Your premiere law firm across Montana. From the Rockies through the Great Plains, in all 56 Montana counties and jurisdictions, the attorneys at Judnich Law Firm are here for you. Call us when you need excellent, fierce attorneys to fight for your rights.
We practice in the areas of family law, auto accident injuries, and criminal law.
Offices in Missoula and Bozeman for your convenience. Initial consultations are always free for injury and criminal clients, and free for family law clients who hire a Judnich Law Firm attorney. After-hours appointments and online meetings are available.
When you hire our law firm to fight for you, we will not back down. We relish the blazing verbal combat of open court, and we love to pounce on people who are mistreating our clients. When you hire a Judnich Law attorney, you are hiring a fearless advocate with an unquenchable thirst for victory. With us in your corner, you can relax. We’ve got you.
We know the law inside and out. We have decades of experience and have helped hundreds of people get the justice they so richly deserve. And, we love litigation. Some of our colleagues will always try to settle their cases because they don’t like trials. Not us. Of course we will try to settle your case before going to Court. If at all possible, this is the best outcome. But when the other side isn’t voluntarily giving us the justice we have coming, we do not hesitate to haul them into Court and fight for you, for as long as it takes.
We also care deeply about our clients. We know that you come to us because you need real help. And we never lose sight of that. We proudly serve our clients with compassion and respect.
While an unfortunate number of our colleagues prey on vulnerable people in deep legal trouble who really need help, we take care of our clients in all possible ways. We know you come to us for help, and we help you as much as we can and in as many ways as we can.
Our 24/7 client portal is free to all of our clients, and one big step we’ve taken toward optimal client care.
Our 24/7 live answering service will take a message when you call after hours, and send your attorney a text immediately.
Through this state-of-the-art portal, you can access your file whenever you want. Correspondence, court documents, evidence—it’s all right there for your review. Our clients love this access, as they find it eases their minds when they can easily find out exactly what is happening in their case at any given moment.
The best attorneys are the ones who specialize. This is because honestly, the law is vast and very complex, and it changes all the time. We don’t believe it’s humanly possible to develop and maintain legitimate expertise in all areas of law at all times.
If you’ve ever visited a law library, and awed at those stacks and stacks of dusty books, you know that there is simply too much law to know it all well. But when a legal professional specializes in a couple of specific areas, that attorney can fully immerse in those areas of law, developing and maintaining true excellence and valuable experience in those very specific areas.
That’s why we specialize in specific practice areas. It makes us better. Fiercer. Sharper. More powerful. More of a force to be reckoned with. It helps us be much stronger advocates for our clients.
When your injury or loss of a loved one results from someone else’s bad driving, we can help. Do not hesitate to contact us. Initial consultation is free, and the sooner our law firm can get on board, the sooner we can alleviate your stress so you can just focus on healing. That’s what you should be doing anyway.
Your Judnich Law Firm injury attorney will deal with all of your medical records and billing departments, and help you with your vehicle repairs and lost wages. When the accident resulted in loss of life, we can get your loved one’s funeral and burial expenses covered. In this case, the Personal Representative of the decedent’s estate would need to contact us. We know how to talk to insurance representatives to make sure your needs are met. The injury attorneys at our law firm will also negotiate a fair settlement for you that not only reimburses you for your tangible losses, but also for all of your trouble in having to put up with the massive pain, suffering, and inconvenience this has brought to your life (“non-economic damages”). If no fair settlement appears, we haul them into Court in the blink of an eye. We love trials. We see the Courtroom as the gentlemen’s (and ladies’) arena, where cunning legal intellect and blitzing fiery words are the weapons of choice. We keep ours sharp.
We represent injured clients on a contingency basis, and are also very conscientious of our fees. We make sure that at settlement time, our fees don’t eat it all up. You should still end up with more than you could have negotiated on your own, even after our fees are paid.
All Judnich Law Firm attorneys represent individuals through family law proceedings. This area of law covers everything related to marriage and parentage. We help people with divorces, child custody and child support arrangements, spousal maintenance (“alimony”), paternity, adoption, marital contracts and separation agreements, and related matters.
We appreciate the sensitive nature of these kinds of proceedings, and we fight like heck to be sure things come out fairly. Ideally, no one loses in a family law proceeding of any kind. Distributions of assets and time with the children should be fair and equitable. We’re here to help make sure that happens for you and your family.
It behooves you to get us on board as soon as you possibly can, even before you separate if at all possible. Then again, if you go home after work one random day to find your locks have been changed and bank accounts cleared, that’s also an excellent time to call. Before that happens is a better time to call an attorney in our law firm, but the point is, get to us as soon as you can. Your early steps can have permanent consequences, so you need to be sure you’re stepping wisely with every move. That’s exactly why you really benefit from having a highly experienced family law attorney in your corner. We will help you navigate each step smartly, for your own long-term benefit.
Also procedural criminal matters such as misdemeanor expungement and offender registry removal.
If you have a criminal legal matter you’d like help with, give us a call. We especially help defend individuals against DUI and drug charges, but whatever sort of criminal entanglement you may find yourself in, let’s talk about it. We will help if we can. And again, anywhere in the entire state.
As with other areas of law, it’s best to contact us just as soon as you possibly can, ideally upon release from jail and before your first court appearance. There is value to already having hired an attorney when you first appear before your judge. If you miss that immediacy window, just contact us as soon as you can.
We also help with procedural matters such as misdemeanor expungement, offender registry removal, and conditional probation discharge. These matters must be conducted properly, the first time. If you’re involved in the system at this point, you can appreciate how important it is that no mistakes be made when it comes to getting your full freedom.
Each of our attorneys practices in these three areas of law, and only in these three areas of law. This exclusivity allows us to know the applicable laws in these areas inside and out.
We advocate staunchly for our clients in each area, fighting valiantly for your rights. Because we have tremendous experience in each of these areas, we know a good offer from a bad one. We’ll always recommend accepting reasonable offers—while unreasonable offers get our ire up.
The best attorneys are the ones who get angry for your injustice, and are willing to fight even the most vicious legal battles on your behalf. Our philosophy at Judnich Law is to be nice, until it’s time not to be nice. At that point, we bring the heat with our sharp suits, razor-sharp legal acumen, and sharp-edged tongues. No one will fight harder for you, and no one knows the laws of our practice areas better than the attorneys at Judnich Law Office.
Let us get started helping you right away.
When you hire an advocate to negotiate on your behalf and fight for you in Court when necessary, you want someone who knows exactly what they are doing. Someone who is ready with up-to-the-minute changes in an applicable law on the tip of their tongue, ready to argue vociferously on your behalf.
This way, you will get the absolute best possible outcome that your particular set of circumstances allows. We will make sure of it. Owing to the years of experience of the attorneys in our law firm, we know what is possible given the facts of your specific case, and we won’t stop until we get there. No matter what it takes.
Judnich Law Firm attorneys take utmost pride in serving our clients to achieve the best possible outcomes for them. This is an integral part of our professional reputation. A couple of them have said nice things about us.
Marty is very knowledgeable, and very up to date with the intricacies of the law. My DUI charge was reduced, and the reckless driving charge was dropped. He was able to arrange the minimum penalties for my reduced charge. Mr. Judnich is well respected in the legal community, and this is a great asset for his clients. I do not hesitate to give Martin Judnich my highest recommendation. He is truly Missoula’s best.
Sue McCay
Marty has represented me in a state case as well as Federal and both came to great conclusions. Marty and his team went above and beyond for me, and were always willing and able to offer a helping hand no matter how small or big. Marty was able to explain things to me in a way I could always understand and always available to answer any questions I had. But most importantly Marty always treated me as a person, he made me feel like everything would be ok. I highly recommend Marty and his team you will not be disappointed.
