Posted by Gavin | November 30, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

My only regret with Todd is that I didn't call him sooner!

When I was going through the uncomfortable process of searching for a bankruptcy lawyer I ended up landing on this site. I came across Todd and read through all of his reviews. After that, I put it off for many more months until I finally scheduled an appointment. Todd was incredible, answered every ...question, and calmed all of my fears. He was there through every step of the Chapter 7 bankruptcy and he's still been helpful even after going through the process. The one piece of advice I have for you if you're reading this and considering it is to not put it off. Schedule a time to speak with Todd and get going with the process. 99% of what you're afraid of isn't going to happen and your new life is waiting for you on the other end of a simple decision.

Thank you, Gavin! I appreciate you taking the time to leave me such wonderful feedback. It was a pleasure working with you and should you need ANYTHING down the road, do not hesitate to contact me. I wish for you a wonderful holiday season and a very happy (debt-free) New Year and onward! - Todd

Didn't have to think twice.

I'll start out by saying, I tend to shy away from filling out reviews but for this guy, I will. Mr. Stoneman is a down to earth gentleman. His personality is unmatched compared to the other lawyers pertaining to his scope of practice. If you're considering taking this route whether it be 7 or 13.... Let Mr. Stoneman represent you and listen to him. If I didn't understand something, he was able to explain that subject with ease. Every time I had a question, It was answered same day. No stone was left unturned. I didn't have to think twice and neither should you.

Awesome

My wife and I hired Todd to handle our chapter 7 bankruptcy case, and we couldn't be more happy with him and his handling of our case. At all avenues before, during and after Todd gave us piece of mind and complete professional services dealing with an embarrassing and tough time in our lives. Never ...judgemental and always professional with a great sense of humor Todd Stoneman clearly deserves our thanks and gratitude. I highly recommend Mr. Stoneman for anyone looking to file bankruptcy.

The Best Bankruptcy Lawyer!

When I was going through one of the worst times in my life, Todd was one of the many bankruptcy lawyers I contacted. Not only was he the most professional, he truly cared about my situation. He knew what I was going through and filed my Chapter 7 on time! Todd is such a great human being, he's on... your side! He went through in detail of the whole bankruptcy process and what I needed to do. I was never once worried throughout the process and if I had a question I would get a straightforward answer! Todd's communication skills are off the charts, I emailed him one time with a question and I got a response back within MINUTES! If you are looking for a Bankruptcy Lawyer, then Todd is your guy. He's the real deal. Thank you again for making me happy again!

Thank you, Antonio. It was entirely my pleasure assisting you. Glad you were satisfied with my services. I ALWAYS put my clients first, and you were no exception! Appreciate the testimonial, all the best to you going forward in life. - Todd

Posted by Joan | September 19, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

I'm a Retired Senior

I read all of the reviews for Todd online before I made an appointment to see him. All of his reviews were great and I'm here to add another one. When I went in to talk to Todd about a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy I was so nervous and scared not knowing what decision to make. Immediately Todd put me at ease ...as he is so friendly and has a wonderful sense of humor. Todd is a very sincere and caring man that goes above and beyond helping. Not only did he help me on my case but I was having a storage problem on my cell phone and he was able to fix that for me! I'm a retired senior and I'm not too techie!! He was also able to set me up on a payment plan with the IRS as I tried and failed several times. After looking at all of my information Todd was able to reassure me that I would not lose my home. If you are online looking at attorneys and reading reviews, look no further. Todd is your man and I'm so thankful that I chose him and so grateful that he accepted my case. Todd is a great guy and loves helping people. You leave his office feeling like you just made a new friend.

Joan, you are a special gal. It is my greatest pleasure in doing what I do when I get to help seniors. You have that way about you which simply engenders people WANTING to hang out with you and do whatever to help. This was my view of things when I got to meet you. YOU are the one with the great sense of humor, and it likely has - and will continue to - pay dividends in your life. So happy we met! Thank you so much for leaving the kind review. See ya soon! - Todd

"Todd Stoneman is the most authentic attorney I know in Colorado. He has mastered the art form of deconstructing difficult legal problems while always making the client's needs a priority. Todd's unique personal and professional experiences prior to becoming an attorney bring vitality to an otherwise bland industry. I often refer to Todd individuals who have legal issues with bankruptcy and criminal defense in the Denver and Boulder metro areas."

Immediately I determined that Mr. Stoneman was different from many other attorneys, he was over the top nice to me (a stranger). Looking at his other reviews, he is the same with his clients. I am happy to endorse Mr. Stoneman, he is an asset to the profession."

"If you are in need of a top notch litigant then you should trust Mr. Stoneman with your matter whether it is a bankruptcy matter, criminal defense matter, or landlord tenant matter, you can rest easy knowing that you will be in good hands and have thorough representation. As we are attorneys, we do not practice in every field of law and thus, we are faced with situations where we need to refer people to different attorneys and I would not hesitate to refer people to Mr. Stoneman."

"I endorse Todd in all possible areas - not just criminal defense. If I needed to hire an attorney, I'd have no hesitation hiring him, and I can't imagine choosing to be partners with any other attorney. Todd is brilliantly smart, ethical, and enjoyable to work with. If you're looking for a personable attorney who will do everything in his power to get the best possible outcome for you - including brainstorming solutions beyond the "norm" - Todd should be your first choice. If you want a stuffy, stereotypical attorney, look elsewhere!"

"Todd is insightful and very intelligent. In smaller legal communities such as Longmont, it's important to maintain the highest level of integrity; but Todd maintains a reputation in the Metro Area community at large of being a capable and compassionate lawyer. I continue to refer clients outside of my own practice areas to him and am always confident that he will represent them with undivided loyalty."
