Ty Martinez, ESQ

Practicing criminal defense in the Los Angeles, Orange County, and Inland Empire areas, I represent and defend many good people every single day who are facing extremely tough criminal charges. Why? Because I know what it is like to be falsely accused. I know what it’s like to be stereotyped and harassed by the police.

Growing up in Southern California, and spending the majority of my time at the beach, I was frequently contacted by the police. Whether I was pulled over in my car, or approached on the boardwalk in San Diego, police officers seemed to want to stop and ask me questions, fishing for evidence of criminal activity.

Fortunately, nothing ever became of those contacts. However, it did leave me with a lasting impression of police officers, the amount of power they have over us, and how I felt when confronted by them.

I attended Loyola Law School in Los Angeles and was fortunate to receive a full tuition scholarship. Courses involving criminal procedure, evidence, and constitutional rights immediately appealed to me. I finished up law school, passed the bar in 1999, and began my career as a criminal defense and DUI attorney in Riverside.

Whether your case involves a misdemeanor DUI, or violent strike felony, I will aggressively attack the prosecution's case in order to achieve the best possible results. Positive results come from demonstrating to the prosecutors the potential flaws in their cases. This is achieved by diligently handling your case; thoroughly reviewing your police report; contacting important witnesses; obtaining copies of video and audio statements/ and or surveillance tapes; researching case law that supports your position; and contacting the District Attorney's Office to discuss charges being dropped or reduced. Ultimately, positive results come from hard work.

It is a privilege to be able to help people when they need help most. Our goal is to get you the results you desire. Furthermore, honesty and integrity are the pillars of my practice. I will never tell a potential client what he or she wants to hear in order to get his or her business. If you want an honest and fair evaluation of your case, and aggressive representation for a reasonable fee, then call my office. I look forwarding to hearing your story, and fighting for the justice you deserve.
