Background

Veronica Martinez co-founded Fortress Family Law in 2026 after serving as managing attorney and director of litigation at CNL Law Firm. She has practiced family law exclusively since her admission to the Colorado bar in 2011, and her client reviews average a perfect five stars on Avvo, where she holds a 10.0 Superb rating and a Client’s Choice Award.

Her practice spans the full arc of domestic relations: dissolution of marriage, allocation of parental responsibilities, child support, spousal maintenance, property division, post-decree modifications, and protection orders. She also helps clients protect their financial futures with prenuptial and postnuptial agreements.

Veronica earned her Juris Doctor from the University of Denver Sturm College of Law in 2011 and her Bachelor of Arts in history and political science from Colorado College in 2007. During law school she interned with the Denver Public Defender’s Office and the Judge Advocate General’s office at Buckley Air Force Base, experience that sharpened the courtroom instincts she brings to contested hearings.

She was named to Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch in 2022 and 2023 and is an active member of the Colorado Bar Association and the Arapahoe County Bar Association. Her clients describe the same pattern again and again: thorough preparation, honest guidance, and a steady presence in the hardest moments.

Veronica is the BEST in her field... I am lucky to know her

Veronica Martinez has represented me for the last three to four years in ongoing custody matters. Veronica's knowledge, compassion, and dedication are unmatched. During my four years of working with Veronica, she has taught me how to represent myself in the future to save money. She has shown compassion and love towards my family and truly cares about what is best for my daughter. I really could not ask for a better lawyer with such exceptional values for integrity, kindness, and professionalism. I don't want to think about where my daughter would be without Veronica having my back and working tirelessly to do right by my child. Veronica is simply the best in her field. I will always use her for future cases and always recommend her for any legal needs.

Caring professional

Veronica Martinez is a thorough professional. Her knowledge of the law is only matched by her incredible hard work and her compassionate care for her client. Throughout her representation she was in constant contact with me and truly did look out for my best interest. Never once did I ever feel neglected or my case did not matter. Her guidance in my case truly gave me peace of mind. If it wasn't for Veronica Martinez I simply do not know what I would have done. I would not hesitate to hire Veronica Martinez again if I needed Council, she is Simply the Best.

★★★★★Ryan · Hired Attorney · January 29, 2020

Highly Recommend!

Having zero knowledge about the legal side of divorce, I didn’t even know where to begin. After my initial interview meeting with Veronica and her firm, I decided that they would be the best choice. I chose wisely. Veronica quickly developed a level of trust with me, and in return, I developed a level of confidence with her. She was professional, thorough, and always readily available to educate me when I had questions. I could not have chosen a better attorney to represent me and I highly recommend her.
