Stanley Allen Bastian's Peer Endorsements

I endorse this lawyer. I have known Stan for many years as his law firm has represented me, yes lawyers hire lawyers, often in real estate matters. Most of my experience has been with Stan as the defense attorney representing the PUD or a county against which I have brought a personal injury suit. More recently, I have hired him to represent our law firm in a suit which was brought by an employee we discharged. He is the ultimate professional, he is bright, aggressive, analytical, and, I believe most important of all, he cares about the story brought to the lawsuit by both parties. Listening is a skill not practiced by all attorneys, and by listening he can better represent his clients because he can understand both sides of the case. Ultimately, you can be assured, he will be your advocate for your cause. I can offer no greater endorsement than by stating it is for the reasons set out in this note that I hired him to represent our law firm, and why I respect him as a a lawyer.

I have known Stan for over 30 years, as we went to law school together, worked together for several years, and both continue to practice law in the same community. He is a tough, practical and dedicated lawyer who has an incredibly broad range of trial experience. You would be hard-pressed to find a better lawyer to work on any tough trial matters you may have.

He is a tough, but practical, adversary. We were able to reach a resolution that was in the best interest of all parties. I believe his clients are well-served, and lucky, to have him as their lawyer.
