Highly Recommended

Dave has represented me in a minor traffic matter and in a few commercial matters. I have recommended him to several friends for custody cases and a serious criminal matter. Without exception, he has acted to get my matters resolved quickly to my satisfaction. I am very happy with his service and p...rofessionalism. He is very accessible and even gave me his cell phone number. I never felt out of touch. Each of my friends have thanked me for referring them to him for their cases. He gets the job done. As far as I know he doesn't advertise at all and gets his clients by word of mouth. That is how I found out about him. He is a good guy too.

This guy is very good...

Dave is a straight shooter who gave me good advice, told me what I needed to know (even if I didn't want to hear it) and was VERY effective. He responded to me very quickly and was very accessible. It is funny but I was referred to him by the opposing party in another case who said that he wished h...e had hired him. My case was settled but I wish that I could have seen him in court. I have heard from other lawyers that he is the best around and that he teaches other lawyers how to do trials.

Criminal defense lawyer | Apr 30

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"As a former prosecutor I have watched nearly every attorney that practices in Madison County in action. Mr. Fahrenkamp is the most persuasive and effective trial lawyer I have seen. My first jury trial was against Mr. Fahrenkamp and the jury returned a "not guilty" verdict in less than 10 minutes. He is an exceptional lawyer and I strongly recommend him."
