Bio

Mary Martinelli, a Certified Family Law Specialist*, leads one of the largest family law practices in California, representing clients in sophisticated custody matters, and high-stakes property matters that include estates valued at hundreds of millions of dollars.

A fierce, compassionate advocate and relentless trial attorney, Mary leaves no stone unturned. Her in-depth analysis of the most intricate legal issues, fused with her deep, knowledge and strategic synthesis of family case law have earned her the highest rating (AV) from Martindale Hubbell.

Exuberant and supportive, Mary is highly respected for her caring, responsive devotion to her clients, and the financial and custodial outcomes she develops on their behalf.

In fact, Mary’s work has set legal precedent. LaBass vs. Munsee for which Mary was prevailing trial counsel, is now long-established case law precedent for the principle of imputing income based on ability to earn.
