"People ask me all the time how I can do the work that I do, and to me the question doesn't even make sense. Of course I can do the work that I do. Every person accused of a crime in this country has a constitutional right to be represented by a lawyer. That's my job, and I take it seriously. — Attorney J. Kevin Stockstill

A Small Law Firm Handling a Variety of Criminal Cases

At the Stockstill & Webre Trial Lawyers LLC in Lafayette, criminal defense work is at the forefront of our practice. Our firm is a small, professional establishment that selects a small number of cases from the hundreds of people who ask us to represent them. Fewer cases means more time for each client, which we believe leads to better results overall. Many cases are referred to us by former satisfied clients, other attorneys, judges, court staff and even criminal prosecutors.

Attorney Stockstill defends clients accused of crimes in both state and federal court - in Lafayette, Baton Rouge, Lake Charles, New Orleans and in parishes throughout southern and central Louisiana. Some of the types of cases we handle include:

White collar crimes

Violent crimes

  • Assault and battery
