Excellent lawyer

I retained Mr. Fridie's services to help move along and ultimately resolve my divorce case. He was very knowledgeable and informative every step of the process. He was always available to answer any questions I had. I would highly recommend Mr. Fridie if you are looking for an experienced lawyer.

Pleasant Demeanor

My Daughter was facing Drug and traffic ticket charge. Mr. Fridle III was able to have the traffic tickets dismissed and with the drug charge she receive a year probation and under $1,000 in fines. My first consultation with Mr. Fridle, I thought he was very pleasant, honest experienced and knowledg...eable.

Exceptional Legal Counsel - Make Him Your First And Only Call

I retained Mr. Fridie as my attorney after receiving a Criminal Summons for writing an honest review about a local business on Google and Yelp, so I figured it would be apt to do the same regarding his practice. From the first time I contacted Mr. Fridie's office, he took ample time to review my case... with me and give his initial impressions prior to receiving Discovery. During our first in person meeting, he proved himself to be a competent and capable Counsel, outlining my legal options and various scenarios I could expect from the Plaintiff and Prosecution. He and his staff were always available when I had questions or concerns and I never felt "lost" or uncertain about what was going on during the criminal process. He was present at each court appearance and always presented me with the options the District Attorney was offering without attempting to nudge me in one direction, allowing me to make decisions I felt were best for me and my family. With his legal expertise, he was able to take an annoying and convoluted case and achieve what is essentially a dismissal of all charges, for which I am extremely grateful. I am supremely happy with the legal services and representation Mr Fridie provided and will gladly recommend him to others with legal issues. Although I do hope it does not occur again in the future, if anything does I plan on using Mr. Fridie for all of my criminal justice needs.

Pleased Services

As I write this we are currently still in the process of the deliberation phase of my case. Regardless of the outcome, James Fridie has prioritized a fair defense thus far. During my first meeting James Fridie, put my mind at ease giving me the confidence to believe he would represent me to his full ...capability. Being accused of a crime is unjust when your innocent. My experience throughout this process so far, has been enlightening to how easy it can be for someone to ruin your life by a false accusation and the courts proceed whether you have sufficient representation or not. James Fridie put me at ease with his diligence to clear my case with what evidence I could provide. Though my case is not over I’m not disappointed thus far. In fact, I don’t feel I could have found another attorney who would have been more effective. I’m sure all cases have it’s challenges, but, I hope all your clients see you as the awesome attorney you are. Thank you for your enthusiasm and expertise in representing me.

Best experience ever

James R Fridie is a very professional, compassionate, thorough and knowledgeable attorney. He helped my family get through some very difficult legal problems and communicated in easy to understand terms from the beginning to the resolution of six different cases. He was a pleasure to work with and w...orth every penny. I would highly recommend James to everyone.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
