Case will be dismissed after 8 months I’m glad I made the call to Mr. Stanley. He walked me through all the processes of my trial, was patient with me and all my questions, and quick to respond whenever I needed to get in contact. I don’t believe I would have gotten the outcome I did without him and is absolutely the right choice to make if you need help.

​I don't feel that it is an overstatement to say that Mr. Stanley saved my life. He was a tireless and aggressive advocate on my behalf. He doggedly pursued my case with the DA's office, highlighting all of the inconsistencies in the complaining witness statements, as well as uncovering every flaw in the case by going over every aspect of the investigation and reporting by law enforcement. In addition, Mr. Stanley demonstrated a vast amount of patience with me, as I had never been in any sort of legal trouble, whatsoever, and had an endless number of questions. Mr. Stanley empathetically answered everyone. It is incredibly rare to find an attorney who actually cares and goes the extra mile, but Mr. Stanley is just such an attorney. I highly recommend Mr. Stanley.

Domestic Violence Assault Charged DISMISSED Jim was able to achieve an extraordinary outcome in my case. To convince a prosecutor to completely dismiss a domestic violence assault case in Colorado is rare. He put together a comprehensive and compelling argument. He contacted the main witness in the case and found discrepancies in his account to the police. He repeatedly contacted the prosecutor by phone, mail and email, presenting our case and repeating his arguments to ensure he was heard. He made it clear that he would take this case to trial if it was not dismissed. Jim has a reputation with prosecutors of not backing down and taking them to trial to fight for his clients. Jim was somehow able to help me feel at ease during the most stressful time imaginable. His communication skills are off the charts. There is no need to guess what comes next or what to expect. I genuinely felt cared for throughout this whole process. His fee structure serves the client more than it serves him.

Mr. Stanley was 100% dedicated to my case. He was the most hard working, determined lawyer I have ever worked with, and I have worked with quite a few. I had 11 charges on me, 2 of which were felonies and Mr. Stanley got it down to 1 misdemeanor and got everything else dropped!! Mr. Stanley would be my FIRST choice in a lawyer anywhere around. He then worked for months after my case helping me seal my records so i can have a better, happier, easier future. Mr. Stanley is a great guy, amazing lawyer and if you need help GO TO HIM!.

Miracle Worker. I would like to express my deepest gratitude for Mr. James Stanley. I came to Mr. Stanley with an 11-year-old felony warrant, a Class 4 Felony with potentially 2 to 6 years prison. Mr. Stanley got my felony charges being dismissed and was able to get the case dropped to a misdemeanor. I got probation only and no jail! An outcome unheard-of for someone who had been at-large on a felony warrant for 11 years. A miracle! His knowledge and expertise created an extraordinary outcome that saved my career. Mr. Stanley is most gifted with his ability to navigate a complex system by creating amazing submissions to the court. His phenomenal documents to the court orchestrated an unbelievable outcome. He is one of the most gifted and effective advocates I have ever met. I was referred to Mr. Stanley by several top attorneys that I knew in the Denver area. He is well-respected as a marvelous criminal offense attorney. I unequivocally recommend this amazingly gifted attorney.

Mr. Stanley is such an amazing Attorney. I was looking at a second DUI charge in which I would receive jail time, heavy fines, and would have gotten my Massage License revoked so I would have lost my job and income. James Stanley Was so calm and supportive from the first call and through sentencing. His invaluable advice helped me get back on track with sobriety, got me into the right classes and groups that I needed, to show the courts how incredibly sorry I was. He was able to reduce my sentence to a DWAI with a very low probation sentence and no jail time! This is literally the BEST possible outcome I could have hoped for in my case. I would NOT have gotten this without Mr. Stanley. I am forever grateful for his wisdom and time. If you're are scared and lost and don't know who to turn to, James Stanley is definitely the first person to call. I hope I'll never need to but I will definitely use his services again.
