Paul M Ferder

I hired Paul for various reasons due to a long list of criminal driving screw ups and an assault charge to top it off. I was a nervous wreck when I called him up. His willingness to listen to me made me feel secure. He was not only extremely knowledgeable with all my charges and the law itself, but h...e was so compassionate towards me as a human being. I never felt like I was just a client on his list. In fact, he made me feel like I was his only client and we all know that was not the case. He was always on top of things, studied my case closely, and anytime I called with questions or concerns he took my call if he was available and if he wasn’t, he called back with the most reasonable timing. His communication with me was exquisite. His colleagues knew my case just as well. Their communication amongst each other allowed me to see that they were all on the same page. Even the communication between his secretaries was phenomenal. He was able to get separate cases where both required jail time to run concurrently with each other, giving me way less jail time than what I was looking at. There was no getting around the jail time in my case so to get less time was a huge blessing. He was able to negotiate with the highest respects and get my assault charge dropped to a harassment. He made things easy for me to understand and I truly felt that he had my best interest at heart. I trusted his judgement with my life. I was so grateful to have him on my side and I would hire him again (hopefully I won’t have to) in a heart beat. Paul and his team were truly outstanding. I give them my highest recommendation!

I was facing a felony charge with a 2 year prison sentence. My court appointed attorney was able to offer me a felony charge with a suspended sentence and 4 years Felony probation. This was 18 months of back and forth court appearances after court appearances. I walked out of my last appearance an...d called Paul, left a message and was returned with a after hour cell phone call. I was greater with a kind and understanding voice of reasoning that set me at ease. Paul was truthfull and honest with me every step of the way he never told me anything that wasn't the honest truth. I was given a Misdemeanor charge with bench probation unheard of from a Felony. Paul fought for my rights. I am pleased with every step of the way with Paul and his right hand Connie.

100% the best experience I have had and will ever have with a lawyer for crime. I got charged with a crime and I have nothing on record. He got them to drop it and leave me alone thank goodness for someone that really does care about people. Very professional, he kept me updated with the case the ent...ire time and took care of everything for me. He made me feel stress free.

So i have had my fare share of court issues from a very young age and I have probably been in front of a judge around 10 times, I had always heard the name Paul Ferder inside the jail and out and it was always positive about him. Well my last two times in court I went with paul and was very happy for... all he did for me. If you need something in marion county forsure he can pull the strings so to speak and make it happen maybe even farther then that for all I know but in this county I wouldnt count on anyone else for help on a case of mine he is very kind and will make the effort for you. The case he helped me with first was in 2015 or close to, now I caught 17 felonys at once and only did 16 months inside for them and it was because I had him on my side and that was a great job on his part. But this case last month even better no jail no prison just probation on felony assault charges so he is this best in this town as far as I'm concerned. Thank you Paul ~Thomas M.
