Considering the number of laws in existence, it's no surprise that many people will eventually need to enlist the services of a Wyandotte County attorney at some point or another. At Martin & Wallentine, we are adept at handling legal matters associated with family law, criminal defense and civil litigation.

Civil litigation is that area of law that deals with disputes among people where damages are sought. Civil litigation covers a broad range of issues including but not limited to: auto accidents, personal injury claims, real estate matters, workers' compensation, mortgage fraud, legal malpractice and quiet title among others. If someone is suing you or if you need to seek compensation from another party, we can help represent you throughout the process including during any arbitrations, mediations or hearings.

Skilled & Compassionate Legal Counsel in Wyandotte County

There is nothing good about facing criminal charges whether they are for domestic battery, assault, shoplifting or DUI. We can defend clients who have been charged with felony crimes or misdemeanor crimes in Kansas. With a misdemeanor crime, you face up to 1 year in jail, fines, probation, community service, and a permanent criminal record. With felonies, you potentially face from a year to life in prison, fines, victim restitution, parole, a mark on your criminal record and more. Having a top-notch lawyer defending your rights can mean the difference between going to jail or prison and maintaining your freedom.

Lawyer Serving the Residents of Wyandotte County

We also represent clients in their family law matters. Family law addresses issues involving marriage and minor children. We can help clients with legal separation, filing for divorce, child custody and support, visitation, domestic violence, adoption, fathers' rights and more.

These cases are particularly sensitive as they deal with the dissolution of a marriage and rights to your children. As a family oriented law firm, we care deeply for our clients, their families and the outcome of their cases. We are here to give you advice, guidance and legal support when you need it most.
