Great Experience
I retained Alex Von Fricken for my son. He was reasonably priced, professional and easy to work with. He knew exactly what to do to obtain the outcome we wanted in court, and everything went as planned. Highly recommend and would definitely retain him again (although I hope we never need to)

A lawyer worth hiring
Alex gave me the info and tools needed to prepare me for court and got me the best possible outcome. He knows what he's doing and that was proven the day we met to settle my case.

Great service
I couldn’t be more grateful and appreciative of Alex. I told him what I wanted and he was able to make it happen. He gave the right advice, was very knowledgeable and knew the right moves to make for me to get what I wanted out of my case. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Simply Great.
Throughout my whole case Alex made it simple easy and sound for me, when I was panicked and could not imagine what could’ve been the outcome. All I can I say is Alex made everything a slice of cake and I appreciate him the most. I would most definitely recommend him.

He practices in different jurisdictions than I do - so I refer him clients with absolute confidence, knowing they are in good hands."
"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."
