MENINGITIS FOUNDATON OF AMERICAN, INC
Ryan P. Martin Golf Tournament
Tom believes in giving back to the community and helping causes important to him and his clients. The DeVoto Law Firm has been an annual sponsor of the Ryan P. Martin Golf Tournament since its inception in 2009. Tom became involved when his client Courtney Martin lost her 14-month old son Ryan to undiagnosed bacterial Meningitis. Determined that no other mother would suffer such a loss, Martin devoted her time to awareness and fund raising for the Meningitis Foundation of America campaign. In 2009, Martin created the Ryan P. Martin Golf Tournament to raise awareness and funds for the MFA. Each year The DeVoto Law Firm sponsors one of the holes on the course as well as at least two four-man team to play in the tournament. The Ryan P. Martin Golf Tournament is one of the MFA’s largest and most successful fund raisers. Courtney Martin joined the MFA’s national board in 2011 and now serves as the MFA’s Vice President. She represented the U.S. MFA in the Confederation of Meningitis Organizations for World Meningitis Day in Paris, France. To see more about Tom’s involvement please check out the pictures below.

Testimonials
Tom has represented me on a couple of matters.. Two worker's compensation cases and the accidents that caused my work injuries. He handled my cases quickly and efficiently and although they were not big cases he handled them like they were important cases. If any of my friends or co-workers get injured, I always give them Tom's name.
- O.B.
I was in an industrial accident, stairway collapse, and Tom handled my case against the owner of the building. When the topic of settlement came up before the start of the trial the defense lawyer mentioned a small amount, Later, Tom and I were in the elevator with the defense lawyer and Tom looked at him and said, you're going down. Watching Tom try my case and object and control the evidence was great. The jury gave Tom every single penny that he asked for. Tom and I stay in touch. I call him Big Tom.
