Rating:Not Rated
Comments:
Great Judge but her judicial assistant is terrible to work with. Very condescending and thinks she is a know it all.

Prosecutor

Comment #: FL4991
Rating:6.0
Comments:
Very polite and courteous judge. However, avoids trial at all costs. Pro-defense nine out of ten times, which is why criminal defense lawyers love her.

I knew Martha as a prosecutor, and she is as fair on the bench as she was when prosecuting. What an awesome judge. First of all, she really cares (or, seems to, either way, I'm happy). She reminds me of Judge Hawker Simpson, or Judge Freeman, two of the best county court judges ever. It is a pleasure to be in her courtroom, even when things don't go your way she is kind and courteous. Orange County is lucky to have her!
