Dan Fricke is a sharp attorney. My ex-wife went adversarial and wore out my original attorney. Dan picked up my case and took it to the finish line with a succinct, persuasive motion. He was responsive and fair with his billing. He achieved the much desired outcome.

Dan is a great attorney, he is easy to talk to and always calm. He explains things well and gives valuable feedback. I have a difficult parenting situation and was dealing with a lot - tried to do things on my own and everything went sideways. I hired Dan and it ended almost two years of insanity. No...

I have a very difficult custody case, Dan helped me to get one step closer to my goal. He's very empathetic to the difficulties in my case, which I value that trait in him. Great job!

Dan was a fighter for our rights and looked out for our best interests. With Covid, there were delays from the other side but Dan battled and got the system to move on our behalf. I would encourage anyone to use Dan!
"First off, Dan is simply a great person; he is the type of person that the first time you meet him you immediately know you're going to like him. This is so important when dealing with clients because they are often confused and worried about their situation, but a person like Dan can have a calming presence that puts a client at ease. When it comes to the law, Dan is brilliant, hard-working, and tenacious yet respectful. I highly endorse him."
"Dan is knowledgeable and committed to his clients. I go to him for advice and input in all the areas of law that he practices in. I endorse this lawyer."
