Best in business

Let’s me start off by saying thank you to Ken, you are top notch!!! And I also want to thank these other reviewers because if it weren’t for you I wouldn’t have hired him. I had a very serious charge against me back in 2016, so I hired another attorney who I will not name. From the very beginning I h...ad a bad feeling about the guy but I went against my better judgement. I would go to court hearings and he would literally show up at 2pm everytime! I explained to him that I was very concerned about the immigration ramifications more than that of the criminal consequences. He tried to get me to take the deal the prosecution was offering. Which to me was B.S. I would have to cop out to a felony and do some time in jail. If this was the case then I might as well have taken the case to trial. I told if I were to take the deal then immigration would almost certainly begin deportation proceedings and it was like this guy would not listen. Finally, I started looking for a new attorney as I did not like the direction the case was headed in. So I started looking on AVVO and I found Mr. Fredette. What caught my eye was not the amount of reviews he received but the context. So I went in for a consultation and after about 10 minutes of discussing my case I knew he was the guy. Ken is brutally honest, he doesn’t promise you anything but what he does promise and delivers on is 100% commitment to your case. After few pre-trial hearings he almost got the case completely dismissed. I ended up doing pre-trial probation. This is almost as good as a dismissal. No probation fees, no supervision, and most importantly, no record!! Let me add, the only reason why they didn’t give me a complete dismissal was because of a prior conviction I had. Bottom line is, if you’re in a bind call Ken! And I agree with one of the other reviewers who said Ken should charge a lot more for his services... your prices do not fit your results ! Thank you for saving my life Ken

Worker's Compensation Issue

Ken Fredette is a fantastic attorney and did a stellar job in my case revolving around a fraud allegations from a workers comp injury I suffered in 2009. I can say without reservation or hesitation, that Ken is not just a brilliant lawyer but is blessed with genuine concern for his clients and their ...welfare. He is everything a lawyer should be and more. His fees were more than reasonable and surprisingly lower than other lawyers with less skill. After defeating the insurance company by directive verdict and getting my felony charges sealed, I can now live a better life. I know now who to send all of my friends and family if they have a legal issue! Thanks again Ken. Your the best!!!!!!

Cicero 2015

Thank you Attorney Ken Freddette for representing my wayward brother. He has made some foolish choices in the past and deserved to have "the book thrown at him" recently. Your willingness to thoroughly research his case and carefully craft a superior argument on his behalf reduced his impending fin...es and penalties 100 fold. My family and I cannot thank you enough for your knowledge, skill, ability and compassion to defend the indefensible! You are indeed the American Cicero.

good attorney

its not over yet but i had mark roberts for 7 months and he was AWEFUL!!!!! Ken was appointed after I fired mark and I was put in jail that same day. being that Ken wasnt familiar with the details, he couldnt defend the issue of bail at this time. I have to say I havent had much experience with crimi...nal law but I know a little and I have never seen a lawyer be soooo prepared in less then 24 hrs! he marched into supreme court the next day and got my bail reduced. he knew all the facts of the case and Im so grateful!! Its gonna be tough but I am happy to have a great attorney on my side! thanks ken
