I hired Attorney Paul Stanko based on reviews and research I’d done... and all I can say is that I was NOT disappointed, by any means. He is highly, HIGHLY knowledgeable, was reassuring from the very beginning, and has worked very closely with me regarding my case, throughout its entirety. He eased my worries from the very beginning, and I have to be honest when saying that I have had other attorneys handle cases for me in the past, and I was never more confident in someone with knowledge as Mr. Stanko. I recommend to the absolute fullest! We were able to get my case completely dropped, due to the fact of how intelligent and well educated this man is. His background is unprecedented, by far.
Mr. Stanko thank you so much!

Superlawyer for Indiana criminal cases.
Judge Stanko is a superb criminal defense lawyer. I doubt there is any criminal lawyer in South Bend with as much experience or as great a standing in the courts. I know he treated me with kindness, dignity and respect (and even welcome humor during stressful times). I recommend him without hesitation!

EXCELLENT AND EFFECTIVE ATTORNEY

Paul quickly responded to my call to be my attorney and having me released from custody. Paul’s experience of the legal process and system was very impressive and comforting to my family and me. I would highly recommend you call Paul Stanko for any legal help.

I have one word that describes Lawyer Paul Stanko: AWESOME! He did an awesome job on our case. He did it with such ease. I think his expertise and past background as a superior court judge earns him great respect and he is able to get amazing deals with prosecutors. He made it all so easy. I would recommend him to all! Thank you, Paul!

Attorney Stanko is a highly qualified attorney for a variety of counties in NW Indiana. My law firm refers cases to him in counties we do not cover. Our firm is very selective in our referrals and therefore think highly of Attorney Stanko's abilities. With Paul as your attorney, you are getting intelligent, professional, and high quality representation.

Results that saved my son's academic career! If you need effective representation, attorney Stanko IS for you!

Great lawyer. He helped me avoid charges that would have ruined my life and career. He really knows his stuff and is clearly very respected in the courtroom. He got me a deal better than anything I expected, and was a great resource along the way whenever I had any questions during the process. I’d recommend him to anyone.

No substitute for experience!

When my Daughter got into trouble while attending college, I was frantic to find an experienced Indiana criminal lawyer to help. I got hold of Judge Stanko on a weekend and he returned my call within hours. His calm reassurance and professionalism eased my mind immediately. He arranged for a diversion, and a year later my daughter's case was dismissed. I cannot overemphasize how important it is to find an experienced lawyer when your child's future is at stake!

Paul is the one you need!

Want to thank Paul for the outstanding job he did as my attorney. I myself thought the case went very well in our parts as he worked and did a terrific job with coming up with an agreement and settlement for me in my case. I am grateful I hired him and will hire him if I need him in the future! He was precise and committed to making sure I knew all the information and steps I needed to take by staying in communication and connection. Even as his wife was in the hospital for multiple weeks and him getting physically hurt himself was able to get the task and or job done. Want to thank you again for the efforts and actions you have taken for me Paul !

I found myself in an unexpected legal situation. Paul's knowledge of the law and my case produced a favorable outcome. My family and I are ecstatic with the results. My life and livelihood were kept intact. Should I ever need legal representation again I will definitely call Paul Stanko. I would recommend him to everyone.

I hired Paul for a ticket in 2015. When I asked him about the ticket he told me not to worry he handled it. Today 4 years later I received a letter from the BMV stating that my license was suspended due to non payment. The court said they do not mail anything out and that someone was there for my court dates. I can’t pay these fees that Paul did not make me aware of until Friday! I am super upset with this guy DO NOT TRUST HIM!!!! You were handling a criminal case and also stated that you would handle the ticket, the criminal case was in Freeze courtroom. I NEVER knew anything pertaining to the ticket you just told me not to worry about it!

Mr. Stanko did a great job on my case. This was my second felony growing Marijuana and he got me Misdemeanor sentencing with no jail time. I received only one year probation and he has helped with follow up problems quickly. He is a genuinely thoughtful and caring person that helped put my fears at bay during a very scary time for me. His pricing was even lower than the so called big names. I've had other lawyers in the past, they seemed only to care about how much they could get out of me under a stressful time. I seriously couldn't recommend him more.
