Case Dismissed. God Bless You Jim Stanley We needed a lawyer for a v serious Felony criminal case. My son was facing charges that would change his life forever. There was much to lose. We spoke to several attorney, hiring none of them. Mr. Stanley from day one, made me feel comfortable enough to share his story without judgment and giving a real sincere feeling of concern for the life of my son. I had spoken with other attorneys, either they were vague or presumptuous, giving me a sense that they were there for the pay out and didn't truly care about the life of my son. This was extremely stressful we felt hopeless. Jim Stanley took all of this away and left me with feelings of hope for the future. He's persistent and his perseverance along with his impeccable reputation as a former prosecutor, is what turned this case around. He wrote a 62-page argument to the DA demanding a dismissal. And it’s dismissed!! Thank you Jim😇

I can say with certainty that James Stanley is one of the best criminal defense attorneys in the entirety of Colorado. Mr. James Stanley works tirelessly to provide his clients with the best representation possible and his extensive experience (30+ years) is reflected by his wisdom. Unlike many criminal defense attorney's, Mr. Stanley does not BS his clients and his commitment to achieving an optimal outcome for his clients is bar none. It's important to note that James Stanley is not a miracle worker, but an extremely talented attorney with a tremendous work ethic. In order to reach that optimal outcome that every defendant seeks, it's necessary to heed Mr. Stanley's counsel and adhere closely to the pathway defined for best results. My case was extremely complicated, and my family and I are grateful for Jim Stanley's exceptional representation. Notable strengths include Rules of Evidence, Investigation, Negotiation, Litigation.

I came to Jim with a DUI charge. After months of tireless, detailed work, Jim was able to get the charges down to reckless driving, an extremely rare outcome in Colorado. It was important to me to hire an attorney who saw me not just as another paycheck, but as an individual. I had called several other attorneys, but it was only after speaking with Jim that I felt seen and heard. He asked very detailed questions, and it truly felt like he wanted to help me. He repeatedly kept in contact with the prosecutor assigned to my case, he cross-examined the police officer during one hearing so well that he was able to catch the officer in a lie. Everything he did was integral to the outcome—he left no detail unexamined, and he did it all with humility, confidence, and great care. I have absolutely no hesitation recommending James Stanley to others. He is a phenomenally talented lawyer and an even greater man. I will never be able to fully express my gratitude for his work

Domestic Violence Case Dismissed When my family was faced with a difficult and sensitive situation Jim came to the rescue. He guided us through the very challenging and frightening legal system and fought for us every step of the way. Jim was extremely responsive and understanding. He pulled out all the stops and was able to get our case dismissed. Hopefully we will never need a criminal attorney again but if we do there is only one person we will call, Jim! Thank you for your tenacity and your professionalism.

After my first conversation with Mr. Stanley, I could tell he was my best option. I felt comfort and trust with him, which can be hard to find in lawyers. I was charged with Assault in Denver. As a result of this criminal charge, I was living my life thinking I would have no future career, facing burdens of unemployment and finding places to live. Attorney James Stanley saved my life. His tedious, aggressive work saved me from a life of misery. Another great attribute about M. Stanley is he was relentless and has a tenacious work ethic. He explored every possible avenue of attack and defense on my case. We spoke about every possible outcome in my case whether it was good or bad. Due to his nonstop work and efforts, we were able to dissect the case and find numerous defects in the prosecution’s case. I appreciate the fact that Jim looked at every possible avenue we had. Due to his efforts, he was able to get my case dismissed. James Stanley saved me a life full of misery. Thank you!

I can't express how much of a blessing James Stanley and his legal representation was for my life. I was wrongfully charged with drug distribution and was facing a serious felony. I knew I needed an aggressive but also highly rated and proven attorney that would fight to get the best possible outcome. After seeing all the great reviews, meeting in person, and even still being somewhat skeptical, I chose Mr. Stanley to represent me. Fast forward a few phone calls, emails, and a couple months later - the case is completely dismissed and sealed from my record on the first court hearing!!! Thanks to Jim and all his hard work and knowledge I can finally live my life again. I highly recommend James Stanley if you need legal services for criminal defense.

The case against me for Child Abuse has been completely dismissed. I was charged with Child Abuse and the charge was devastating to me. I interviewed other attorneys and then talked to Mr. Stanley, who was recommended by another attorney. When interviewing Mr. Stanley, I was impressed with his candor and knowledge. He is a straight shooter. To build a defense, Mr. Stanley compiled character letters of me that followed a detailed format he created. The letters painted a clear picture of my character and influenced the prosecutor. Mr. Stanley monitored the District Attorney's office to see who would be assigned the case and then got an extension of the court date to build the defense of my case. Mr. Stanley kept in touch with me and kept me informed as the case progressed. I am extremely thankful for Mr. Stanley's knowledge and his understanding. He clearly knows the District Attorney's office practices and I'm sure that was helpful in obtaining the dismissal. Thank you.

Felony Assault Case Dismissed. I was charged with Felony Assault in Jefferson Cty. After speaking with several attorneys, I decided to entrust Mr. Stanley with my case. He was very thorough in our initial consultation. I was impressed with his extensive experience with the court system and felt confident in his expertise. He was in constant communication with updates and he was always very quick to reply to any of my concerns. I am so thankful that I went to Mr. Stanley. He went above and beyond to help me during this stressful time. He was able to achieve an incredible outcome, Felony Assault charge with serious bodily injury dismissed in its entirety, rare in Jefferson County! The DA Office is known for tough stance prosecutors, but Mr. Stanley put together a concise and effective argument outlining a defense, an aggressive approach, which resulted in this complete dismissal. He is an expert attorney and worth the cost. I am so grateful for all his hard work.
