We were a defendant in a frivolous federal lawsuit that was filed against us. Not knowing where to turn we wanted to make sure we had the best lawyer representing our company. Mr. Stanton was recommended to us as an incredible business lawyer in Tampa FL from other business professionals. Mr. Stanton walked us through the entire process and advised us of the pros and cons to every decision we made. We held our ground and ended up with a case that was dismissed. We are completely satisfied with the work provided by Stanton Cronin Law Group and we plan on keeping our retainer active so we can call them with any questions or problems that may arise in the future.

Michael Stanton helped me set up my pet sitting business' legal requirements. He was easily accessible by phone or email, and he answered every question promptly. He was professional, as well as personable, and detail-oriented,too. He recognized my needs, and he always made me feel like I was an important client. I would highly recommend Mike to anyone in need of a Business Attorney.
