Alex was a great lawyer. He was able to tell me what his thoughts on my case and what they potentially could charge me with and on what they did not have enough evidence to charge me with. They gave me 3 different options in court and he explained each to me. My decision was based on what he had advi...sed me on knowing that they didn’t have enough evidence to charge me made me want to go to trial and he was ready for it. Luckily the judge did not want to take it that far and agreed on dismissing that charge and settling with what we had to offer. I had a good outcome on my case. After my case he still answered any questions I had and told me to reach out to expunge my record. I will be recommended him to friends and family if we are ever in a situation like this again.

I had a good driving record (no tickets in the last 10-15 years) but I made a mistake and was caught (passing on the shoulder on I-395). Alex was recommended by another lawyer that my sister had referred me to (the other lawyer did not practice in Arlington County). He made no big claims but put... me at ease that possibilities were good. He had me take a defensive driving course, had me look up and send my driving record and that was it. One of my worries was a vacation I was planning to go on, with my assigned court date being in the middle of it. But Alex had me sign a power of attorney and in fact said sometimes its even better for only him to show up at court. He then did have the date changed, and even though I was available on the next date, in concurrence with Alex, I didn't go to the court. I was beyond just happy to get his text later that day that my charge was reduced to a faulty equipment with $172 fine (including cc fee etc). While I intend to not make mistakes in the future, I knew my cleaner driving record would help me in case I do end up in a situation like this..... On top of having retained my driving record, I now know a guy who can make this process very painless with the best outcome as well... A sincere thanks to Alex for keeping me from becoming more vulnerable!

I am currently a student in University, and I was charged with multiple misdemeanors and a felony charge. I was able to get in contact with Alex through a trusted contact, and I reached out to Alex to get legal assistance. Alex was extremely quick to respond to my phone calls, text messages, and emai...ls. As it was my first time ever dealing with the law, I had several questions and Alex took the time to answer every single one. As a full time student, I was in distress for affording a lawyer, but Alex did not hesitate to provide me with other solutions for payments. I only have great things to say about Alex, and I truly cannot thank him enough for his help. I highly recommend Alex to anyone who is seeking legal assistance. To conclude, my felony charges were dropped. Alex will treat your case like you would want it to be treated.

Mr. von Fricken helped reduce my speeding ticket fine and avoid any VA driving point deductions. He was very professional, responsive, and competent -- he explained things clearly and answered questions quickly. In addition he set realistic expectations (then exceeded them), and was very cordial in c...ommunications. His understanding, experience, and good standing with the court was evident. I would gladly engage his services in the future and highly recommend him to others.
