Class B Misdemeanor

I hired Mr. Stone to represent me in court and I'm so glad I made that call. I was charged with negligently providing alcohol to a minor at an outdoor concert. I had never received more than a speeding ticket in my life and knew I would need help addressing this charge in court. Mr. Stone explained t...he court process and all my options to me. He also worked tirelessly on my behalf for nearly 5 months to make sure the DA had all the correct information on my case so I could get the most fair and accurate outcome. I'm pleased with the results from court and would hire Mr. Stone again if I ever needed his services. (Which I hope I never do ;) )

Fantastic Attorney

Edward was able to navigate my case and how it fit in with my cases and throughout provided insightful suggestions to have it all fit together. Edward was quick to understand the situation and the merits of the case and formulated the strategy and needed arguments to bring it to a successful close... without having to go to trial. Edwards abilities and connections with all other parties allowed us to move quickly and be taken seriously. Throughout my case of 12 months I spoke with many other individuals going through what I was going through, all of these people asked who was my criminal case attorney and all of them said, I wish I would have had Edward Stone on my side. He is highly respected and effective in the Law Community. I highly recommend Edward Stone to anyone needing an attorney.

Parental Interference

Edward was able to navigate my case and how it fit in with my custody cases and throughout provided insightful suggestions to have it all fit together. Edward was quick to understand the situation and the merits of the case and formulated the strategy and needed arguments to bring it to a success...ful close without having to go to trial. Edwards abilities and connections with all other parties allowed us to move quickly and be taken seriously. Throughout my case of 6+ months I spoke with many other attorneys and legal professionals for my family court case, all of these professionals ask who was my criminal case attorney and all of them said Edward was really good. He is highly respected and effective. I highly recommend Edward.

Awesome attorney!

I wanted to share my positive experience working with Mr Edward Stone. I have used other attorneys in past and had bad experiences. They didn't communicate well and kept continuing my case for a year. Talk about stressful. So when I needed to hire another attorney I talked to several and after tal...king to Mr Stone I decided to hire him. Mr Stone was very knowledgeable with extensive experience and estaished relationship in the justice system. He was able to get my case dismissed before trail. Thank you again for all your help.

Outstanding attorney!

I had an outstanding experience with this knowledgeable attorney. I had a case that would have resulted in losing my security clearance, and, as a result, my career for the past 25 years. Edward carefully reviewed the facts, the law, and ran over the prosecutor in court and got the case dismissed. ... I and my family are eternally grateful Edward!
