Testimonials
I was falsely accused of a heinous crime, and I found Stuckle & Ferguson. They are what I would call Angels in the Flesh. They are God’s gift to Justice. They are passionate, dedicated, committed, and loyal to their clients. With their strong discovery skills, attention to detail, and their knowledge of the law, I was acquitted and found not guilty. I can honestly say that they took the time to get to know not only me, but my entire family. They are family, and from the moment they took on my case till now, 3 yrs later we are still family. Stucke & Ferguson represent Justice for the wrongfully accused.

Paul, how does it feel, not to have to burn the midnight oil on the case any more?
You opened the door to my freedom, that truly is a precious gift you have given, not only to me, but my family and extended family.
Sorry, for the delay in expressing my most humblest gratitude for saving my life. As you have already guessed, I was completely overwhelmed by your letter. Paul, you made a grown man cry, with your words of genuine care and concern and I will never forget your pearls of wisdom. Frankly, after reading your letter, I couldn't compose myself, to respond reflectively, as I should have. Please forgive me.
I hope that upon occasion you refer to this letter when, another case you are working on, isn't going so well and you are doubting why you are doing this after all these years. Just remember, Paul, you saved my life and I know that whoever you are representing, you have the sword and shield to defend your client. You are the true epitome of what a true, fair and just lawyer, is all about.
Phyllis and I are proud to call you our friend forever. God bless you Paul. Our paths will cross again, I promise.
Regards,
Brad
I had Paul Stuckle for my attorney. He is compassionate, concerned and a good listener. I felt right from the first moment, that I was in good hands. He was thorough and I could tell he was working exceedingly hard to win my case. It gave me confidence to know I had him as my attorney. He will give his all to see that the innocent person goes free. I am grateful to him and would recommend him to anyone that needs an excellent attorney to fight for them.

In early 2003, my nephew accused me of 'touching' him. Having never been accused of such a thing, I didn't know what to do. That one false accusation set off a roller coaster in my life and my family's life that we honestly didn't think we would ever recover from. After hiring an attorney that had no business representing someone falsely accused for the grand jury hearing, an indictment was returned in two different counties because of the accusations my nephew was making.
After realizing that attorney was incompetent, I went on the search for someone that knew what they were doing.
I wish I could remember his name, but one of the attorneys I interviewed told me the thing that I believe saved my life. "You know, I would love to take the case, but you really should hire someone that is specifically trained in representing people falsely accused people of THIS kind of crime... Let me get you Paul Stuckle's number." That statement changed my life, and my family's life forever.
When I met with Paul, I told him my whole story and what exactly happened -- and more importantly what didn't happen. At the end of my story, Paul looked at me and said, "Well, you convinced me... I'll do it." For the first time in this whole ordeal, I finally found someone that I thought believed me. I cannot tell you how much that gave me hope. Over the next couple years as the court system dragged their feet, Paul was in regular contact with me explaining every step of the way what was happening, and why.
Early on in the process, the prosecutor tried offering us a plea. Paul brought it to me and explained the pros and cons. I told him, "I didn't do it and I'm not accepting a plea. Ever." From then on, he never talked to me about a plea again. He respected my decision to go to trial, and never questioned me. He *truly* believed in me.
Eventually we ended up going to trial. I always felt that with Paul and Alyse sitting by my side, I was in good hands. I was right. They were able to bring out the inconsistencies in my nephew's story. Their preparation was evident in the fact that they were catching differences between what my nephew was testifying and what his prior written statements were. Even I didn't catch them all!
With Paul and Alyse's quality representation, I was acquitted of all charges in that county. The other county realizing that Paul and Alsye knew what they were doing, dropped all charges against me. Since then, I have been able to go on and open several businesses and create a successful life for myself -- something I wouldn't have been able to do with a plea or conviction on my record. Paul and Alsye were definitely my guardian angels, and I cannot ever thank them enough.

During my trial I called Paul and Alyse my Dream Team! Today I hear my daughter playing the violin and watch my son studying. Simple things that I would have missed forever if it had not been for Paul and Alyse.

If you are reading this, you are already aware of the seriousness and compromised position you are presently in. It is extremely important that you pick the correct attorney, for you and your defense team. Your decisions now, may well affect, the outcome of your trial and ultimately your life. Mr. Stuckle has been practicing and specializing in false sexual allegations in Texas for nearly three decades. He is well respected in the legal arena and personally I can attest, that Mr. Stuckle, will go the extra mile for his client. Mr. Stuckle did so for me. Whether you are in Texas or in another state, as in my case, from North Dakota, (accused of 4 counts of Gross Sexual Imposition on my daughter, facing 60 years of incarceration), Mr. Stuckle can work well with other attorneys from other states.
Mr. Stuckle is meticulous about details. He provided me with casemaps and he is a wealth of knowledge and resources, for you to win your case and prove your innocence. One thing that I would like to impress upon everyone and this has been my own personal experience; is just because you are truly innocent, that does not mean you can't be found guilty by an uncaring jury or bad judge. You will need truth, determination and Mr. Paul Stuckle, by your side, to get you through the worst time of your life. This is my testimonial from a very happy, grateful and free man, who faced up to 60 years of incarceration.

We couldn't have asked for a better lawyer to handle my husband's false accusation case. From the moment I walked in her office I knew I hired the right attorney to fight for his freedom and innocence. Alyse was very personal, and she and Dianna (her secretary) were both very kind and great with communication. I could always count on one of them to get back with me the same day or next. She was up front from the very beginning and never told you what you wanted to hear. If you are looking for a very thorough and knowledgeable attorney, you won't be disappointed. She took the case full force and knew exactly what it took to prove that he was innocent; result: NO-BILL! Our family will be forever grateful to her! Thank you Alyse for saving his life :) I recommend her 110%
The eighteen months of hell is finally over. Eight paid attorneys and $300,000 later in cost and lost wages, we can now rest and move on with life. What a gift of renewed hope! If you are reading this posting and can only afford one attorney - call Alyse Ferguson. Of all the professionals we encountered, she rises above the rest. Years before she became an attorney, she worked in our organization - where she displayed excellent skills in championing for those needing a real champion. Today, she ranks high in her field because she cares, she listens, she studies,and she is available. Ms. Ferguson has earned an excellent reputation among our large family - and we will forever be grateful.
I have worked with Attorney Paul Stuckle as a Forensic Trial Consultant (I also serve as a defense expert who testifies in court cases to best practice methodology relative to forensic interviews of children allegedly abused) in two criminal cases; one in his home state of Texas that went to trial and one out of state where he came in Pro Hac Vice as foreign counsel. In both cases, and in general, I've found Mr. Stuckle to be a knowledgeable, extremely organized, tactical, and tenacious warrior as a criminal defense lawyer.
Whether he presents his case to the Grand Jury via the Prosecutor to prevent a True Bill of Indictment, does legal research, prepares casebooks for his client and defense team, and/or aggressively functions as a Trial Litigator, Attorney Paul Stuckle is light years ahead of most attorneys who try these cases.

Allen Cowling: National Child Sexual Abuse Defense Consultant
As the mother of a son that was falsly accused by CPS and left out there to dry for 18 months...you couldn't have been a better choice for an attorney. You understood how I felt 5 hours away and always were there when I needed comfort. You worked unbelievably to make sure that our son was acquitted!!! We will forever be in your debt....and will tell all those that ask how wonderful, compassionate you were for one falsly accused!
Alyse Ferguson – you saved our family. CPS again failed to do their job and tried to break up an innocent family but we found Alyse by the grace of God. Alyse, I can’t tell you how much you mean to our family. In fact, you will always be a part of our family. I can’t wait until my son is old enough to understand what you did for him! There wasn’t a time when you didn’t answer your phone or immediately return a voicemail, email or text message. We never felt like you were too busy for us and unlike most attorney’s, you didn’t charge by the minute. It was a long, painful experience but we did it. Seeing your name on the caller ID was always a great feeling because I knew you would spend as much time on the phone as we needed. You have a heart of gold and a fist of iron when it comes to CPS. Thank you for making it a personal goal in your life to fight for those falsely accused. You will always be in our prayers. Thank you again and please know that we love you and your staff!
on a scale of 1 to 5 she is a 6! Fights for your family member like it was her own. Smart. Talented. Worth double what you will pay her. This was a false accusation. Police did zero investigation. CPS refused to interview when found a lawyer was involved. DA went to the grand jury without telling defense so the fact the charge was not possible was never heard. Alyse got an impossible deal on plea bargan as we chose not to risk a jury trial. She saved not only an innocent's life, she saved a family. She is God's angel on earth.
Most of us take our freedom for granted, but nothing causes greater misery and pain than to see your life destroyed by false accusations. Months ago I was falsely accused of a crime. I was fortunate to find Alyse. Although many hours from my city, Alyse and her team worked diligently to find evidence about my case and keep me informed of new developments in a timely manner, responding to my calls and emails no matter the time. The best is, she plays by the rules! She will tell you the truth and no "(BS)", and will not charm you with fairy tales or false promises to just take your money. Although sometimes difficult to understand, she has YOUR best interest at hand, so be honest and follow ALL of her advise, and I mean ALL, for she is YOUR lawyer and protector, even against yourself. I chose Alyse as she was HIGHLY recommended by those I trust, and with proven, tangible results. I do not hesitate in recommending this amazing lawyer for your legal needs. You get the BANG for your BUCK!!
With my case, it was dealing with False Accusation, Alyse helped me through soo much and she helped me overcome anythings! As for me being so cooperative I couldn't have asked for someone that worked very well with me to get me a polygraph person that helped me even when I was perfectly fine. Thank you Alyse for being such an awesome lawyer!!!!
My son has been going through the system for a few years. I wish we had Alyse working on his case from the beginning. She came in after the system had really done a job on us and got a much better judgement that we could have hoped for. She does a great job.
I can only say great things about Mrs. Ferguson. She had taken over my case about 7 months into it. If I needed her she was/is always available. I always knew if I contacted her by phone, email or text she would get back to me as soon as she could. Mrs. Ferguson puts her heart into her cases. She treats you like an equal. With her I never felt like she didn't care or believed in me. I couldn't imagine going through this with someone that didn't believe in me. No matter what she never tells you what decision to make she will only advise. I know that’s the way things are suppose to be but that isn't always the case. The office staff of Stuckle & Ferguson is wonderful as well. So if you are in need of a lawyer Mrs. Ferguson is the best around.
During the most difficult and trying time in our lives, Alyse was more than just our attorney. While she was certainly knowledgeable and proffesional, she was also caring and committed to our cause. She treated our family like her own, and was patient and kind and took the time to get to know each one of our family and answer all of their questions as well. We know that she really fought for us and believed in our cause. I would recommend her to anyone. She will go the extra mile for you.
Alyse and her team treated our family with respect and integrity. She is smart and personal. We felt she was part of our family and always had our best interest at heart. I would highly recommend this lawyer.
When your children are taken away from you at the hands of CPS for no reason but a false alligation, you feel helpless. This happened to me and I contacted Alyse and she immediately went to work on my case. She made CPS abide by the law, proved that they were in the wrong and in no time my babies were back at home with me and the case was dropped!! I can not say enough about what a great and professional lawyer the woman is...Thanks Alyse!
Alyse Ferguson helped us in less than 3 months time, what 3 other lawyers couldn't do in 2 years! She was sensitive to our son's needs and helped get our goal of getting him help from CPS and the courts rather than have him in and out of detention till he's 18. My case was rare and yet she still handled it with full knowledge and got the results we needed. I'm grateful to her.
Due to false allegations my family was ripped apart. My wife and I lost everything, our home, our kids, our security, everything! The “innocent until proven guilty” philosophy of our court system was eroding away intil I found Stuckle and Ferguson. Initially I spoke at length with Rachel. She was so compassionate and knew what I was going through; she actually understood our situation. My wife and I met on a SUNDAY with Alyse and Rachel immediately hired them. Within days I was moving in a PROACTIVE direction. We began unveiling the truth that had been ignored by CPS and the "system" and pulled together a strong case to prove my innocence. I gained a confidence that had been taken away early in this horrible situation as they educated me on the process. Ultimately it ended with a no-bill, but all along we experienced the comfort, compassion, and security that we needed to face this very real nightmare from people that felt more like family than a law firm. Thank you so much!
Our family was in serious jeopardy due to false allegations. It was destroying our family. Alyse and staff (Rachel & Dianna) brought together the professionals needed to obtain a No-Bill and they did this very fast as we had a short fuse leading to the Grand Jury. These ladies were very professional and also treated me and my family with heartfelt honor and passion. I can't express my gratitude enough for all that were involved. We Thank You with every moral fiber of our persons and souls.
Last week I contacted Alyse Ferguson because CPS came and kidnapped my son. As soon as I was able to get to her office she took on my case like she was fighting for her own child. I dont have much experiance dealing with attorneys but in my opinion she is One of the best she is very passionate about what she does and she fights till the end for her clients. Words couldnt begin to discribe what Mrs. Ferguson has done for me because of her My son is back with me and I couldnt ask for anything more. If you are ever violated by CPS and need a bulldog she is your knight in shinning armor.
Thank you for assisting us through this difficult time. Having the system explained at each step of the way really helped ease our concerns and the trauma of these false allegations.
Thanks You Alyse for all that you did for Me and my family. Yall stood by us when the system considered us "guilty until proven innocent". Its was a hard road we faced, but the Ferguson team was strong and fearless and helped me get reunited with my son and get my life back to normal,this was priceless. If ever placed in a situation that they can be used, you wont find better representation!! P.D.
Alyse Ferguson was an absolute pleasure to work with through the hardest time in my life. Alyse was always professional, but was still supportive, almost as a friend would be, when I was having difficult times dealing with the DA, CPS, and police. There was never a time when I called that I couldn't reach Alyse, or that she didn't return my call VERY soon after leaving a message. Alyse was understanding when things got hard on my family, and when there was tension, she answered all the questions my family had for her. In addition to a successful No-Bill on my case, Alyse made the process much easier mentally and emotionally on me. If I was able, I would give Alyse ALL 10s on her ratings. She went FAR above & beyond the call of duty. If it weren't for her patience, understanding, and compassion for my family during this time, I don't know how we could have made it. Thank you Alyse for all you did, and YOU will be the first recommendation if I ever hear of someone needing your services.
Alyse has great knowledge & people skills that make it easy for you to communicate about your situation. She let no grass grow under her feet when she was retained by immediately informing us how the law works. We were extremely satisified with her availibity and dedication to our case. She is very professional and we highly reccomend her.
Alyse is a great Attorney who looks out for the best interest of her clients. She had won our case and our kids were returned.
I love Alyse! She has been wonderful in a time of struggle and pain. She has done her job to the upmost and has represented me in a professional way. Her strenth, passion, courage and commitment to my case proves that she is a lawyer who believes in her clients and their freedom. Thank you Alyse, you will always be a part of the B. Family!!! We are praying for your health and buy His stripes you are healed!
we feel lucky to have found Alyse and Paul. CPS tried to remove our baby right after delivery from the hospital. They successfully prevented CPS from taking our precious baby, but they also kept us out of CPS services.
Our family was devastated when our son was accused of child molestation. We rally together and found Paul and Alyse from their website. Knowing in our hearts this wasn't true we wanted the best attorneys possible for the job of representing our son. On our first meeting with Alyse we realized she and Paul were the perfect team we wanted on our side. Together they worked deligently defending our son never backing down when necesasry in the courtroom. I'm convinced that because of the way we all worked as a team is what helped free our son since unfortunately the polygraph he passed along with other forensic interviews were inadmissable in court. If he had been found guilty he would have never seen the light of day again and his father and I would have died at our age before he would have gotten out of prison. The past year and a half has been harder than death living with the possibility of prison. Now I truly believe Paul and Alyse are angels sent from God! They will forever remain very important members of our family! We highly recommend them!
