About Phillip Reed Martens
About Reed Martens Reed Martens is a dedicated trial lawyer and unwavering advocate for victims of sexual abuse and personal injury. Known for achieving successful verdicts and settlements, he has earned a strong reputation in the courtroom, where he has skillfully served as both lead and co-counsel on numerous cases. Championing Survivors of Sexual Abuse Helping survivors seek justice is at the heart of Reed’s practice. He approaches every case with empathy and determination, guiding victims through the legal process and holding both individuals and institutions accountable. Reed is committed to leaving no avenue unexplored in the pursuit of justice for his clients. Beyond the Courtroom Family is Reed’s greatest priority.

Outside of training, he enjoys hunting, fishing, and playing golf—pursuits that, like the practice of law, require strategy, discipline, and an unwavering drive to succeed.
