Career

Stanley concentrates his practice on high-stakes and appellate litigation throughout the federal and state court systems, with a focus on legal strategy, motion practice and appeals. He has handled appeals at the U.S. Courts of Appeals for the Fifth, Tenth, Eleventh Circuits and in appellate courts in Alabama, Texas, Wisconsin, and Maine, and also represents clients at the United States Supreme Court.

Although his practice focuses on appellate litigation and legal strategy, Stanley is no stranger to the trial court. He often has served as an embedded “appellate lawyer at trial,” with responsibility for briefing dispositive motions, Daubert and Frye motions, and motions in limine, and for handling and arguing various evidentiary and legal issues arising over the course of trial. Stanley also has extensive experience in handling post-trial motions. He has litigated cases across the substantive spectrum, including pharmaceutical product liability, non-compete violations, commercial breach of contract, fraud, and securities fraud.
