Wonderful Attorney

I had the pleasure of working with a phenomenal attorney, who made the process extremely easy. He was extremely attentive, answering all questions, and ultimately because of him it was a very good outcome. I would highly recommend his services for anyone seeking a reputable attorney.

Reckless Driving/Speeding

Alex was extremely flexible in his availability. We frequently needed to discuss the matter in off hours -- weekends and evenings -- and he was consistently available during those times. The case also meandered along different tacks as circumstances changed, and he went above and beyond in continui...ng to adapt to differing circumstances, none of which were due to his handling of the matter or his advice, which was forthcoming and honest as the circumstances changed. The end result met the desired outcome.

Excellent experience

Alex did a great job of handling my traffic citation in a local district court — when I contacted him, he was responsive and clear about what the process would look like. He was also so encouraging, which relieved my stress about the whole situation! I really appreciated that Alex provided multiple a...venues of communication (email, text, phone) depending on what was needed, and kept up communication with me throughout the whole process. I felt that he was a great advocate for me with the prosecutor, and I came out of the case with a better result than I expected. Thank you!

Speeding Ticket

I received a speeding ticket about a couple of months ago and once I’ve founded Alex Von Fricken, right away he responded to me letting me know what he could do with my case. I am very satisfied with what he was able to do with my ticket. He is a very nice person & professional with his job. Highly ...recommended!

Great lawyer!

I was facing a misdemeanor charge and got the case dismissed due to Alexander’s expertise and experience! I definitely recommend him as he is very professional and just good to work with.

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."

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.
