Great Divorce Attorney

Mr Helinski was a very proactive and informative attorney for my divorce.. he set my mind at ease many times. He gave me several options for my divorce proceedings and always respected my decisions. He was always well prepared and I would highly recommend Attorney Helinski.

Department of Revenue (Clerk II)

I highly recommend Attorney Stanley D. Helinski for a child support advocate. I contacted him to help me with a retroactive child support. From our first consultation, attorney Stanley was incredibly understanding, professional, and knowledgeable. He clearly explained the entire process and answ...ered all my questions in an easy-to-understand and communication was excellent; I always received prompt responses to my e-mail and calls. Attorney Stanley helped me navigate a specific aspect of my case. Family considerations with great sensitivity and expertise. Thanks to their guidance, my estate plan is now complete, and I have peace of mind. I truly appreciate their professionalism and dedication. I would use their services again.

Exceptional Corporate Legal Counsel - Highly Recommended

Working with Stan has been an invaluable experience for our company's legal needs. From the initial consultation through ongoing support, he demonstrated exceptional expertise across multiple areas of corporate law. His guidance proved instrumental in navigating complex contract negotiations, ensurin...g regulatory compliance, and structuring key business partnerships. What sets him apart is his ability to translate complex legal concepts into practical business advice, always keeping our company's strategic objectives at the forefront. Whether handling employment matters, intellectual property concerns, or merger and acquisition due diligence, he consistently delivered thorough, timely, and cost-effective solutions. His proactive approach to identifying potential legal issues before they become problems has saved us both time and money. I particularly appreciated his responsiveness and clear communication style, making him feel like a true extension of our team rather than just outside counsel. Any business looking for comprehensive corporate legal support would be fortunate to work with such a dedicated and skilled attorney.

Compassionate and Smart. Not a TV lawyer.

Very intelligent and caring. You speak directly with him through the case and not office people. Helped me decide that it made the most sense to go to trial. He is an excellent trial attorney.
