Outstanding Attorney

I am fortunate to have met Stan some 20 years ago. Since then, he has provided excellent representation from both a legal and practical perspective. He is prompt with communication, thorough in preparation and highly skilled. Let me repeat, highly skilled! While no one ever wants to hire an at...torney, if you are looking for one that has character, a broad range of experience, presents the issues, both good and bad, you will be happy that you've chosen him. He places a great deal of emphasis on trying to resolve the matter as expeditiously as possible. Thank you Stan for all that you have done for me!

Dedicated to your cause and provides excellent service

We are so grateful to have found Stanley. We are a relatively new business that needed some sound advice to help us determine the best way for us to move forward. Stanley is very personable and he makes you feel very comfortable. He listens to you and he asks the right questions to help determine ...the best solution for your situation. He makes himself available at all times, even when he’s on vacation. Stanley has a breadth of knowledge, he is fair with the time he spends with you and his fees are very reasonable for the amount of time and effort he puts forth. If you are looking for someone who makes you feel comfortable, is dedicated to your cause and provides excellent service for what you pay for, I highly recommend Stanley.

Quality representation, fair and honest billing...

Stan defended me aggressively in a civil suit, which was settled in my favor before it went to court. He is fair and honest in his billing and didn't waste a lot of time to run up the fees, as many attorneys do. He did what was necessary to get the case settled in a timely and cost effective manner. ...Also, when you call for a consultation, you speak with him, not a paralegal or clerk. I would definitely hire him again or recommend him to friends and family.

Owner - Real Estate Investment Company

I've worked with and sought counsel from many good attorneys over the years. Stan Padgett is the best attorney I've ever worked with. He's extremely sharp. He gets to the heart of a matter quicker than any attorney I've ever seen. He's a good negotiator. He's practical yet he thinks outside the... box to find resolution to issues. His skill set and legal knowledge is both broad and deep. For example, he's represented us in contract disputes, an FLSA claim, a malpractice lawsuit, a building defect claim and various HOA issues. I do not know his equal in terms of having such a depth of knowledge about such a broad array of legal issues. He's very fair in his billings. In my opinion, he is impeccably honest.

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.
