About Slovak Baron Empey Murphy & Pinkney LLP

SBEMP LLP is a full service law firm with offices in Palm Springs, Orange County, San Diego, New Jersey, and New York.

Slovak Baron Empey Murphy & Pinkney LLP was founded in 1994. The founding members had been partners in the largest law firm in the Inland Empire, each with over fifteen years of experience and a proven track record of substantial success. They formed their own firm to concentrate exclusively on providing clients with superior legal representation and first-class service at competitive pricing. The firm has continued that success and built a strong reputation in both complex litigation and transactional matters.

The foundation of the firm is hard work, creative and aggressive advocacy, and an unwavering focus on the needs of the client. Our goal in every matter is to achieve the best possible result in a cost-efficient manner. We have found that, in the litigation context, the best results are often achieved when the opposition knows that we are prepared to try a case. Our partners have successfully tried over 100 cases to judgment or verdict, as well as having participated in hundreds of arbitrations and alternative dispute resolution proceedings. More often than not, this expertise leads to favorable settlements without the necessity of trial.

The firm has negotiated and closed over 500 complex business and real estate transactions totaling over a billion dollars throughout the United States. The firm's unique transactional portfolio includes public and private companies, in addition to local, state and federal governments and regulatory agencies.

In advising and representing our clients, we emphasize understanding their business so we can help identify solutions that make business as well as legal sense for the company or individual. Many of our attorneys have grown up or spent most of their lives in the Coachella Valley. Their long-term community involvement gives the firm unique access to the area's business, political and community leaders.

Hired Law Firm

My family had a complex conservatorship case regarding my autistic brother. Nancy Tragarz was our lawyer. She did an amazing job for us and won us the case. She went above and beyond what was expected. She is empathetic, professional and really good at her job. Not only did the judge reverse the previous order but the counterparty had to pay us too. An amazing lawyer and good human being. You will not regret it if you choose Nancy.

Hired Attorney Carolyn Martino

Carolyn Holt Martino was wonderful to work with. She is knowledgeable and understands the nuances of family law. I felt assured that I was in capable hands. Moreover, Ms. Martino cares about her clients. I have not found this level of dedication and compassion with any other attorney. I never felt like I was being "nickel and dimed," or that I was just another source of money.

Hired Attorney Carolyn Martino

I would recommend Carolyn. She is an excellent attorney who obviously loves her profession. Her ability to write and communicate about legal matters is impressive. Carolyn showed 100% commitment in her participation in a traumatic and complex case which involved separate court hearings. She demonstrated great compassion, intelligence and professionalism.

Ms. Martino took on a highly complex matter on my behalf and guided me through what was one of the most contentious situations of any bad divorce. She was balanced and steady and offered sage advice every step of the way. Nobody wins in a divorce, but Ms. Martino made sure that I was protected. Strong, ethical advocate even when facing brutal tactics.
