New 5.0-star Review: "My experience working with Brett was extremely positive. He gave me his phone number the first time we met and said I could call anytime I had questions. Anytime I reached out to him he responded promptly. He was really good at explaining things in a way that was easy to understand, and always asked for my opinions when making decisions. He was also able to get me a great outcome, and I can't recommend Brett enough"

New 5.0-star Review: "I hired bret to represent me in my legal case and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. When it was time to go to work Bret rolled up his sleeves and took care of business always going above and beyond every step of the way. After 6 months of going back and forth with the D.A and court date after court date the D.A dismissed my case thanks to Bret’s knowledge and hard work and outstanding skills in the court room. I’ve been represented by many attorneys before in my past and I’ve always felt like most are just after the money but I can honestly say this firm is different it was worth every penny! Even after my case was dismissed Bret made sure to file the motions and put in the work To have it expunged and sealed from my record. (I had a different attorney from a different law firm representing me in the same case Bret and his firm took over I fired my first attorney the day before trial because I didn’t feel confident and the D.A wasn’t backing down six month later Bret got the case dismissed) Thank you again Bret I appreciate everything you have done!!!"

New 5.0-star Review: "I am incredibly grateful to my attorney Alyssa. From our very first phone call, she gave me an immense sense of peace and friendliness. She treated me with absolute respect, completely free of any judgment or discrimination. During the most confusing and dark moments of facing charges for the first time, she stood like a beacon of light, guiding the way forward for me. Throughout the case, Alyssa constantly kept me updated with every detail she learned and answered all my questions with endless patience—completely redefining my perception of a traditional lawyer. She is exceptionally professional and strategic, helping me complete the necessary prerequisites well before the court date to secure a significantly mitigated and favorable outcome. She was truly a lifesaver for me during this difficult time. I cannot thank her enough and highly recommend her services to anyone in need of an outstanding defense attorney!"

New 5.0-star Review: "I cannot say enough positive things about my experience with Jacob E. Martinez Law Firm, especially Tyler Selcer. In December, I was wrongfully charged and detained and found myself facing a domestic violence case. I was terrified that this situation would follow me for the rest of my life and end up on my record. I reached out to numerous law firms, but Tyler was the first person who immediately made me feel like I actually had someone in my corner. My father initially told me, "Just get a public defender and take whatever deal they give you." Tyler showed me that I had a reason to fight and that my case deserved to be fought. He put up a tremendous fight through what felt like the most difficult battle I had ever faced. Even when the odds seemed overwhelmingly against us, Tyler never stopped working to prove my innocence and present my side of the story to the City of Denver. At the time, I also didn't have the financial ability to pay the firm everything upfront. Tyler assured me that the office would work with me and allow partial payments throughout the case. That understanding and compassion meant a lot to me during an already incredibly stressful time. Tyler is a young, talented, dedicated attorney and, from my experience, someone who genuinely cares about his clients. He ultimately got my case completely dismissed and closed, and I will forever be grateful for the work he put into my case. I cannot thank Tyler and the Jacob E. Martinez Law Firm enough for the incredible service, dedication, and support they provided me. If you ever find yourself in a situation similar to mine, I highly recommend consulting with this firm, and I would strongly suggest asking to be connected with Tyler Selcer. Thank you, Tyler, for believing in me and fighting for me when I needed it most. It truly made a difference."
