DAVID R. MARTIN
David Martin brings almost two decades of experience to his practice as both a defense attorney and prosecutor.
Martin began his career during his third year of law school, where he was granted temporary admission to the West Virginia Bar to practice in the West Virginia College of Law's legal clinic. There, he was committed to serving clients who could not afford an attorney, negotiating and settling consumer matters, landlord/tenant disputes, and more.
Martin continued his service to the community after graduation in 2002 as a staff attorney for Blue Ridge Legal Services, providing legal assistance to low-income residents living in the Shenandoah Valley.
In 2005, he transitioned to the Commonwealth Attorney's Office of Harrisonburg/Rockingham, where he prosecuted violent crimes. This position honed his negotiation skills and provided him with valuable knowledge of prosecution procedures. The positive relationships he forged with local prosecutors and law enforcement continue today.
More recently, Martin was a founding partner of Big Valley Law, formerly Martin, Miner, and Hahn, PLLC, where he worked tirelessly for his clients for over ten years in criminal matters and bankruptcy.
