Paul Stockyj, Attorney at Law

Paul Stockyj is an honorable man who puts forth the best effort he can to defend his clients. One of his more notable characteristics is that he understands the stress that a proceeding can have on a family and is empathic about the experience for everyone. He is an attorney that is not afraid to collaborate with others, understanding that he may or may not see everything, and that shows that he has great humility as a leader and an attorney at law in professional practice. I would recommend consulting with him to ensure that he is the right fit for you. He is transparent in telling you what he can and cannot due to protect the privacy of his clients, which is extremely important to the defense of a case. He is not only an attorney, but a man that should be valued and respected for his service in the field of law.

Paul Stockyj is a phenomenal attorney. From the 1st time I talked with him I was already feeling confident and less stressed out about my case. His rate was extremely affordable considering my situation. He lived up to every single thing he had discussed with me and with all his advice and his hard work , I was given the best possible plea deal. Mr. Stockyj came through with everything he told me he would. I really appreciate all the time and effort he put into my case. I also want to give his assistant Don a good word. Don is extremely friendly and also made me feel comfortable and less stressed about my situation. All in all I am extremely grateful and very happy I chose Mr. Stockyj as my attorney. I would not hesitate to call on him again if I ever needed. I am confident in his ability to represent me or anyone else for that matter. His more than 30 yrs experience definitely shows. He was very well respected by every one we interacted with in the court system. Thank you very much Mr. Paul Stockyj. I really appreciate all you did for me.

I was very iffy at first with Paul, but he came through for me. I already had a record & was terrified for my case (small charge, but felons tend to be treated badly). My case wasn't dismissed, but he got me the lowest thing possible. THANK YOU! I will recommend you to anyone that might need a lawyer, & if need be for myself to get old things expunged. Thank you again, sir! Ava thanks you as well!

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME. I have already filed complaints with the American Bar Association, the Attorney General & stopped payment on the last check for his "services," but the googling public NEEDS to know: I just met Paul this year. He was supposed to handle a license restoral & a $56 bench warrant out of 40th District Court. Paul will PROMISE ANYTHING to get your money. The old bait & switch technique. Got me for $700 of $1000 on the FIRST VISIT. He will tell you that he "handles cases like this all the time" or "just handled a similar, *far more serious case* just last week," it's ALL LIES. HE DOES NOT. He HAS NOT, CANNOT, in 6+ months, restore a drivers license, handle closing old cases or represent you for a misdemeanor, let alone handle a felony case, despite his claims. You will have to contact MSP, pull your record for $50 & then Sec of State & restore it yourself FOR $125 while he makes excuses, claiming you just need to provide a "certified copy" of your driving record so he can request a "certifcate of judgement" & continues billing you for his "services." Neither of these are necessary. One look into his office, circa 1960, should have been my indication that this is not a well-maintained or profitable law firm. He even went so far as to scold my 3 year old (special needs) son for running a plastic matchbox car across the top of his delipidated faux wood desk. When he does show up for court, on time, if at all, he is an unprepared, sweaty, bumbling, baffoon, not well versed on your case. He deliberately asks the court for more time, so that he can bill you for an additional visit. Paul's neglect, deliberate lack of communication and preparation cost me THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS & almost jail time!! Don't expect case updates because you will not get that. He will not return your calls or emails. God forbid, you're a WOMAN & any time, you call him out on his obvious unprofessionalism or assert yourself, you will find Paul has quite a temper. NOBODY wants to deal w 300lb, sweaty, Grandpa screaming at at the top of their lungs, over the phone, outside of the court building because he's a no-show, again. It is 2023 Your attorney should be your biggest advocate. Your clients SHOULD NOT BE EDUCATING YOU ON NEW PAROLE & PROBATION LAWS PASSED IN 2021, aka Michigan SB 1050. WE USE COMPUTERS & THE INTERNET NOW. Get with the program. Stop assuming your clients are as uneducated as you are useless.

Found paul through a friend who he had also helped tremendously. Paul fought for me from the first day! He was fairly priced and was able to get my felony case dismissed!! Im so grateful and am recommending him to everyone. Ill never go through another court proceeding whatsoever without paul next to me. He saved my life today. Thank you mr stockyj!
