Excellent Lawyer and person!

Pat Stangl and his team are worth every penny they ask from you to handle your case! I do not live in WI, however, I did get into trouble while working up there. After talking to a couple local lawyers and not feeling good about what they were telling me and advising me to do I Googled " Best Lawyers... in Wisconsin ", and that's how I came across Stangl Law Offices. Pat actually called me on a Sunday, which is amazing in itself, and after an hour long conversation I felt much better and decided to hire Pat to represent me and handle my case. He knew the laws inside and out and every recommendation was correct and spot on, him and Sharon handled everything for me. Him and his team dove into my case, found some cracks, and in 2 1/2 months charges were dropped! I owe my current situation and livelihood to Pat and the team Of Stangl Law! I highly recommend them! 5 STARS!

Out-of-State Warrant

I had an excellent experience working with Attorney Patrick Stengel. From the very beginning, I was facing an out-of-state warrant, and he was able to have the warrant removed and arrange a court date. This gave me the time I needed to travel to Wisconsin and take care of the situation without the ...stress and risk of having an active warrant hanging over me. Throughout my case, Patrick was professional, knowledgeable, and truly dedicated. He explained every step of the process, answered my questions clearly, and made sure I understood all my options. Because I was from out of state, Patrick made the process much easier by handling many of the court appearances on my behalf, only requiring me to attend the most important dates. This saved me time, travel, and stress, while he kept me fully informed along the way. Yes, his services are expensive, but you truly get what you pay for—and his expertise and results made him absolutely worth hiring. His preparation, courtroom presence, and commitment gave me confidence, and the outcome he achieved was far better than I expected. If you’re looking for a skilled, trustworthy criminal defense lawyer in Dane County, I highly recommend Patrick Stengel. He genuinely cares about his clients and goes above and beyond to provide the best representation

OWI 1st Offense And Several Other Tickets With A CDL

I have a CDL and was pulled over in my personal car for my first OWI offence. I also received tickets for open intoxicant, over .15, seat belt, and failure to come to a complete stop at a stop sign. I called a friend who had previously had his OWI dropped to a reckless driving and asked him who he us...ed. It was Patrick Stangl. So, on Monday I called Mr. Stangl's office, met with him on Tuesday, paid his fee, left his office, and never had to meet with him again. After 7 or 8 phone calls over a 2 1/2-year span he called me saying the municipality's lawyer was willing to drop everything if I accepted a reckless driving charge. This was the best outcome I could hope for having a CDL, other than walking out of a court room with nothing LOL. In all seriousness though Mr. Stangl and his team did a fantastic job and worked very hard representing me. Thank You Mr. Stangl.

OWI & Other Charges

I hired Pat for my OWI and drug charge case. Pat is very professional, demonstrated great knowledge of OWI & other laws in Wisconsin and genuinely wanted to get the best outcome for my case. He promptly answered all of the questions I had along the way and made me feel like my case was no less impor...tant than others he was working on. He handled my entire case and was able to get me the best possible outcome given the circumstances. Very thankful for him and his team for the time and effort put into my case.

OWI 1st Offense

I researched a lot of attorneys before making my decision to call Pat, but after reading reviews like mine, reading through the wealth of information on his website, and watching his videos, the decision was easy. This was my first time going through a situation like this and he answered my many que...stions promptly and helped steer me through this process. I know he's working on many cases and some more severe than mine, but he never made me feel like my case was less important. Honestly, it was the best decision I ever made. He handled the entire case and represented me throughout the case without me having to attend any court dates. He was able to get me the best outcome possible in this situation and I am very thankful for him and his team's dedication to my case!!
