Patient and Understanding

I retained Mr. Andrew Stoll for my daughter who was a victim of domestic violence. Her then boyfriend had my daughter arrested 6 times on false charges of harassment. Mr. Stoll had many, many conference calls with me and my daughter explaining the law and what to expect at the next court hearing (s...), which made us comfortable knowing what was going to happen next. His expertise, patience, getting subpoena's and getting my daughter a not guilty all 6 times is why I would hire and recommend Mr. Andrew Brian Stoll. Even after my daughter's cases were all closed, Mr. Stoll was kind enough to give us a heads up that my daughter's x boyfriend was harassing the ADA to get my daughter arrested again. Mr. Stoll was about to go on vacation when this occurred and told us what was going on and not to worry because the ADA knew that the x boyfriend was feeding the ADA false information. Mr. Stoll told us, not to hesitate if an issue should occur, he told us that he would call one of his partners to handle it. It is very unsettling when your child is being accused of a crime that she did not do, Mr. Stoll was very understanding of this, and always answered my calls and emails promptly and respectfully.

A GREAT LAWYER TO WORK WITH

My name is Andrew B., while I was growing up all I ever did was be harassed and violated physically by the officers of the NYPD. I recall one day which is documented in my criminal history. I went and told my mother that I was assaulted by the police and she was not really educated due to health prob...lems, so she states to me you shouldn’t have your behind in them streets. From that point on I figured that the NYPD can do whatever they want to do. I didn’t know where to go to for help because they say Moms' know best, so if she doesn’t know who am I suppose to go to for help. That was 1991. I was arrested in 2003 and I was accused of a crime of possession which nothing was recovered. I was choked and maced by NYPD’s finest during my arrest. I spoke to my attorney that I had for the case about what happened to me and that’s when I was introduced to these great attorneys for civil rights violation cases named Andrew Stoll and Leo Glickman. Once I spoke to them I felt a sense of comfort because these were people that let you know that all the things that are done to you aren’t always right and if you feel that your rights are violated you should speak about it. It’s now 2009 and I am finally awake from being asleep all these years. If I would have never been introduced to these attorneys that are great at what they stand for, I would still think it was alright for me to be stopped and frisked and not feel violated as a man. Leo and Andrew have gave me strength to overcome the fear of being afraid to speak up, because the people that are violating your rights will make you feel like they are not violating your rights as if they are just doing their job or just because they are in a position of power they make you feel hopeless. Andrew and Leo will make you feel the sense of comfortableness; you won’t feel helpless anymore because they are here to help you. They’re only just a call away. Has anyone violated your civil rights? Stoll, Glickman & Bellina are the attorneys for the job. Don’t wait until it’s too late to speak out! Get HELP! Andrew B.

The Best in Brooklyn!

I had the priveledge of knowing Mr. Stoll when he represented my son in a criminal case. Having worked with other lawyers in the past, I found Mr Stoll to be the best around. He is dligent, hard-working, and professional. He is quite approachable and he takes his times explaining the justice system t...o you. Each time I called him or his office, he would return my phone call promptly. When seeking advice from him, he truly has your best interest at heart and is not looking to settle. He is willing to fight for you and what is best for you. He is quite knowledgeable and certainly knows his stuff. On several occaisons I observed him call ing the prosecutors out on thier mistakes in the court room. My brother was very fortunate to have Mr. Stoll represent him. If you're looking for a lawyer who will take your case seriously, fight to the best of his ability for you, and knows his stuff, then Andrew Stoll is the way to go. He is the best in Brooklyn.

Excellent Attorney- produced the results that he promised

I have had negative experiences with lawyers in the past and avoid them whenever possible. When I was forced to obtain counsel due to a DUI, Mr. Stoll came highly recommended to me from another lawyer of a different specialty. I consulted a few lawyers just to be safe, and Mr. Stoll was the only on...e who was forthcoming with his prices and what kind of outcome I could expect. I was very impressed with how attentive Andrew and his team were to my needs; even when unforeseen obstacles came up which any other lawyer in my experience would have charged an extra fee, Mr. Stoll overlooked the extra work and helped me out. At one point in my case there was a foreseen negative outcome developing with a substance abuse analysis that would have cost me extra time and money and forfeiture of my car for several months, but Mr. Stoll and his team put their heads together, reviewed their past cases, and rerouted me in a different direction which didn’t cost me extra and got my car back by the end of the week. In my experience, when you give a lawyer a flat fee and they take your money and they are less eager to produce a positive outcome, so I was very impressed with the lengths Andrew and his team went through to produce a positive result for my case. They never avoided my calls (and in the beginning I called several times a day for updates given my past experiences) and kept me posted on new developments. Finally in the end, when he could have taken more of my money to follow up on the case (which I would have done if he recommended since I have no idea how the process works), he was honest and said that I could handle everything from that point on and it was my option, but not totally necessary, to retain him as my attorney for the rest of the process. I will definitely use Mr. Stoll and his team again should the need arise, and I recommend him to anyone who should need counsel within his expertise.

"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."
