Biography

Michael Martens is an accomplished attorney with significant litigation experience practicing in the Hudson Valley. After graduating from George Washington University and Brooklyn Law School, he began his legal career in Manhattan and Brooklyn, working for prominent law firms before ultimately settling in New Paltz with his wife and daughter, where he worked for a highly respected Hudson Valley law firm.

Throughout his career, Michael has gained a reputation as a highly skilled litigator, representing individuals and businesses alike. He has previously served as appellate counsel and dispositive motion counsel for a prominent Manhattan litigation firm, honing his skills in complex litigation matters. He has also spent years representing commercial landlords in leasing, purchases and sales, commercial real estate litigation, and landlord-tenant matters. Michael's expertise in these areas has made him a sought-after advisor and advocate for commercial and residential landlords throughout the Hudson Valley.

In addition to the above, Michael has served as prosecutor for a local Hudson Valley area town, prosecuting traffic tickets. This experience has given him a unique perspective on defending drivers who have been issued a speeding ticket.

Michael's impressive legal skills have earned him recognition from Super Lawyers, a Thomson Reuters company, which named him a Rising Star for three consecutive years from 2021-2023. This distinction is awarded to the top 2.5% of lawyers in a given region, and it reflects Michael's dedication to excellence in his practice.
