Highly recommend

I had a wonderful experience with Frye law group and their team. From the very beginning, Michael and Kim made me feel supported and at ease during a stressful time. They were professional, knowledgeable, and always took the time to explain things in a way I could understand. What stood out most was ...how patient and reassuring they were. I never felt like just another case. I’m truly grateful for all of their help and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for guidance they can really trust.

Simply amazing

First I must say that Kim is simply an amazing defense attorney. I scheduled a consultation for her to represent me with possible charges pending from a family member which was traumatic in itself. She's very tough. She's a fighter. And she will fight for you. As she has fought for me and continues t...o fight for me. The best advice I can give you is be completely honest with her. I know it's terrifying when there is pending or possible charges looming. But she needs to see the clear picture so she can fight for you. I am so blessed and thankful that I found her and her practice. Thank you Kim from the bottom of my heart I could not have went through this without you. She truly cares and she will use this extensive legal knowledge to help you.

Kim Frye provides exactly what she advertises... Relentless Defense!

I was falsely accused of a crime and faced 4 felony charges. The sentencing for these charges ranged from a minimum of 5 years to life in prison. I researched DOZENS of criminal defense attorneys in the area, but Ms. Kim Frye really stood out from the rest. I couldn't find a single bad review. She ev...en had great reviews from fellow attorneys singing her praises, showing that she is highly respected by her peers, as well. I had a consultation and retained Fry Law Group as my representation. She handled my case for over 4 YEARS! In those 4 years, the office kept me updated on the case, explained how the process works and she was confident that she would get me a favorable outcome. I'm beyond happy to say that NONE of those charges stuck! This accusation turned my life upside down but Kim went to work and got me an outcome that was WAY better than I thought was even possible! Now, I won't have to spend a single day away from my family. Hiring Frye Law Group is easily one of the best decisions I have ever made. Thank you Ms. Frye, from the bottom of my heart. You gave me my life back, and for that, I will be forever grateful.

Title 9 Case

Kim was very helpful throughout the entire process. She guided me in the investigation, but she also provided a lot of mental and emotional guidance that made it easier for me to deal with things. I don’t think things would have been the same without Kim. Two false Title 9 allegations ended up being ...dismissed by the Title 9 office. The investigations didn’t even reach the hearings! Thank you, Kim!

Kim is one of the cherished few who understand that their commitment to the client's well-being doesn't end at the podium. If you are in trouble, you want a lawyer like Kim who plans for your future after the case is closed as well as before hand."
