Posted by anonymous | July 03, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Ethics & Professional Responsibility

Caveat emptor (buyer beware)

Stan sues his own clients. He plays games to benefit himself and help himself to your assets. He is hard to pin down because he can be a knowledgeable lawyer. It is just to bad that he has not been disciplined from any of the clients who have taken him to the bar. Yes, he is that slick. If only he wo...uld use if for his clients' benefit as is his ethical duty instead of for his own first. Research shows that only about 1 in 10 people who are abused report it. And the bar does not open every case, so that person who said what happened to him? Stats say almost certainly true. Several people have taken them to the bar and gotten through. What does that say to you about how many times it has happened or whether it is true? Court is too hard without someone on your side who will do their job. Much less an attorney who will allow the other side to run over you. Can you nail him down and finally hold him accountable? Do you really want to have to? My guess is that only another lawyer could do that and Stan is smart enough to not treat another lawyer like that.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
