Amazing

Alex was amazing . I was able to hire him the day before my court date and he worked around his schedule for me. First time facing a reckless driving charge and it was ultimately dismissed in court. Highly recommend Alex due to his professionalism and explanation of the entire process

Excellent lawyer in Arlington

Alex was recommended to me by a friend who had been extremely happy with his law expertise. Upon meeting him, I understood why. Alex is very intelligent and has a huge amount of personal experience in criminal law. Additionally, he immediately inspired great confidence in his persuasive abilities ...and behavior. He was always available for any of my questions or concerns during the two months prior to the hearing. He successfully had one of the two charges against me dropped, and, also, had the fine on the second charge completely removed. I was totally happy with the results of his diligent work, and would whole heartedly recommend him. It was money and time well spent with a very sincere and kind professional.

Amazing Lawyer

First time facing a reckless driving charge. I was walked through the whole procedure of what would happen the day of the court date in a understanding manner. Alex ultimately reduced my misdemeanor to a faulty equipment charge. Very calm cool collected individual and saved me points on my license an...d the risk of higher insurance premiums. Would definitely recommend to friends and family!

Amazing attorney

I had an absolutely great experience with Alex. I had a wreckless driving change on a CDL with an accident and was looking at jail time and loosing my license. In some amazing and professional way Alex managed to get it all reduced to an in proper driving witch was only a fine and 3 points against my... license. He was also very affordable and a pleasure to talk with. He also worked with me more than fairly financially and took my case with a very short notice and was more than prepared on the day of court. I would recommend this man to anyone. I know he is without a doubt my new attorney from here on for anything to do with driving. I can’t praise this man enough for what he has done for me

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."
