Atty. John Currier
25+ years ago, I was a young law school graduate fresh out of the University of Nebraska. When I stood at a pay phone in Kenedy, Texas to learn that I had passed the Texas Bar, I never could have imagined the variety of people I would meet, the interesting cases in which I would be involved, or the unbelievable feeling of winning a jury verdict.

- Ernie Martin is uniquely qualified in that area of law and has been a pioneer in the field of collaborative divorce, which seeks to reach an agreement without resorting to litigation
- Our philosophy has always been to do what is best for the client
- This means educating our clients about the law and how it applies to their particular set of facts
- Most of the time, the client is best served through cool headed, strategic negotiation and chess-game posturing to reach an agreement favorable to the client
- Sometimes, however, it is necessary to fight to protect my clients’ interests
- Should you become one of my clients, know this
