who seemed to thrive on the contentiousness of the process and court, my divorce was finalized, and my children and I are free and living happily. I will continue to use Brian for any issues that may arise in the future. I can’t express adequately enough how lucky I feel to have had Brian as my advocate.

JESSICA

"Everyone should have a lawyer of this caliber. He wasn't just my ally. He was my hero."

Aggressive. Tactical. Balanced. Fearless. Wicked smart. With a friendly demeanor, David Torchin outwits and outmaneuvers the other side. Looking for a mudslinging “bull in a china shop”? Look elsewhere. David fires a dart into a bullseye with just the right dosage of stinging truth, so adversaries worry about him and judges appreciate him. Need responsiveness? He updated and involved me every step of the way. He returned my calls and answered my emails. He explained issues and situations respectfully and understandably. David is a coach, a quarterback, and a running back all in one. He walked me through my divorce and custody issues, and he got them done. And amidst it all, he protected my child, bringing humanity to the process. Everyone should have a lawyer of this caliber. He wasn’t just my ally. He was my hero.

I am so grateful to have had Scott represent me. Scott is the attorney everyone hopes to have. His response time is second to none. As attorneys go, that is pretty much unheard of.

Scott W. Orr, Esq. recently represented me in my divorce settlement, which was rather complicated due to the fact I was married for approximately thirty years and have a “special needs” child that will require life support.

"During a very stressful time, Scott kept me level-headed, prepared me for whatever was coming my way, and had me laughing when that was the last thing I wanted to do."

First and foremost, Scott jumped right in and onto my case, ready, willing, and able to help me beyond what I expected. He is reasonable and knowledgeable, but to me, most importantly, available when I needed him, ready to take on any situation I brought to him. During a very stressful time, Scott kept me level-headed, prepared me for whatever was coming my way, and had me laughing when that was the last thing I wanted to do. Scott came recommended to me by a family friend, and we will absolutely be recommending him going forward. He checks all the boxes when it comes to needing help during divorce and mediation. Can’t thank him enough!

JES

"Additionally, he made sure that I received everything I was entitled to. I sought him out because he was highly recommended by other women who used him for mediation (I was originally going to hire him as a mediator, but my ex didn't want to go that route,"

Scott is the best of the best. I went through a painful, long, drawn-out divorce, and my ex-husband played with my heart and my head. I so easily could have been manipulated and taken advantage of, but Scott stood by me from the beginning, every step of the way. Whatever my needs were at any given moment, whether it was legal, hooking me up with a needed adjunct professional, or just giving emotional support (and telling me to breathe), Scott was my man. I truly would never have gotten through it without him. He walked me through many processes that I was unfamiliar with and wasn’t comfortable with until he knew that I understood. He was compassionate and professional and did his best to streamline our lengthy process (our fault, not his) to keep costs as low as he could for me. Additionally, he made sure that I received everything I was entitled to. I sought him out because he was highly recommended by other women who used him for mediation (I was originally going to hire him as a mediator, but my ex didn’t want to go that route, so he became my lawyer), and I’m so glad I did. Thank you, Scott!!

He invested a great deal of time, passion, and care, and was there for me every single time I needed him. He truly lived up to his reputation of professionalism: high emotional intelligence, ability to relate, smart/proactive aggressive ideas, and helped me to develop complex legal awareness along the way. He really made me feel like I was his only client, making the effort to remember appropriate personal details.

Highly recommend him!!

He was extremely caring about not only my welfare but paid special attention to what was best for my children, both legally and emotionally. What impressed me the most was his natural tendency to provide timely and thoughtful replies regarding individual issues while also thinking about the big picture by providing a rational perspective during a difficult time. I honestly don’t think I could have had a better person by my side, and would highly encourage others to speak with Scott as he really made me feel like I was his only client and not just another case folder on his desk. I could not be more satisfied!!!!

I was recently represented by Brian Martel in my divorce proceedings, and I am very pleased with not only the results achieved but also the manner in which he represented me.

ANTONIO

"Besides his abundance of family law experience, Brian is an involved father, which made it easier to discuss sensitive parenting time and custody issues. There's no need to explain. He just gets it. I strongly recommend Brian for all family law cases, but Brian Martel represented me in my recent divorce."

Brian is calm, reasonable, and experienced. He was very helpful in setting realistic expectations and served as the voice of reason during a difficult and emotional time. I always felt well prepared for court dates and mediation. Outcomes were always as Brian said they would be.By contrast, I found the opposing counsel to be extremely unprofessional — and, at times, disrespectful. Brian was able to manage my stresses and knew which battles to pick. This made the process easier and reduced the number of costly arguments that would have had little to no impact on the overall case. It was very clear that he is well-liked and respected among his peers and everyone at the courthouse.Fees are obviously a big part of the divorce equation, and Brian was very honest and upfront about costs and fees. He kept me updated and did a lot of cost/benefit analysis throughout the entire process. There were never any surprises in my bills, and everything was always clearly documented.Besides his abundance of family law experience, Brian is an involved father, which made it easier to discuss sensitive parenting time and custody issues. There’s no need to explain. He just gets it. I strongly recommend Brian for all family law cases, but especially those that involve young children.

"With Brian, you have found the right advocate for you and your children— the one who listens to what you want, advises you well, and has your best interest at heart."

Having been through a turbulent marriage and difficult divorce from a narcissistic partner, Brian held my hand and gave me strength and hope throughout the divorce process. He has the legal knowledge and experience you need- he helps you understand the process, communicates and negotiates well, and is experienced in the court system. Brian is knowledgeable, responsive, and compassionate. He is an attorney you trust and feel comfortable with. Brian was a strong advocate for my children and me. He recognized the importance of my children and put them first in the legal process. Even after the divorce was finalized several months ago, Brian continues to advise me on how to co-parent with someone who is extremely difficult and also helps all of us cope through a very hard transition in our lives. With Brian, you have found the right advocate for you and your children— the one who listens to what you want, advises you well, and has your best interest at heart. I feel very fortunate to have found Brian as my attorney.
