Excellent Attorney with attention to detail...

I was referred to Alex from a family friend. He had used him for a traffic violation and wanted representation at his court hearing. It didn't take too much salesmanship on his part. I called Alex and hired him. From the start, he knew what I should do and what I should expect. He achieved a better r...esult than I thought possible in court. I truly appreciate his attention to detail and professionalism. I strongly suggest him to anyone needing representation.

Client

Alex is the way to go. He is very honest and informative. He helped me get my reckless driving charge reduced to a speeding with a fine. I was instructed of all the steps I needed to take to make the case lean more in my favor. He saved my livelihood and job. I recommend him to anyone in the Same sit...uation as me. I’m forever appreciative of everything he was able to do for me.

Great to work with

Alex was a great guy to work with and did a great job handling my case. He got a reckless down to a non moving with ease. Very professional and very polite. Would absolutely recommend.

I got a traffic ticket last year and I was supposed to go to court to defend on my case. I searched online for three weeks to find a good and experienced attorney. I found Attorney Alex. He is excellent and defend on court, and my case dismissed.

Professional, Personable and Responsive

I contacted Mr Von Fricken with very short notice before my court date and he was able to talk me through everything and was very prompt on explaining exactly what he needed from me to proceed. He was able to get my traffic citation dismissed and I walked out of the courthouse free and clear minutes ...after court was in session! Very pleased with the outcome. Would highly recommend!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Alex von Fricken is a highly skilled and competent lawyer. His background as a former prosecutor makes him especially well suited to defend those accused of crimes because he knows exactly how the other side works and thinks. He is an excellent trial lawyer, yet he is able to use his keen negotiation skills to achieve the desired result for many clients without having to go to trial. He keeps his clients well informed and educates them about all possible outcomes of their case. I highly recommend Alex von Fricken to represent your interests in both criminal and civil matters."
