Very approachable. Common Sense advice

Stacey is very knowledgeable of the law and the local courts. Most down to earth lawyer I've ever met. She will review your case, give solid advice and will not recommend proceeding unless it makes sense and is in your best interests. I'd recommend her to anybody.

Great Lawyer!!

Stacey is fantastic. She represented me in a family matter recently and was everything I'd hoped for in a lawyer: knowledgeable, aggressive, timely in all matters, and compassionate. She gave sound advice and achieved the outcome I was hoping for in my case. I really appreciated her empathy and e...ncouragement in such an emotional situation. I would absolutely recommend her.

A Savior

I would highly recommend Attorney Stacey Frias. She continuously guided me through a sticky divorce battle of almost two years. The beginning was an unexpected blow which left me raw with emotion. Stacey's unwavering calm and expertise rescued me. Not just to advise what was best legally, but also ...helping to guide me in pulling my life back together and to feel confident on my own. In the beginning during a mediation she was so calm and composed that I wondered if she was up to the challenge of my ex-husband's Lawyer, which seemed to be coming for my jugular, he obviously was heated and frazzled, as Stacey remained cool as a cucumber, extremely professional all the while with a bright smile on her face. I am happy to say that Stacey put any doubts I had to rest. And I came out of the chaos to the otherside a better person. She respected my opinions in what I felt was right based on my own principals and fought hard for me, even if she didn't wholeheartedly agree with it. But what sticks out in my mind, A day she gave me some of the best advice which I'm sure I will continue to apply long from now. In a concilliation with the ex, call me crazy, but I expected 'him' to do what was just, what would be best for our son, and when he didn't I was infuriated. Stacey looked at me, told me she understood how upset I was, and said: 'You cannot expect this man to show up here today a better person than he's always been' , her perspective and calm demeaner and wisdom made me look at things differently. The old me probably would've stormed out of there and cried all the way home. Instead, I composed myself and remembered, I don't have to get emotional and fight with this man anymore, that's up to the professionals we hired. And I was confident I had the right one in my corner.
