About Martin G.
Martin G. Weinberg has spent more than five decades in the legal world. He earned a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Wisconsin 3Madison in 1968. Three years later he received his J.D. from Harvard Law School. Those academic credentials set the stage for a long career in criminal law and appellate practice.
He moved into private practice soon after law school. By 1975 he was a partner at Oteri, Weinberg, & Lawson, P.A., a role that placed him at the center of a busy litigation practice. Over the next two decades he combined courtroom work and appellate filings, building a docket that included trial defenses and appeals across state and federal forums.
In 1997 he founded Martin G. Weinberg, P.C. That step gave him an independent platform for the next chapter of his career. The firm carries his name and reflects his years of courtroom experience. He has continued to handle criminal matters and related appellate issues from that base.
Weinberg is admitted to practice in Massachusetts and before the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. He is also admitted to practice before the United States Supreme Court. Those admissions have allowed him to pursue appeals and represent clients at multiple levels of the federal judiciary.
Outside of casework he has long been involved in professional associations. He holds membership in the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. Since 1994 he has served as co-chair of the NACDL Lawyer Assistance Strike Force. That role has kept him engaged in efforts within the profession to address lawyer wellness and support initiatives aimed at members of the bar.
Colleagues describe Weinberg as an attorney who prefers to let work speak for itself. He is known within courtroom circles for steady preparation and attention to procedural detail. His practice over the years has combined trial advocacy with appellate briefing and oral argument in a range of criminal matters.
Today he continues to practice through Martin G. Weinberg, P.C. He represents clients in criminal cases at trial and on appeal, and he remains active in professional work related to lawyer assistance and the criminal defense bar.
