thankful

Very good lawyer, and honest about what the outcome of your case could be. He got my charge reduced, I walked out with no points on my licences and a reduced fine. I will use him again if needed...

GREAT

Ben was fantastic legal representation for my complex case. He fought hard in the courtroom and was very impressive and always very professional. Gave us the best outcome and all charges were eventually dropped. Extremely happy and so thankful for Ben and his team. Would highly recommend.

He’s a magician

Mr Stanton is in my opinion the best lawyer money can buy here’s why. I was arrested and charged with possession with intent along with 4 other misdemeanors somehow Mr Stanton was able to work out a favorable deal in which I have to pay $100 fine and a summary charge. If that wasn’t enough I also Re...tained Mr Stanton for another case where I was charged with 2 traffic tickets and 4 misdemeanors, again he miraculously worked out a deal to drop all misdemeanors and plead down to traffic tickets. If you need a lawyer I suggest you get the best and give me Stanton a call.

TOP DEFENSE ATTORNEY

I Would Whole-Heartedly Recommend Ben Stanton for a Retained Attorney. He is not only a hired Lawyer, He treats you as if You are Family. His manner and professionalism in and out of court is admirable, I am more than satisfied and relieved He is our Attorney! Very grateful for his time and knowledge... of the court system, He has helped us more than he will ever know! Thanks to Attorney Stanton, My Son had charges dropped, not once, but twice on same case! He is Definitely The Lawyer You Need/Want!

  • 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.
