Not good at all

I've hired this Attorney and we went to trial and lost you can reach me on my email and I can confirm with you . He is the worst lawyer I've met him and his firm they are unprepared incompetent they've received my discovery and didn't realize it till 2 months later never met with me to prepare a defe...nse never listened to my points just brushed it off . Never introduced any evidence in my trial and let the commonwealth walk all over me with no fighting back at all they are trying to charge me money for leaving a negative review. They are dishonest theu should never taking my case since they have 0 knowledge how to fight those cases again reach me on my email I provided and I will prove that I hired him don't let other people fall victims to this lawyer or his firm from his opening statement I knew I lost he trial the officer lied on stand and he never pushed back.

Great overall experience!

Corey and Cassandra did a very good job of balancing professionalism with realism. They will tell you the facts, find out any answers you may have, and work hard to resolve your case. Patience is a virtue and I'm glad that things ended up the way they did. It definitely helps to have an experienced a...ttorney no matter what situation you're in; especially if you're out of state! I felt confident that Corey and Cassandra would get this case resolved, and they did. Beyond pleased and happy to work with them! Don't second guess your decision. Go with this team.

This is your go to law firm if you need help.

I have nothing but good things to say about this law firm and people that work there. They are fantastic at their job and courteous and professional all the way. I was very impressed with their expertise and attention to detail. Corey worked with me and didn’t skip a beat when it came to doing everyt...hing he could to benefit my case. All I can do is say thank you and I am very happy with everything they did for me. Also want to say thank you to Cassandra I kept the communication lines open and kept me informed about everything that was going on every step of the way.

Corey, Cassandra, and the Wondrous Legal Team

Corey and his legal team were the most kind, authentic, and proactive group of professionals I have ever had the pleasure to work with. I had received a DUI last year, and Corey, Cassandra, and the entire team made sure to be present, empathetic, and courteous every step of the process. I had a lot a...gainst me regarding the case; however, because of Corey and his team's legal prowess, I had the charges removed from my record and did not face any type of jail-time. He is well-versed, a gentleman, and made sure that my rights were observed and adhered to at all times throughout this ordeal. I cannot have asked for a more price-effective and efficient team of wondrous people to represent me through this. Both Corey and his team work magic, and ease the anxiety that you may be experiencing with practical, intimate knowledge of the legal system. He is a blessing.

Exceeding Expectations

I was referred to Attorney Fahnestock. From the initial consultation he was professional, and knowledgeable. I was facing serious charges, and pretty nervous about the situation. Corey made me feel at ease, and that he was fighting for my best outcome. He got back to me in a timely manner to addre...ss any concerns, and remained attentive and professional throughout this whole process. Corey ultimately got my most serious charge dismissed. He refused to settle until we reached agreeable terms. I could not be more pleased. I highly recommend Attorney Fahnestock.
