Exceptional Attorney

Since our initial meeting, I knew I had come to the right attorney. Mr. Robert Stahl’s expertise, professionalism and attention to detail is second to none. Not only that but he was also genuinely concerned about my well being and that of my family. Always very accessible and a phone call away. T...hanks to Mr. Stahl’s knowledge and experience, I received a favorable outcome to my complex case. My family and I are extremely grateful and would highly recommend Mr. Stahl.

Impenetrable Defense

Bob Stahl knows what he's doing, period. He has helped me navigate a complex white collar case involving computer fraud that spanned two different districts on opposite sides of the country for almost two years. At all times I have found his advice to be clear, accurate, and helpful. It's apparent th...at he has much experience in this field as he was able to guide me to a very favorable resolution that did not involve any jail time, even though I was looking at 7+ years. If you're in a legal bind, Bob Stahl and his team are the ones to call

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I endorse this lawyer. I met Robert (Bob) Stahl about fifteen (15) years ago and was thoroughly impressed by his courtroom skills. In 2004, a long-time client of my law firm was arrested on federal drug trafficking charges and as a result his prior criminal record, the client was looking at many years behind bars. Due to Bob's vast experience in the federal criminal courts, I later asked him to join me in defending the client. As a result of Bob's continued efforts, the client eventually received a light sentence and to this very date, the client credits Bob with saving his life. Since that time, I have been blessed to work with Bob in a number of cases together and in a nutshell, he is a wonderful, experienced attorney."

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
