Knowledgeable attorney
Mr. Fricke has been our family lawyer for about 5 years. He has done an amazing job representing my family and I. He always exceeds expectations and informs us on everything going on.

tremendous help
A few years ago, I was involved in a car accident. Due to my injuries, I hired an attorney who seemingly disappeared. I was in crisis after calling the court and finding out my case had been dismissed due to my former attorney. I was referred to Mr. Fricke by a friend. After explaining my situati...

Supports his clients and their family during the time of uncertainty
Wayne Fricke is a terrific lawyer who knows the law. The following are only several of many ways Mr. Fricke supported me during my time of crisis: 1. Explained the charges against me in a manner that I understood, as opposed to using law terms that I did not understand. 2. Was always available, ...

Poorly represented. Would not recommend.
Wayne Fricke did a horrible job representing me. He was extremely slow in responding to phone calls, emails. On the day of my hearing Mr. Fricke showed up late. I had to beg the judge to not strike our motion. When he did arrive, he said very little, wasn't eloquent, and failed to point out the salie...
The doctor who wrote this comment, does not divulge that the anti harassment order entered against him, was done so when represented by a different attorney. The District Court judge actually asked me if I had spoken to the other attorney prior to agreeing to represent him. I was stuck with the "facts" that had been developed and he insisted that we do things his way, against my advice. His details were not in the record, which means that they could not be used. He did not like my answers to his questions, nor did he like his prior attorney and blamed him for the initial order. I had suggested that he hire another attorney before the last hearing, but he refused. The fact that he has had upwards of 10 attorneys by his count(he apparently cannot keep track of the number) says it all. The only thing accurate is that I was late (by two minutes) due to parking limitations at the Thurston County courthouse. I should have listened to my staff and withdrew months ago. Lesson learned.
"I endorse this lawyer. Wayne has been one of the best criminal defense lawyers in the State for decades."
"I endorse this lawyer.I have referred many clients to Wayne and each and everyone has been cared for with great legal ability and compassion."
