Low level office staff
I contacted this office the day after my arrest. I met with Ed himself who assured me he would personally representing me. I was reassured that I was choosing the best option for circumstance. He recommended I have an alcohol evaluation done because the judge will want one and I will look good gettin...
First, I would like to clarify and correct that you were charged with the crime of DWI, however, after a bench trial, you were found NOT GUILTY of that crime as well as the 3 traffic violations you were also charged with. You were found guilty of DWAI, which is a violation of the traffic law and not a criminal offense. Second, you did not hire me as your exclusive attorney, you hired my team which consists of three former felony prosecutors and myself. Third, as far as paperwork filed with DMV, that comes directly from the court and we have no control over when it is filed and when DMV takes action on it. Fourth, when we appeared on your behalf for your compliance, the judge wanted an updated evaluation and did adjourn the case to a later date. It is not our practice to phone clients after court appearances to let them know what happened. It is our practice to do so by means of written correspondence, which we did, by your own admission. If you were curious about what occurred, nothing prevented you from phoning our office. As for the judge requiring an additional and/or updated evaluation, that is at the judge's discretion. We did, however, point out that you had a good evaluation initially which the judge was in possession of. In the end, you avoided a criminal conviction and the ramifications of the three underlying traffic charges, and we are continuing to work with you to resolve your outstanding issues with the court.

Felony Aggrrvated DWI
Back in May of 2015 I got charged with a felony DWI. Embarrassed and ashamed of myself I knew I needed one heck of a good lawyer that was very experienced in DWI'S. I couldn't be happier in that I retained Fiandach & Fiandach to represent me. It's been almost a year and I'm still fighting my case wit...

DWI- CONVICTED
I was pulled over one night and was charged with my first aggrevated DWI. My wife insisted that I hire Ed Fiandach. I had my initial consultation with him and that was the only time I saw Mr.Fiandach. I read all the reviews and decided to hire him as my counsel. The whole process took a year to settl...
Unfortunately, although we always do our very best, we cannot guarantee nor do we always succeed at trial, especially in cases such as this where there is a very high BAC. This individual fails to point out that at his request, I met with the prosecutor and the Judge to negotiate a plea to a reduced charge and I was able to obtain the same. That is the “plea deal” that the client refers to. Once we obtained the favorable plea bargain, the client changed his mind and decided that he wanted instead to go to trial. He was cautioned that his BAC was extremely high and that he faced a high probability of conviction on the top count. Our absolute policy is never coercing a client to accept a plea bargain. It is our policy, as it should be, that the client must make the decision as to whether or not to go to trial. Our advice notwithstanding, the client nevertheless insisted upon a trial and the results are as he set forth. I wish him luck in the future. Ed Fiandach

Dismissed!!!
I sincerely do not know what I would have done without Mr. Fiandach's expertise and support. I had my first (and I expect my only) DWI. I was embarrassed and scared of what a conviction would do to my career, future opportunities and reputation. Ed was forthcoming and honest about the potenti...

DWI? Absolutely 100% the only law firm you should consider
I was charged with felony DWI in February 2015 with a refusal. I immediately consulted my private family attorney and considering that the case wasn't the average DWI circumstances he was honest with me and suggested I seek counsel from an attorney that specialized in DWI such as Ed Fiandach. Ever s...
