About Raul
Raul Martinez grew up academically inclined and followed a steady path to the law. He completed his undergraduate studies at Santa Clara University in 2008, then earned a J.D. from Golden Gate University School of Law in 2012. His academic background placed him squarely within California’s legal community.
He began his professional career after law school and rose through the ranks at a firm that later changed its name. Today he serves as a lawyer and partner at Cramer & Martinez, LLP, a firm that was formerly known as Robbins Strunk & Cramer. Colleagues describe him as practical and direct in the way he handles cases, preferring clear strategies over flourish.
Martinez is licensed to practice in California. He maintains professional ties through membership in the California Applicant Lawyer Association. That affiliation suggests an engagement with a network of practitioners who deal with matters affecting applicants, though his work at the firm touches on the day-to-day business of representing clients in state matters.
Throughout his career he has balanced client work with the internal demands of partnership. As a partner he handles case intake, client counseling and courtroom work when matters require it. He also participates in firm management decisions alongside fellow partners, helping to shape how the practice operates and how resources are allocated.
Outside of firm responsibilities, Martinez’s path reflects a typical trajectory for lawyers who remain rooted in a single jurisdiction. His training at Golden Gate University School of Law and Santa Clara University provided the foundation for litigation and transactional work. He continues to draw on that training in advising clients and preparing matters for court or negotiation.
People who contact him can expect a straightforward approach. He tends to address the practical legal questions clients bring and map out the steps needed to move matters forward. He is based in California and represents clients through the offices of Cramer & Martinez, LLP.
His current practice focuses on representing clients at Cramer & Martinez, LLP in California.
