Horrible man!

Takes your money and runs. He was very rude to me and my family. He tells you one thing and then claims he never said it. Never got to see him or hear from him until my court dates and gets angry and rude everytime I turn down the deal. Forcing me to make a decision while I'm not on my mental health ...medication. He does not fight for you at all!!!!

Saved my life...

Bar none...An attorney at the top of his field. Honest, trustworthy, passionate, compassionate, reasonable, highly experienced at trials. He helped save me from imprisonment due to my accusers lies and false allegations. Schneider goes above and beyond...You can entrust your life to him...I did...and... won!

Criminal defense lawyer | May 13

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Stan is a master legal strategist. I had the pleasure of working down the hall from him in Houston. He was always ready to lend a hand or offer very solid advice. Once I was defending a very difficult murder case and Stan spent many hours helping me hone the argument, walk through the evidence, and create a solid defense strategy. He is naturally gifted in this regard but doesn’t rest on that gift. He is one of most honorable and hard working people I know in any field. I miss working with him and would recommend him to anyone charged with any crime."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I know Stan and I have tried cases & won cases with him. Stan is a fine strategist. In trial, Stan's knowledge of the law and his confidence shine. He will not abide prosecutorial misconduct and he is quick to jump on it. Stan's ability to turn a state's expert into a defense expert is a thing to behold. Stan is creative and more concerned with obtaining the right results than most lawyers I have known."

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"Stanley is a great lawyer that always thinks outside the box. He is what I call a lawyers' lawyer. If a lawyer was arrested in Texas and you ask them who they would hire.... the answer is Stanley Schneider. I worked for him as an associate lawyer for close to 4 years and the knowledge I gained was invaluable. He is a wiz at not only criminal trial cases but also in handling appeals. In addition to being and outstanding lawyer, he is a well respected member of the community."
