Great Result...

Attorney Fragel got me out of criminal charges that could have ruined me career. He took an genuine interest in my case, and made sure I knew what my options were. There were no surpises when we got to court. He knew what to do, and I avoided jail and a felony conviction. He charged me a fair pri...ce, and I was able to pay in through a payment plan. At no time did I feel pressured to pay more than I could afford. This attorney works hard, knows his stuff and can be trusted to get the job done!
