Compassionate & Knowledgeable. The Best.

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!

He's the best there is.

I have used Paul a few times now. About 2+ years ago, I was looking at a measure 11 on my record and the stress level was beyond bearable . When I hired Paul he was kind, considerate, and understood my problems and told me he would take care of everything. He is a professional and knows what he's doi...ng and I recommend him above all others. He was able to get me off of the hell that was upon me and now using him again for another issue I'm dealing with. I recommend no other. If you want the best, then Paul is your attorney.

When you need the best

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.

Best man for the job

I retained me ferder on 2 seperate occasions. I received the best council in the state. Paul took me under his wing reassuring me he would be with me every step of the way. He exceeded my expectations by going above and beyond his duties as an attorney. Paul was able to defend me in such ...a manner, I was spared a 6 month jail sentence. I highly recommend Paul for any case. He is a go getter that treats clients as family.

Highly accessible office

We hired Paul Ferder several years ago for my then husband who had a complex criminal case and found him to be extremely helpful. He was able to GREATLY reduce the anticipated sentence from 20 years to 18 months! He was quite literally a life saver. We hired Paul Ferder again this past year and foun...d the office to be highly accessible-phone calls and emails were replied to in a prompt manner. As a parent it was nice to always be able to get ahold of a love person! The office is also extremely helpful in helping people that require accommodations based on a disability.
