Martha is outstanding. She's a deeply integrated woman with a confident grasp on all the legal-technical knowledge required to create the type of estate plans I needed for my blended family and my small business. She also has the heart and grounded presence to really explain things in a way that made sense, felt clear and brought relief at the deep, existential level very few lawyers have the skillfulness to touch. Thank you Martha. My life is significantly better from working with you. I can't recommend you enough!

Ms. Watkins has to be the best I have ever seen when it comes to fighting for you and not backing down until you have the best possible outcome! She truly cares and obviously loves to help people- this makes her a seriously special attorney. I was facing jail and a long miserable future in the justice system and she saved me from that! She fought to keep me out of jail and at home with my family and she did it! If you are stuck and facing criminal charges please hire this woman, I promise you will not regret it.

It is hard to know where to begin when trying to put into words how incredible Jennifer Watkins is not only as an attorney but as a person. Jennifer goes above and beyond for all of her clients and their families. Jennifer represented my partner for a DUI case and was always quick to respond to any question or concern he or I had. But, rather than give a one word response and move on as most in her profession are want to do, Jennifer took the time to make sure that we understood the answer. Jennifer deeply cares about her clients and fiercely advocates for them inside and outside of the court. I am forever grateful for her service, kindness, and support. I highly recommend Jennifer Watkins.

If you only read the first sentence of this review, and I were to describe Jennifer Watkins work in one word it would be "effective"; however, I assure you that she deserves thousands more positive words. Recently I found myself facing a severe traffic charge that put my license in jeopardy. After many days of researching lawyers in the Denver area, I had found one lawyer whose reviews not only regarded her as highly intelligent, but as showing a genuine interest in getting to know her clients. I called Jennifer and was surprised when she personally picked up the phone. I discussed the details of my case with her and immediately knew my search was over. No longer did I feel like I was facing this terrifying charge alone, but was being expertly guided by a very knowledgeable friend. Jennifer told me exactly what I needed to do to receive an optimal outcome, which was not a whole lot, and she did the rest. Between the first day I contacted Jennifer and the day of court, she was responsive any time I reached out to her, constantly putting my mind at ease and answering any questions I had. Jennifer was able to schedule my court date at my convenience and when that day came her preparation and confidence helped me remain calm. She navigated the courtroom with expertise and turned my potential license suspension into a 4 point ticket with $100 fine. I owe Jennifer my sincere thanks for allowing me to maintain my life as I know it despite making a mistake. Not only did we achieve a better outcome than I ever anticipated, but I thoroughly enjoyed working with Jennifer throughout the entire process. Whatever charge you are facing you will be much better off facing it with Jennifer.

Martha is down to earth, real, and not a stick-up-the-you-know-what lawyer type. She tells it like it is and is very helpful in a comfortable atmosphere. We felt as good as we possibly could when doing the tough job of estate planning and wills. She was great!

I used Wendi for my estate planning needs. Honestly I did not know much about trusts, medical directives, living wills and other forms. Wendi took the time to explain things to me, sometimes over and over again, never making me feel stupid. I trust Wendi and feel that I can always reach out to her if I have questions in the future. – S.S.

Martha was amazing throughout the whole process - educated, knowledgeable, and caring. Her estate planning was brilliant, and she worked with all of my financial advisors to make sure everything went smoothly.

Excellent guidance through something you don't want to think about, but needs to be done. Helped us to understand make sense of all aspects of estate planning with care and patience. Highly recommended!!!

Martha, and the entire team at Hartney Law, made the seemingly overwhelming and complicated legal process of establishing an estate plan simple and enjoyable. We told ourselves for years that it was something we needed to do but never did because of how daunting it seemed. Martha makes the process straightforward and approachable with the added services of a Family Emergency plan and Legacy video. I slept better the very next night knowing that my family wouldn't be burdened with the unknown in a time of need.

Over the course of last spring and summer, our family got the royal treatment with Hartney Law. Martha and her staff are incredibly knowledgeable about estate planning and setting up Living Wills and Trusts. Now we feel confident that our family is taken care of; that really gives us peace of mind. The piece of the planning that really served as a cherry on top of the sundae was the Illumination Interview in which we shared important oral history about our families. At first, the price seems a bit steep to take care of this, but in the end it's very worth it to ensure that our assets will be taken care of in the event of something happening to one of us.

Martha was fantastic and the estate planning process with her was informative and enjoyable. Highly recommended!

Jennifer Watkins was a huge resource to me from the very first time we spoke on the phone. Her knowledge and experience handling DUI cases specifically in Colorado became apparent immediately. As someone who had never had a DUI before, facing the increasingly severe court system seemed nearly impossible. However, Jennifer worked with me to navigate the legal landscape and guided me through the entire process. She made me feel like I was her only client in the way she handled my case with so much skill, care and attention to detail. She was always available to answer any questions I had before, during and even after my case. Jennifer made my situation less scary and overwhelming and successfully helped me achieve the best possible outcome in my case. I highly recommend attorney Jennifer Watkins.
