Efficient and Effective

I was referred to Ms. Stancil by a trusted advisor. My case was related to a ticket/fine for a wildlife violation that I felt I should not have received. Ms. Stancil reviewed my case, discussed my options with me and gave me a reasonable estimate of my cost in time and money to get to a range of re...sults. Ultimately, the advice and guidance were very accurately portrayed and through a great understanding of the law and procedures, Ms. Stancil achieved what I considered a very successful resolution to my case. The cost to achieve this resolution was exactly what I had anticipated due to the prior discussions. I am very satisfied with how my case came out and I highly recommend Ms. Stancil!

Truly Remarkable!

Julia Stancil was my attorney in my criminal case (2015-2016). I originally started off with attorney Tyrone Glover, and within a few months he saw it fit to add Julia as co-council. We had a meeting with her and I immediately knew that I wanted her on my team. She took on the role of preparing me to... testify, among many, many other things. She made sure that I was aware of every aspect of the case, both good and bad. She was excellent at working with me to find answers that we needed. Along with being great on the legal side, Julia gave great support throughout the whole process. She was very passionate about the case and it showed a lot during trial. She did an absolutely amazing job at building up the case for the jury. During closing, she strategically pointed out all the reasonable doubts in a way that made the prosecution's story sound flat out illogical. The verdict came back within 30 minutes of closings. Not guilty on all charges. It became obvious to me that it was more than just a case to her once we all had a cry of joy afterwards. Julia Stancil is an amazing attorney and I am truly grateful to her.

One of the best trial attorney's in the state of Colorado

If you are looking for an attorney in the Denver area you cannot go wrong with Julia Stancil. In 2014 I was charged with a class 3 felony theft and I was referred to a law firm here in Denver that dealt with military issues. Julia was assigned to my case and I couldn't have gotten any luckier. I h...ave never been in any legal trouble in my life but when I imagine a trial attorney Julia is the personification of what I see. She is extremely knowledgeable, charismatic, and very well spoken. When Julia was questioning the witnesses during my trial every juror was leaning forward in their seat hanging on her every word. She knows when to be tough on a witness and when she should lay off. Julia is very professional, but she is also very down to earth. I could tell that Julia truly cared about me as a person and not just as one of her clients. Even though my trial has ended (I was found not guilty by the way, and the Jury only took 15 minutes to make its decision) Julia still calls me to see how I am doing. I think of Julia as my friend and I don't think there are that many people that can say that. Julia has since started her on law firm. If you are facing a tough legal battle and you want an attorney that will truly care about what happens to you and is not just out to make a dollar then you need to call Julia Stancil. I promise you that you will be happy that you made that call.

Great defense lawyer

Julia was hired to defend my son in law in a serious criminal trial. Because of her ability to communicate, knowing the law and how to articulate it in a court setting my son in law was found not guilty. I would definitely hire her again if I or anyone in my family needs a lawyer. Julia's rates are ...also the best as far as I am concerned.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Julia Stancil is a ferocious advocate. She provides a vigorous defense for her clients during all stages of the criminal process, but where she shines most is in trial. I have personally seen her try cases on a number of occasions, and her cross-examinations are almost surgical. She can take apart a hostile witness's testimony piece by piece. I really can't think of many other attorneys I would rather have at my side fighting for me if I was at the defendant's table. As an additional benefit, she is also just a very nice person to work with. As long as you are not opposing counsel, she is a kind-hearted, sympathetic and friendly person who really cares. Julia has my whole-hearted and full-throated endorsement."
