About Helen
Helen Stolinas earned her J.D. from the Dickinson School of Law in 1992. She completed the program at a time when legal education was undergoing important changes, and her training there provided the foundation for a steady career in Pennsylvania courts.
Her bar admissions reflect a courtroom-centered practice. She is admitted to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and to the U.S. District Courts for the Middle and Western Districts of Pennsylvania. She also maintains current membership in professional associations relevant to her work.
Stolinas joined The Mazza Law Group, PC, where she has built a practice that regularly appears in both state and federal settings. Colleagues describe her approach as measured; she prepares cases carefully and treats procedural details as important. Her courtroom presence is pragmatic rather than theatrical. She aims to present clear, practical arguments and to help clients understand the steps ahead.
Over the years she has handled matters that require attention to both local rules and federal practice. That combination of venues requires flexibility. She moves between state and federal dockets, preparing filings and appearing for hearings when the case demands it. The daily work combines research, client advising, negotiation and occasional litigation. Stolinas balances those tasks while keeping an eye on court schedules and evidentiary requirements.
Outside the courtroom she participates in association activities and stays current on developments that affect litigation in Pennsylvania. Her membership in professional groups provides regular contact with peers and access to continuing legal education. That interaction supports a practice that is anchored in the courts where she is admitted.
Clients and colleagues see her as steady and detail-oriented. She tends to prioritize clarity in filings and straightforward explanations for clients facing complex procedures. Her reputation in her office is of someone who handles the routine and the emergent with the same level of attention.
She currently practices at The Mazza Law Group, PC, concentrating on matters in Pennsylvania state courts and the U.S. District Courts for the Middle and Western Districts of Pennsylvania.
