I highly recommend Mr. Stanton for anyone in need of a truly dedicated lawyer. After another attorney poorly handled my case, resulting in convictions, Mr. Stanton took over and made significant strides in turning things around. He re-opened my case, addressing past errors with precision and care.

What impresses me the most is how quickly he responds to any communication. He consistently replies within 10-20 minutes, offering clear and insightful advice, which has been incredibly comforting throughout this challenging process.

Mr. Stanton isn't just professional; he's a passionate advocate who deeply cares about achieving justice for his clients. He goes above and beyond to ensure the best possible outcome. Trust me, with Mr. Stanton by your side you're in excellent hands. He's the best lawyer I've ever worked with and has my utmost gratitude for his relentless dedication and expertise.

I called his office at 9:00 a.m. and his paralegal answer the phone and explain that he had court that morning and that he would call me as soon as he got out and he did exactly that ! I explained my case and he answered all of my questions with great confidence. Before we ended our call he gave me some personal advice that I took as him being a genuine decent person that cared for his clients.

I retained Mr. Stanton for very serious charge that could have resulted in many years of prison time. Mr. Stanton put me and my family at ease from the very start. He talked to us in his office on a Saturday. He was always available to talk to myself and my family when we had questions or concerns. He was able to get my charges reduced to a misdemeanor without jail time. If you need an attorney that will put his best effort into your case. Will is the right person for you.
