Great Attorney

My experience with Mr. Stanley was amazing. He was professional, honest, he was swift with communication, he was very informative and always patient. I had lots of questions, he always made the time to answer via email or a phone call. He was very thorough in explaining the process and what to expect.... He fought for me, and left no rock unturned. He went over our options and I walked away from this incident, very pleased!

Excellent Attorney

Joe Stanley is an excellent attorney. I appreciate him taking the time to listen to my concerns and for taking my case. He is very professional and genuinely cares about his clients. He was very responsive anytime I had a question about my case. I would highly recommend him.

Professional lawyer who actually answers his phone

Joseph Stanley represented me after I was hit by a car while driving. I had not done anything correctly or called the police, an ambulance, he really had to go out of his way to settle my case. Despite how aggravating it must have been he was always very respectful and polite. He answered every email... and returned every call in a reasonable time until I had my compensation and felt it was resolved. He gives lawyers a good name by being a kind and patient person who really makes you feel like your case is just as important as any other one he may be handling. I recommend him highly to anyone seeking legal help.

Excellent Attorney

Joe is a great lawyer both criminal and civil. Me and family have used him for some years , and we couldn’t have asked for better representation. I would refer him to anyone in need of an attorney.

Dedicated and Dependable

I was involved in a car accident April of 2017, my car was totaled in the accident I was without my own transportation although I was not at fault, I was given a traffic violation which I had to show up to court for. After I had the accident I was afraid and unsure what to do. So it was my Mom who re...commended Schwartz and Schwartz Attorneys at law, I made an appointment Joseph Stanley was hired as my attorney and even though there was no settlement in my case (other driver unavailable) Joe was still available even when my case was closed I got a notice to appear in court Joe met me there and even gave me a ride back, (the court was 30-45 minutes away) he was very knowledgeable about my issue and was helpful in answering legal questions for other people waiting for court I was extremely glad I had him there and enjoyed watching others line up to ask him question after question he’s a awesome attorney and a great person.

  • 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.
