I was recommended to Alex from a family friend. I hired him to represent my son. He was very professional, always available when needed and worked hard on the case to get the best outcome for my son. He truly cares about his clients and it definitely shows. I can’t thank him enough for the time and d...edication he put into our case. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing legal service!

Highly recommend

We were referred to Alex von Fricken for consultation regarding a City of Alexandria mandatory juvenile court appearance following a traffic accident. Alex was able to significantly reduce the stress of the unknown for us! He proactively researched the circumstances of our daughter’s case and offered... us excellent advice before and after her court date. Communicating with Alex was easy; he was readily available and very responsive. Alex is an approachable, dependable, and experienced attorney. We would definitely hire him again, and we would absolutely refer him to friends and family.

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.

Posted by Greg | January 19, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

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."
