Review Benjamin Stolz

Excellent Attorney

Posted by

Mr. Stolz is very knowledgeable and really takes the time to talk with his clients. He's very responsive and the best attorney I have ever worked with. I highly recommend him. He took the time to understand our situation and fought for us to the end. He is really the creme de la creme of attorneys. His paralegal, Lori, was excellent to work with as well. This is a very detailed and responsive law firm. Clearly the best of the best. You can tell they enjoy what they are doing.

The Attorney that Cares

Posted by

Benjamin Stolz takes a real interest in his clients and works hard to accomplish their best interests. Ben represented me in a bankruptcy case and guided me in dealings with the IRS. If not for Ben looking out for my welfare and sharing his concerns with me, I would have continued trusting the untrustworthy.
