“My boss fired me from my first job as a lawyer because I didn't fit in with the conservative culture and refused to make him coffee. So I started my own brand, where we wear whatever we want, and I kicked my old boss out of the game. The best part? He recently applied for a job at my firm. I told him that we need help to make coffee for the girls".

Një nga videot e saj, e cila është parë mbi 4 milionë herë tregon jetën e saj. Si është një ditë e avokates? Nga momenti kur rregullon flokët, deri tek zgjedhja e kostumit rozë për në gjykatë apo tek kontrolli i emaileve.


Historia e saj është edhe më interesante se kaq. Martinez u pushua nga puna e parë prej shefit të saj mashkull. Ai i kërkoi asaj t`i bënte një kafe. Ajo nuk pranoi. Dhe ai e pushoi.

Avokatja Martinez tha për BuzzFeed se krijimi i firmës së saj ka qenë një përvojë vërtet fuqizuese dhe do të thotë shumë për të që të jetë në gjendje të ngrejë lart edhe gratë e tjera. “Nuk e prisja të kisha një ndikim kaq të madh te vajzat e tjera. Kemi pasur mijëra avokate dhe profesionistë ligjore që aplikojnë për të punuar në firmën tonë. Ata gjithashtu kanë vuajtur nga diskriminimi gjinor në vendin e punës dhe duan të përqafojnë feminilitetin e tyre gjatë ushtrimit të ligjit.”

Avokatja Martinez gjithashtu ka një mesazh që dëshiron ta ndajë me gratë e tjera që po përballen me seksizmin në punë.

"There is a place for you. If your employer can't understand that women can be both smart and feminine, it's not worth your time or effort. Like many women before me, I had to open my own company to do this and I don't regret it at all."

Finally, she says she is inspired by her immigrant clients every day as she works to help protect people's rights and keep families together. She says: “I've found immigrants to be kind, humble and extremely grateful. They work hard to earn their right to citizenship and I feel privileged to be a part of that."
