The story below was written by David Wilson, a Stangl Law client who encountered a serious legal problem related to a firearms restriction.
This problem directly affected his employment as a truck driver responsible for hauling military equipment including ammunition and weapons. David went in search of a skilled attorney who could help appeal his conviction and protect his livelihood.
Following an appeal process, Attorney Stangl negotiated a settlement with the District Attorney, which the court approved.

At the heart of the expungement statute lies an intention “to provide a break to young offenders who demonstrate the ability to comply with the law” by successfully completing and being discharged from their sentences.

Invokana was the first of its kind in a new class of drug for Type 2 diabetes.
It was developed and marketed to help people manage their diabetes without insulin by causing the kidneys to remove sugar from the body via urine, thereby lowering blood sugar levels. This process prevents blood from reabsorbing the sugar.
In March 2013, the FDA approved Invokana. However, two years later in May 2015 the agency was warning the public that Invokana may lead to dangerous side effects.
