An excellent outcome

Andrew Stoll is an exceptional attorney. Mr. Stoll has the rare capacity to connect with a person immediately and make him feel comfortabe. He is extremely compassionate as well as knowledgeable. I was appprehensive about the situation I found myself in but Mr. Stoll explained the process completely ...and made me feel at ease. When the D.A. tried to drag out my case Mr. Stoll made some very persuasive arguments with the Judge. As a result the Judge kept the D.A. on point. Because of Mr. Stoll's efforts my case was dismissed. I have the utmost respect for Mr. Stoll and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of an attorney.

The best lawyer for the job and a good person to have on your side!

My experience with Andrew Stoll and his firm was very professional and compassionate. He was always available to me and would explain the process each step of the way. He was down to earth and treated me like a real human being and with compassion. I always knew he was working hard to win my cases an...d see that justice was served. He was the kind of lawyer who really wanted to win for you and not just settle for a plea or something else. He worked hard and even came up with creative ways to make sure I could be released without the punitive bail that was set by the judge. I found out through a friend of mine that he was the best in the business for my type of case and that was very comforting to know. On many occasions while in the courtroom before the judge he would make sure the judge was aware of the inconsistencies of the D.A's case against me and never let any thing slide by him. He was always very knowledgeable and persistent in his approach to the case and the judge. There were even times when he would be waving papers in the air arguing with the judge to see the truth of the case and not what the D.A's office had overlooked. I knew I was in good hands with Mr. Stoll and in the end he definitely earned every penny and saw to it that I was taken care of and that the outcome was positive. I am now a free man because of his hard work and diligence as a lawyer and as a human being. Mr. Stoll, hats off to you!!

In a time of dire need, Andrew Stoll was there - every step of the way!

Last year I was in serious trouble. So serious that a lifetime of decent living was in jeopardy. My reputation, my job, and my finances were trashed by an aberrational accusation that was not only hard to believe (let alone understand), but nearly impossible to deal with rationally. I needed a goo...d attorney and fast! Sometimes, the combination of 'good' and 'fast' does not work so well, but I was very lucky. Andrew Stoll was recommended to me by a highly reputable organization that I trusted. I retained him to save my 'life'. It was one of the best decisions that I ever made. Given the situation's high level of stress over a prolonged period of time, I was not the most patient nor the nicest guy with whom to deal. Andrew's calm, confident, and professional demeanor, combined with his deep knowledge of the law, was the perfect match to win the day. He recognized the need areas, strategized intelligently and executed successfully - all the while keeping me informed, answering all my questions and commiserating with my depression. I could not have asked for more. In my opinion, he is excellent at what he does and I highly recommend him.

Look no further, Andrew is the attorney you want and need

I'm a professional and have clients of my own to deal with on a regular basis so know a bit about quality client service. After researching and having consultations with other attorneys, it was pretty easy for me to pick Andrew to represent my case. Andrew's treats his clients the way people expect... to be treated. He's very responsive, explains the law in a way that's comprehensible, diligent and genuinely takes an interest in your case. Other attorneys I considered just came across as smooth talkers that only wanted my cash. I just had no level of trust with them. With Andrew, I did. When your butt, reputation and career are on the line like mine was you want the best. Andrew not only brings a personal touch, but his knowledge of the law and dedication to his clients is second to none. Don't make the mistake of picking another attorney just because they are more affordable. Like all things in life, you get what you pay for. Not all attorneys will be as great with people as Andrew is and in my case, Andrew's ability to connect with people and be persuasive definitely helped when we were negotiating with DA's office. While I hope I will never need an attorney again, if I do, I’ll go with Andrew.

When you want the BEST...Ask for him!!!!

This lawyer was wonderful. He was always available when I had questions. Always knew what was going on. He made me comfortable even when the case was tilting a little for the defendant. I can't tell you how funny he is. I love his style. He was always very calm and collective, but when it was time, ...Andrew stood in front of the judge and won my case with all his knowledge and confidence.

"I got in touch with Mr. Stoll on behalf of a client who wanted to inquire about the potential for a number of civil rights claims. Mr. Stoll was extremely professional and generous with his time. After listening to all the facts, he was honest and candid with respect to the viability of the potential claims and displayed a serious amount of knowledge of the relevant law through his discussions with me. He did not rush my client into meeting with him for a consultation or in any other way pressured my client to retain him. Though my client did not ultimately retain him due to the relative cost outweighing the probability of success, he was glad to have benefited from Mr. Stoll's time and knowledge. I highly recommend this attorney."

"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Mr. Stoll for many years. We worked together at Legal Aid Society in Brooklyn until he went into private practice. I have seen him on a regular basis since he left Legal Aid. He is very talented and one of the finest criminal attorneys that I have ever seen. He is concerned for his clients, he has very good negotiation skills and he is a great trial attorney. He gets pleas that few other lawyers are capable of getting and he wins trials that most other good attorneys would lose. He is the only attorney that I have ever endorsed and if I ever needed an attorney, I would retain him."
