Martinez & Farmer LLP has been ranked in Chambers USA 2026 for Litigation: General Commercial (Washington)—a distinction earned just one year after the firm’s founding.
The recognition is notable for an emerging boutique. Chambers rankings are built on independent, in-depth interviews with clients and peers, and inclusion typically follows years of sustained market presence. Martinez & Farmer secured a department ranking in its first year of eligibility, with both founding partners recognized individually: Tyler Farmer ranked for the ninth consecutive year, and Ariel Martinez recognized as “Up and Coming.”
In its review, Chambers describes the firm as a boutique litigation practice building a strong reputation for handling complex technology, intellectual property, and corporate disputes and investigations, sought out by clients in the real estate and technology sectors as well as international corporations for its Washington litigation capabilities. Among the matters highlighted, the firm successfully defended the Upper Skagit Indian Tribe in litigation enforcing the Tribe’s treaty fishing rights.
Client feedback gathered by Chambers emphasized the partners’ hands-on approach—a hallmark of the firm’s model, in which the founders remain directly engaged in every matter. One respondent described the team as efficient, prepared, and genuinely good to work with.
Martinez & Farmer LLP is a litigation firm based in Seattle. It was founded by longtime partners from Harrigan Leyh Farmer & Thomsen LLP.
