Martin Chitwood, Esq.

Martin Chitwood has been one of the nation’s most successful litigators, and he has been able to accomplish this while working in areas of law that are considered to be among the most esoteric and challenging. From an early stage in his career, Martin Chitwood recognized that to distinguish himself from other talented litigators he would have to develop special areas of expertise. He also realized that for his niche expertise to be most valuable, it would need to be in areas of law that many considered to be the most complex.

To be an accomplished litigator in a particular field, there are two fundamental areas of law the practitioner must master. The first is the substantive law, and the second is the procedural law. Because of his background and interests, Mr. Chitwood chose to pursue securities litigation as the substantive area in which he would develop his expertise, and class actions as the procedural area in which he would practice. Both of these areas are considered to be among the most difficult and challenging in which to be successful. Not many attorneys have attempted to develop a practice that requires special knowledge and skills in both securities law and class actions.

Despite the complexities of the practice areas he chose, Martin Chitwood has been able to develop the requisite skills in each area, and by proving himself in such esoteric and challenging environments, he has been able to establish a national reputation as a successful securities class action litigator.
