Would hire again

I so very appreciate everything this law firm did for me and my case. Cassandra and/or Corey were easily reached when trying to communicate and/or got back to me promptly. My questions and concerns were addressed to satisfaction. Corey is a great attorney, very personable but absolutely professional.... I would definitely hire again if I were ever to need legal services again.

Great Representation from a great legal team

I am greatly appreciative of Attorney Fahnestock's representation. Anytime I had a question or concern, I was able to get in touch with either him or Cassandra and have my questions answered. Very helpful and skilled attorney if you find yourself looking.

Communication is the key...

I originally hired another lawyer from Corey's firm to represent my husband at his prelim hearing and unfortunately he was too expensive for me to hire for the next phase of this process. We were very pleased with this lawyer. The main issue I had with Corey was communication. My husband was remanded... without bail so every thing had to go through me. Then we would be told Corey was going to the prison for a visit and it would not happen and I would not be contacted to explain and forward the info as to when he thought he would make it out there. Once a pre-trial conference was rescheduled and I was never notified. I took off work, was sitting in the courtroom and a bailiff is the one who told me it was rescheduled. I explained even if it was rescheduled late the previous day it takes 2 min to send a email. It wasn't until I freaked out and explained this is our lives, this man is a pop pop, husband, father and is very much loved and I need things to change. So after I had this discussion with the office manager, the communication was excellent and I was very pleased with Corey after that. He always answered my emails almost immediately and either he or his paralegal would return my calls very promptly. I feel Corey listened to what my husband wanted and he did his best to get those results. Corey got my husband the best possible outcome despite the extenuating circumstances that played against him. I feel Corey is a newer lawyer but he is developing skill and gaining knowledge and over all does a good job. Over the course of our case Corey became more confident and if he remembers his clients are people and not just case numbers he will be excellent. Keep up the good work Corey.

Amazing team!

Corey and Cassandra did everything I could have ever hoped for! I had never been in any kind of trouble before and had tons and tons of questions. No matter how many times I contacted them, they were so quick to get me an answer and help me through so such a stressful time. I got exactly the outcome ...I was looking for (probably even better to be honest) and it was a very quick resolution as well. I would 100% recommend them to anyone in need of an attorney. I cannot thank them enough!

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.
