About Joseph C.
Joseph C. Huttemann graduated from Bucknell University in 1988 and earned his J.D. from Dickinson School of Law in 1992. He built his legal foundation during those years of study, then moved into full-time practice in Pennsylvania. The curriculum and clinics at Dickinson shaped his approach to trial work and administrative hearings.
He began his career in the state where he continues to practice. Over time he joined the firm now listed as Martin Law and rose to the role of partner. At the firm he handles contested matters that require courtroom presence and administrative advocacy. Colleagues describe him as steady under pressure and exacting in preparation.
Huttemann holds certifications that reflect two distinct practice areas. He is a Pennsylvania Workers' Compensation Certified Specialist as recognized by the Pennsylvania State Bar Association. He also is a Veterans Benefits Certified Specialist from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Those credentials indicate additional training and examinations beyond basic licensure.
His professional affiliations are long-standing. He is a member of the Pennsylvania Bar Association, the Philadelphia Bar Association, the Pennsylvania Trial Lawyers Association, and the Philadelphia Trial Lawyers Association. Since 2010 he has served on the Board of Governors of the Pennsylvania Association for Justice, a role he continues to hold. Those memberships keep him engaged in local and statewide legal conversations, from legislative developments to procedural practice changes.
In practice Huttemann has combined claims advocacy and benefits representation. He has represented claimants in administrative hearings, pursued appeals where appropriate, and advised clients on procedural options. His day-to-day work often involves preparing testimony, gathering medical and vocational evidence, and presenting cases before judges and hearing officers.
Outside the courtroom he participates in bar activities and committee work tied to workers' compensation and veterans' benefits. He contributes to professional discussions and attends continuing legal education programs to maintain his certifications. He maintains his practice in Pennsylvania and works from the Martin Law office, handling workers' compensation and veterans' benefits matters for clients across the state.
