Criminal Defense

We needed advice and representation quickly. Mr. Stanley was prompt in his reply to our request and knowledgeable about the process and the steps to move forward. He made us feel that we finally had someone working on our behalf. It was very easy to talk with this attorney, he was genuine in his des...ire to help the situation. So glad we hired him!

Highly Recommend

I highly recommend Kent Stanley for legal representation. Mr. Stanley was very detailed in explaining all my options when I was facing criminal charges. I had never faced criminal charges in the past and was not versed in the legal system. I appreciated the time he took with answering all of my qu...estions (there were many) and was always very prompt in answering phone calls. Facing any type of criminal charges is a serious issue and will negatively impact your life in many ways. It is important that you find a lawyer who is going to take your case seriously and work with you to resolve what the best outcome may be for you. I feel that Mr. Stanley did that for me and I am confident that my case was resolved with the best outcome possible.

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.
