Nobody I would trust more

I have been using John Fanney since the year 2001. I have used other local attorneys as well so I have a good frame of reference, and I can say I have always been taken good care of when using Mr. Fanney. Whether criminal or traffic, felony or misdemeanor, I have never been over-promised anything lik...e some law offices do, the outcome always at least what it should be, and quite regularly the outcome has been better than expected, including my most recent case(and he has handled quite a few charges, somewhere between 10-12). I have recommended several friends and a few family members to use Mr. Fanney and they have always had good experiences and thanked me for the recommendation. Unfortunately, our criminal justice system is difficult and unpleasant to navigate but there is nobody else I would trust more with my freedom.

DWI Case

I hired John Fanney close to a year ago and was sure of him by the way he presented himself. John and I talked the case over just before we went to trial. While talking it over I begin to doubt that I would be found not guilty considering the evidence. When trial started, it all started to turn aroun...d. It was like watching great entertainment that you don't actually want to be apart of. John was quick and hit on points that we originally did not think of. He shines bright in the clutch, but also prepares himself well. A true Perry Mason in what he specializes. I was found not guilty of DWI and highly satisfied. I would highly recommend John Fanney to anyone that has been charged of DWI/DUI etc.

Your search is over for a DWI lawyer.

The most important thing you can do at this point is hire the best person to represent you and if you're in Raleigh that is is John Fanney. John is the perfect mix of honest, gentle, yet will fight hard for your case. Anytime I needed anything John and his office were responsive and he always made su...re I felt comfortable with our next steps. He dumbed down the lawyer-speak for me to understand what was going on in court and the entire legal process. It took over 16 months but my case was dismissed. No other lawyer I spoke with in my research would have made that happen. He is worth every penny.

Top notch

John has been my person I always consult when dealing with any NC DWI or Criminal issues that involve my clients from SC. He is truly a 'Top Gun" in his work ethic and knowledge.

Best outcome possible!

John reresented me on a very serious charge and was successful in having my case dismissed. He met with me several times to go over the evidence in my case and showed me the opportunities we had to win the case. I am extremely happy with the results and give John the higest recommendation possible. H...e is a winner!
