Joseph Wayne Flees II

30 years ago I was court-martialed and convicted of a sex offense. Fast forward to last year, I was working and was arrested for being in a park near a playground. I reached out to an attorney with whom I’d worked with prior but felt that I needed to look around. I’m glad I did. I found Joe Flees ...on a Google search and reached out. I met with him and explained my situation. We connected immediately. He clearly explained the process and put my immediate fears to rest. His military backgound and understanding of my initial court-martial, combined with his understanding of the circumstances of my present dilemma, and his knowledge of the arresting municipality made Joe the ideal choice to represent me. I’ve worked hard to rebuild my life over the last 30 years. A conviction would’ve ruined me in so many ways. Worse case scenario: I was facing jail time, fines, and God knows what else. With Joe and his team’s help my charges were DISMISSED. Next up: I’m going to rehire Joe and see if there’s any way to get off of the Sex Offender registry .

I was acquired of rape and charged in February 2020. I never rape anyone and stood to my truth. All the stress of the case for 2 years Joe always answered no matter what tike was just to talk to keep me cool. I wanted to kill myself because of how this made me look and Joe kept me wanting to push for...ward. Joe told me from day one he knew we would win because he believed I was being wronged and wanted to do all he could to fix it. He fought every inch. Case needed up going to trail where I was more scared my life was over. I couldn't take a deal knowing I never raped anyone but was facing life for 1st degree statutory rape. We fought the long fight and in the end got a not guilty 2 days ago after 2 years of fighting. Joe, Brian, and Jen all worked on my case and was all there at the end when verdict was read. NOT GUILTY!!!! I can bow start back building my life because of them. Would hired them again in a minute uf needed but hope to never need them again. Joe like family now.

I have been absolutely impressed by the expertise, support, and positive results delivered by Joe Flees and his colleagues at Frank, Juengel, and Radefeld. I first encountered Mr. Flees's work as he contributed research and represented me at a number of hearings in my defense of sexual offense charge...s. Joe and his partner Dan Juengel led a defense that resulted in a favorable plea deal that I could not have imagined at the onset. After some years, I was shocked to learn of a completely false accusation made against me, and so I immediately reached out to the team at Frank, Juengel, and Radefeld once again. Throughout this ordeal, which involved a criminal investigation and an investigation by Social Services, I was able to rely on both Dan and Joe to advise me and prepare me for each step along the way. Both attorneys were aggressive in their pursuit of evidence in my case yet adept at presenting my case smartly to potential prosecutors, investigators, and Social Services professionals. After learning that the allegations would not garner any criminal investigation (a huge relief), I worked exclusively with Joe Flees to fight the initial determination made by the Dept of Social Services. Due to my prior plea deal and the fact that DDS has a much lower threshold for determining possible guilt this was not a slam dunk. Joe's support was invaluable, his research impeccable, and his clear and thoughtful representation led to a ruling in my favor. My family and I will forever be grateful to Joe for his skilled legal defense as well as kind support throughout this difficult ordeal.

My son was arrested on a felony CP charge. The family had no idea what was going on, what to do, or where to turn. Joe was recommended by another attorney we called, who highlighted his experience and compassion in this area. We called Joe who immediately impressed us with his knowledge, straight...-forward talk of what to expect, clear explanations of what to expect next, and quick to respond to texts and emails. I cannot stress enough how important the right attorney is, and Joe is that attorney to call.

Joe is persistent, concentrated and provides inventive defense. I was charged with possession of CP, a felony B, which carries minimum five years in prison and a mandatory sex offender registration. The prosecutors wanted ten years in prison. In a high-tech field of law such as computer related ob...scenity crime, Joe has a firm grasp of how torrents and file-sharing software work. Since technology was involved with my criminal charge, the case was getting complicated. Joe took depositions of all the detectives involved and brought in an expert that analyzed my computers and helped sort through my case so he could provide the best defense possible. It was a long fight that took almost five years and four prosecuting attorneys (and the COVID-19 pandemic) since the initial arrest, and although I had admitted to the crime to the cops, Joe's perseverance and diligence brought the case to a favorable outcome. My charge was amended to non-registerable felony D and I was put on probation, thus avoiding both prison time and consequent sex offender registration. I am very thankful and highly recommend Joe if you need professional defense.
