Building on experience gained at two highly regarded law firms over the past 35 years, I decided to start my own law firm, Manuel A. Martinez Law, to serve clients in business litigation and other sophisticated, high-stakes legal matters.
Licensed to practice law in California since 1984, I am proud to report that my credentials and effectiveness have been widely recognized. I was selected for inclusion in California Super Lawyers every year between 2018 and 2021. I have earned numerous awards and honors, including selection by The Best Lawyers in America in commercial litigation for the past three years.

Bay Area Lawyer Magazine listed me on its Top Lawyers in the Bay Area list. I was also recognized by TopVerdict.com on its Top 100 Settlements in California list in 2017.
Not every business, commercial or real estate dispute leads to a courtroom battle. My written appeals have a strong track record, along with other types of legal actions that I pursue on behalf of my diverse business and professional clients, such as:
From my law office in Piedmont, I serve a wide variety of individuals and organizations in the San Francisco Bay Area. This dynamic region presents many legal challenges for my clients. My primary focus is on representing them in state and federal courts with business, corporate, and commercial real estate cases.
I regularly achieve success in cases before jury and bench trials as well as arbitrations and through summary judgment and other dispositive motions. I am admitted to practice before all California State Courts, the U.S. District Courts in the Northern, Central and Southern Districts in California as well as before the U.S. Courts of Appeals for the 8th and 9th Circuits.
My law practice combines efficiency with meticulous attention to detail and a focus on results. Recognizing that the bottom line is critical in the world of business, I do all that I can to minimize unnecessary billing. At the same time, I hold myself to a very high standard in all my litigation work. I also am fiercely loyal to my clients.
