This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Lazy, unorganized, inexperienced

The absolute laziest and least motivated lawyer I have ever seen. Pathetic. Had no advice, plan, defense, or desire to help

Don't hire him. Find someone who is better.

He doesn't answer his phone, texts nor emails nor his office phone. He told me to do a owi class stating it was correct one, but after I did it and payed $600 for the class he fell off the face of the earth. Also the class I took was apparently the wrong one and I had to serve time in jail because of... it.

Excellent representation

Mr Stengl evaluated my daughters case and made prudent decisions to obtain supporting testimonies. His cross examinations focused on the weak areas of the plaintiff and succeeded in defending the case and obtaining the desired outcome. I've read reviews that criticize his returning calls and I hone...stly say he literally leaves one courtroom to another with no time between. Just show up prepared yourself with everything you possibly think he may need to defend you.

“Amazing lawyer”

Answer your phone for once. At least return one call. Been trying to reach out to you for months and you never returned a single call. We get lawyers are busy people but so is everyone. Horrible experience with this dude. Save your time people

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2024.

Reprimand issued in IA, 2024

updated on 06/13/2024

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
