Rare Creature: An Honest Lawyer

She truly seeks justice for those who are being railroaded by the justice system. She will instantly elevate you above the churn of the judicial/incarceration industrial system and you will learn things about it that can give you an edge and a strategy to vastly improve your outcomes. Angela knows h...ow things really work and she can validate the legit facts, street you away from hazards and point out the red flags to watch for. Angela has provided numerous consultations to myself and several of my personal friends over the dozen or so years I've known her. Every person I've referred to her has been impressed with her knowledge and proficiency and touched by her warm personality and sincere compassion. She has illuminated for me the dynamics at play in the local legal system. She's coached me on how to direct my public defender to get charges dropped multiple times. I've seen her do the same with many of my friends and usually without charging. She wants to empower and educate and isn't withholding vital information from anyone who needs it just to maximize her income. I would have expected her to get jaded and hard over the years, but when I called her up the other day, after many years without contact, she picked up immediately and gave me valuable advice and a referral right then and there, all while she was parking her car! I love this woman!

The best Attorney.

I retained Angela for a criminal defense case and was very happy the way she handled everything. She is aggressive in her defense and truly cares about her clients. She is the best Attorney in the world as far as I'm concerned.

Great Attorney

First and foremost, my case was dismissed. Angela looked over the case and immediately saw the technicalities that were grounds for dismissal. Other lawyers wanted thousands, but she took the time to show me how to get it dismissed myself without even hiring her or paying for a consultation. I still ...retained her because I didn’t feel like doing it myself, but the point is what other lawyer would do that? I interviewed several and every other attorney that I interviewed had one thing in common... MONEY. But Angela was very reasonably priced and in the end my case was dismissed. I recommend anyone hire her who is looking for an honest, hard working, highly intelligent and fairly priced attorney. P.S. I see mostly good reviews, but I also see a few negative ones. Well if you find yourself in a situation where you even need an attorney, that means you either messed up somehow or you were just in a bad situation. Either way that is not Angela’s fault. Her job is to do the best she can to get YOU out of trouble. So just because someone isn’t satisfied with the outcome of a well fought case doesn’t mean she is to blame. And unless there is a trial happening, then she doesn’t need to be present just to request a continuance.

This Lady Fights!

I had 4 drug cases, 2 for sales. I previously paid another lawyer $25,000 who did nothing but continue the case for 6 months. I was looking at over 14 years in prison and the DA wanted 9. Angela saved my life. She got me into rehab and released on probation! This lady fights til she wins!

This lady rocks!

i was arrested in 2012 on the charge of assault with a deadly weapon because I had badly injured a man twice my size who was attempting to hurt me. At first the courts show no mercy and tried to give me 6 years in prison. Then my girlfriend found this lawyer for me. At the end of the pre-trial hearin...g, Angela left the prosecutor literally speechless. The case was dismissed on the spot!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"It says on her card that she will "fight for you" and she means it. Angela is aggressive in court and goes to the mat for her clients. On the other side of that coin, she shows an impressive amount of empathy and compassion for her clients; she really truly cares about helping, which may be what drives her to work so hard on all of her cases. If I was charged with a crime, I would want Angela Friedrichs in my corner."

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
