Kept it simple

I can’t recommend this attorney enough. He was professional, prepared, and helped get my reckless driving charge reduced to a basic speeding ticket, which made a huge difference for my future. He kept me informed throughout the process and clearly knew exactly how to handle my case in court. Highly r...ecommend if you need someone who knows what they’re doing.

Great lawyer, very professional and got me an outcome better than I expected. Highly recommend.

One of the best lawyers you can ever have. I was charged with reckless driving, tinted plate cover, and a double solid line violation. Even though it was my fault, he still got the tickets dismissed. Reckless driving is rarely dismissed, but he made it happen. I really appreciate everything he did—hi...ghly recommend him.

Very professional

I had an outstanding experience working with Alexander Galliher von Fricken. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and reliable throughout the entire process. From the beginning, he explained everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made sure I felt confident about how my case was b...eing handled. Thanks to his expertise and attention to detail, both of my citations were dismissed, which was the best possible outcome. He handled everything efficiently and took a lot of stress off my shoulders. His communication was excellent, and it was clear that he genuinely cared about achieving the best result for me. I highly recommend Alexander to anyone in need of a skilled and trustworthy attorney. He delivered exactly what he promised and exceeded my expectations.

My court case was dismissed because of Mr. Von Fricken legal assistance.

Alex is a great guy to work with for any legal assistance. He helped me with a traffic summons case. Very professional and knowledgeable attorney. I do highly recommend Maître Von Fricken for any legal consultancy or court representation.

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."
