LAWYER GOD

The first time I ever had charges in my life I was certain my future was taken from me. I had 3+ felony Drug Dealing charges at that.. Looking around online for a lawyer and consulting with them all in my area, something about Mr.Funk and his team gravitated him to me as the guy that would rescue me ...and keep my future BRIGHT! Our first meeting going over the case upon me, his words were “ I'm not a fairy that can sprinkle magic dust on the case and make it go away like most people think lawyers do/are, but i think you are gonna be fine”. As i appeared in superior court and left out to go over my verdict he received for me after his work was done.. IN FACT he actually had me thinking he was a fairy that sprinkled his magic dust, and he saved my future with a simple program that would, upon completion, have all my charges dropped and off of my record to keep it clean as a whistle. He and his assistants down to the most kind lady at the front desk in-office made me feel like i was in the best legal representation for criminal defense in DELAWARE! I thank God and him everyday it crosses my mind how my life could have been ruined over a mistake. I recommend any criminal defense needed to contact Alexander W. Funk to represent you for your charges to stay out of jail and continue on with smarter decisions to live on with you life legally and on the right path.. TRUST ME . He will grant that journey for you. Also, unlike others that charge outrageous prices, he is beyond affordable for his work skill and a pleasure to do business with. Your so appreciated ! -GodBless

Extremely satisfied

Alex defended our son against several charges at once. From the first consult he inspired our confidence. Throughout the process he was available to us, promptly responsive to any concerns, presented us with multiple strategies he would later employ, and was relentless in his efforts to secure the be...st possible outcome, which he did. He is very resourceful, exploring every possibility for an effective defense. We felt our case was important to him and he never gave up. We would certainly hire him again. He does not disappoint.

Highly Recommended

Mr. Funk was undoubtedly presented with a very unusual case when he took me on as a client, as any other lawyer surely would’ve ushered me out the door of their office after they heard my story! He reviewed the case and all of its oddities and told me what steps we needed to take. He was confident af...ter reviewing the medical documentation/evidence that was gained over the 5 months, that we would have a relatively strong case against the charges. The charges were very serious. I had always been (still am) a law abiding citizen so all of this was very new to me, it was very stressful, he was understanding in that aspect as well. He was able to compile enough documentation to have the charges dismissed before going to trial and I couldn’t have been more relieved. My family and I are very grateful for the outcome. He is very professional and I would highly recommend Mr. Funk and the firm.

DUI Lawyer

I hired Mr Funk after reading all of the positive reviews here on Avvo. I am not from Delaware so when I got charged with a DUI I had no idea where to look. I had a bac of .138, but a rather clean record beyond that. From our first meeting he was very respectful and straight forward about the possibi...lities of my case. I promise that he has your best interests in mind. Listen to him and he’ll help you get your peace of mind and life back. He was able to secure me a very favorable ruling, partially because I took his advice of enrolling into a dui education program early (before any judgement). His price was very reasonable and offers great payment plans. If you need a lawyer for any civil matter, I promise you won’t regret choosing Alex Funk.

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.
