Knowledgeable and Trustworthy Attorney

I have met Mr. Fykes about a year ago through personal contacts. He has shown nothing less but professionalism, courtesy and respect for my family and me as his clients. Mr. Fykes is also extremely knowledgeable, is very well versed in his area of practice and most importantly he cares about his clie...nts. I would recommend him without reservation!

Testimonial

Attorney Fykes has been my lawyer and my late mother's lawyer for the past 20 years. I have always found him knowledgeable and efficient. We have used him to prepare trust documents as well as various estate documents such as wills, health care power of attorneys, etc. I am very pleased with the t...rust that he set up for me. It's working and I have included a number of personal and financial items into the trust. I will be engaging his services this year to put my anticipated new home into the already established trust that he set up for me. What I most appreciate about Mr. Fykes is his willingness to respond to my legal questions that may or may not culminate in his services. I think highly of him as a person and as a professional and I have recommended him to several of my friends who have also used his services.

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"First let me correct the information on the website. Attorney Fykes has been continuously either a member of the NY Bar (since 1973) or the DC Bar (since 1982) for the past 38 years. The admonition on his record reflects his "whistle blowing" on a rogue client Personal Representative who was subsequently removed from her position as Personal Representative and ordered to repay a substantial sum of money that she had misappropriated. Having a more than 20 year professional relationship with Mr. Fykes, I can unequivocally state that you will not find a more tenacious advocate for the elderly and someone with vast knowledge and experience in estate administration in DC. He is well schooled in the myriad of challenges that this area of practice covers, including real property issues. With a Blakberry loaded with resources and contacts, a MBA from Harvard and a background in corporate law, he has creatively addressed some of the most difficult situations imaginable."
