The Fenchel Defense Firm represented me in a case where I was charged with a class B Felony of possession with intent to sell of narcotics.During the arrest the officers were informed that the drugs were for personal use.During several court appearances the Fenchel Defense team kept me updated and informed of every detail matter including the what it's, as it was clear I could be facing between 2 - 9 years of incarceration. The Fenchel Defense Firm remained diligent and effective while dealing with frustration and emotions displayed by myself as the case was very overwhelming.The Fenchel Defense Firm stood strong and with a showing of wrongful acts displayed by the Cortland police department and the Cortland district attorney, the Fenchel Defense Firm was able to reach a disposition that was favorable for me and allowing me to be freed from the felony charge . I strongly recommend anyone who is in need of a Defense Law Firm to choose The Fenchel Defense Firm.

We are very pleased with the service provided by the Fenchel Defense Firm. They helped us navigate through a difficult process which resulted in a favorable outcome. I highly recommend this firm!

Great place

I am a long time employee of a local University in the Area. 10 months ago I was accused of a crime I didn't commit. I contacted Luke Fenchel after reading several reviews online praising his firms success in dealing with cases of this nature. It's been a long and extremely thorough investigation. Especially with the unprecedented complexities brought on by the Covid-19 Virus and the introduction of online correspondence to exclusively deal with these multitudinous complexities. Luke was there for me the entire time. Even during some unexpected personal family crisis of his own he made the time to oversee my case. He treated me like a friend rather than just a client. And in a unanamous decision by a panel of experts I was found innocent of the accusations against me and the case was dismissed. Luke is extremely knowledgeable, dependable and quite frankly relentless. I am thankful beyond words for his guidance and support throughout what proved to be the greatest nightmare of my adult life. I can not recommend him and his firm enough.

2020 has been difficult for anyone. It is extremely terrible when you got traffic tickets with multiple misdemeanor charges. Due to my ignorance of American legal system, I felt paranoid and overwhelmed. Mr. Fenchel is very professional and always patient to answer my questions; even though he has lots of clients and he is busy. The result turned out satisfying, and he helped me have multiple misdemeanor charges drop to zero point tickets. He is student friendly, and I would definitely recommend him to my friends who might have similar issues in the future.

I was given Mr Fenchel for a public defender. I had always heard bad things about public defenders. Going into my court case i was nervous that i would get someone who was overworked ans underpaid being a public decender. I was proven wrong. Nr Fenchel was always ontime to tbe court appearances. He was amaays dressed very professional. He always kept me informed of the aspects of my case. He knows the law and did a great job bargaining with the District Attorney to get me the best possible outcome. I dont think i would have been given a better shot without him. I would reccomend Mr. Fenchel to anyone who needed a lawyer.

Very helpful and treated well.

I hired Luke as an advisor in a complex University case that was biased against us from the beginning of the process. Luke, armed with his in-depth knowledge of code, helped navigate the complex process and eventually prevailed by getting us justice. The falsely alleged accusations warranted extreme disciplinary actions which was eventually reduced to a minimal sanctioning. Luke's knowledge, professionalism, and clarity of thought is second to none. I would highly recommend Luke to any individual(s) facing any university related issues to hire Luke from the very get-go. From a work-ethic perspective, Luke makes himself available whenever necessary to ensure he answers all questions, and takes the time to meticulously plan before every meeting with the university officials.

Luke Fenchel is an excellent attorney! He came highly recommend from a friend and soon after our first meeting I seen exactly why. He’s smart, strategic, well spoken and he excels in his profession. I was facing my 3rd DWI charge when I decided to retain him. Needless to say, after my 3rd DWI he was able to get me a slap on the wrist. No jail time at all! I would recommend Luke Z. Fenchel to anyone facing criminal charges. His honesty, courtesy and knowledge is what stood out the most to me. You will NOT be disappointed when hiring him.

Great lawyer
