About John

Biography

When you hire a criminal defense lawyer, you are hiring them not only as your advocate, but as your shield. A criminal accusation turns your life upside down. It sounds corny, but I am your buffer against the chaos, and your shield against the storm.

Practice Areas

Criminal Defense 50%

General felony criminal defense, including State and Federal charges. I practice criminal law different than most, with a client-centered approach and an equal concentration on knowing the law and knowing the facts.

34 years

50%
White Collar Crime 40%

Federal Government prosecutors, who by and large have never run a business and have always drawn a taxpayer funded paycheck, do not understand how private enterprise works. All profit is fraud to them. We explain business to them and to juries.

34 years

40%
DUI and DWI 10%

Defense of misdemeanor and felony DWI charges. This is a criminal charge that can happen to anyone except tea-totalers, and sometimes even them. We help you get these charges behind you -- often with a dismissal -- and get your life back on track.

Call John. He will help.

When I found myself in a little trouble, I quickly found out John is a friend of the local artists. He came highly recommended by the artist community. And he did not disappoint. This was my first time to need this kind of help and I was a mess. John's demeanor and knowledge put me at ease, thoug...h. He jumped right into action and helped me through a tough period with his attention to my case. He always let me know what was coming and was able to say just the right things to help me worry a whole lot less about the process. I won't need that kind of help again, but I am so glad he was there when I needed him and I hereby recommend him to help you get through whatever it is you find yourself involved in. Call John. You will be glad you did.

Hire the right lawyer.

John was great . After many consultations with several lawyers I decided to go with John . He was straight forward and told me what it was going to take for my case to result in a favorable outcome . I was confident in John and didnt even worry about my case as i should have . not only did John do ex...actly what he said he was going to do but ultimately got the case dismissed before we even went to court .

Relatable and approachable

I do not know how John is able to find the time to help people at the drop of a hat while also doing his criminal case work but he is. He helped me out of a tough spot when I made a poor choice (no harm done thankfully) which could have adversely affected my teaching career. He was able to change the... entire context of what happened with his skill. I know I can always count on John Fahle to have my back and he is so relatable and approachable he has a way of making you feel more in control of your predicament.

A Lawyer that is up to date with current laws and knows how to use it to fight for me

If you were smart enough to hire John Fahle to represent you on any legal matter congrats! I personally feel completely and thoroughly represented to the full extent of the law when I need John’s help. He is kind, understanding, knows the law better than anyone in any court room and completely unders...tands how I feel about my case. I know I will get a fair chance in any legal case no matter what the issue is because I have a Legal Warrior like John Fahle. Thank you John for knowing your job so well and being able to execute the extent of the law in my defense. You have been amazing! Thank you!
