"Martha Dwyer is a first class attorney whose work is excellent. As a banker, I am always looking for value for money - Ms. Dwyer has consistently performed very well. She recently handled a complicated work-out for me, negotiating and re-negotiating construction agreements, handling budgets and overseeing local bankruptcy counsel. Her attention to detail, dedication and creative approaches to obscure aspects of contracts and oft time difficult business situations, in addition to her no nonsense approach to business, have proven invaluable. In short, the quality of her work has been first rate and my employers have benefited immensely from her expertise. Having worked with Ms. Dwyer for over ten years, I can highly recommend her work."

"Thanks again for the help. It's been a refreshing change to work with a lawyer who gets things done, makes specific recommendations, and is even fun to work with."

"Martha Dwyer saved my farm. She was hired to coordinate the work of an attorney who was representing me in bankruptcy and my divorce attorney, both areas in which she does not specialize. She established a relationship with these attorneys and got them to work as a team in a matter of days; all by phone. She inspired them to think outside of the box and come up with creative solutions. She maximized each attorney's expertise and deftly communicated our strategy. When issues came up outside their expertise, she drew upon her own network and had answers overnight. During months of litigation Marty's attention to detail and unfailing support held the team together against all odds. Marty's personal commitment cemented a strong relationship with me, my family, my legal team and my community of supporters. She was not afraid to stay on top of me as a client to follow through and make tough decisions. She achieved the miraculous because she believes in what she is doing and makes miracles happen."

"Ms. Dwyer represented Natural Gas Partners LLC ('NGP') from its inception in 1988 until 1994 when in-house counsel was hired to reflect the growth of the firm. She managed the documentation process and was an important negotiator during the creation of NGP's first two investment funds, dealing with sophisticated representatives of major investment institutions resulting in the commitment of over $200 million. She is both creative and meticulous in fulfilling her role. NGP has continued to employ significant portions of the documents she crafted in its six subsequent investment funds, which amount to an additional $2.7 billion of investment commitments."

"Ms Dwyer worked on a number of transactions for GR Foods prior to the time the business was sold. Her work was always efficient and focused on the key items without spending inordinate time on legal minutiae that can eat up so much of a legal bill. She knew how to get a deal completed."

J Eric Hanson
President GR Foods (at that time)

"Ms. Dwyer represented us in the sale of our software business to Unisys, a Fortune 500 firm. She is highly capable, detail-oriented, creative, diligent, responsive, and easy to work with. Marty did a great job balancing posture with diplomacy during tough negotiations. She also brought in highly talented associates specializing in taxation and litigation as we needed to consider complex tax aspects and enforceability of certain legal language. I wholeheartedly recommend Marty for all general business legal matters, and certainly for M&A requirements."
