Ceiba Fôrte’s fees adapt to the needs of every client—especially for hardworking Hispanics, foreigners, expats, transplants, and other immigrants. Foreign clients and companies prefer us because we offer alternative fee arrangements like flat fees, contingency, and hybrids.
We specialize in lawsuits, counterclaims, crossclaims, and third-party complaints before federal and state courts or tribunals. However, it is always better to prevent these because they can be costly. We also give the option to attend a mediation to resolve the conflict or problem in a private, confidential, and faster way.

Who is Inti?
Inti Martínez-Alemán is a third-gen lawyer and fourth-gen businessowner. His paternal grandfather was the renowned lawyer and notary José Marcos Martínez Rodríguez of San Miguel, El Salvador. His mother was the famous Honduran lawyer and notary Judith Alemán Banegas, a native of Tocoa, Colón yet based in Tegucigalpa. In short, being a lawyer runs in Inti’s blood — six decades of professional legal services in the family.
Inti is bilingual and has been practicing law since 2008. He is a Honduran residing in St. Paul, Minnesota, with offices in this city, and in Buffalo, New York. In May 2016, he graduated from Mitchell Hamline School of Law (before: Hamline University School of Law) with a Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree, after receiving a full scholarship for his studies.
Prior to studying law in the US, Inti obtained his first law degree (abogado) from the Universidad Tecnológica Centroamericana (UNITEC) in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. There he practiced law for 5 years representing clients in cases of national impact and coverage. Inti was also the Legal Counsel for the Chief of Staff to the President of Honduras.
In 2007, Inti got his undergraduate degree (B.A.) in Political Science and Philosophy from Houghton College in Houghton, New York.
With license to practice law in the state of Minnesota, in 2016 Inti launched Ceiba Fôrte Law Firm®. In 2017, Inti obtained his license to practice law in the state of New York.
In 2019, Inti was added to the R114 Qualified Neutral roster of the Minnesota Supreme Court. Now, besides representation in litigation, Inti offers mediation services — even in Spanish.
Inti is committed to justice and equality before the law. His faith in God moves him to be a better lawyer, husband, brother, citizen, son, and neighbor. To learn more about Inti’s awards and activites, you can view Inti’s résumé here.

“I had a problem with health insurance charges. They recommended me to work with the attorney Inti. He handled my case in the best way. He is very professional and his fees are very reasonable. My case had an 'excellently great' conclusion. Of course I would hire attorney Inti again!”
Alfonso P.
"Attorney Inti explains very well all the meanings of the legal terms in our language. I haven't had difficulty in understanding. We communicate very well. The cases with which lawyer Inti has helped me have been a success!"
Ramiro M.
"I needed someone with whom I could communicate, since I speak little English. Inti speaks English and Spanish. The way he handled my case seemed very good to me. We had fluent communication and the costs are very reasonable. The lawyer is an excellent person--he helped me a lot. I'm very grateful to him. "
Gonzalo d.
"I had a delicate situation with real estate. I was recommended to work with attorney Inti because he was very professional and did not delay finishing work. He handled my case in a spectacular way. He kept me informed and cared a lot. He had a personal interest in me being calm and not making me nervous. The fees are very reasonable and my case had a pleasant result. I do not want to have problems, but if I had problems it would be Inti whom I'd hire. Apart from being very professional, Inti is a charismatic guy--easygoing and who inspires confidence. He was a source of calmness and encouragement during that uncomfortable situation."
