DO NOT believe the reviews on Fiandach and Fiandachs website, everything they say and calim is a complete lie. All Edward fiandach wants is your money as soon as he's got that in his pocket GOODBYE to him and his staff doing any work. they dont even pretend to care after they get your mone, they are so rude at times it was hard to believe. starting with the worse of them all SUE, Edwards secretary. this lady has no heart and no respect. I mean really how can you expect this staff to be any good or even have any repsect for others when the owner himself encourages this type of behavior. they are suppsed to help you in a time of need instead they make the siuation worse. i understand i put myself in my own siuation but their job is to help and not judge and stand by the people who are trying to do right and follow the law and get back on track. instead they use your siuation to their advantage they will take your money and let you sink without even pretending that that isnt whats going on. please save your money. my siuations wasnt nearly as bad as all the "examples" and "real cases" they advertise on their website and i could have gotte myself the same result by appearing alone. i did all the work, made all the calls they were supposed to me. on multiple occasions offices and dmv have even told me you are getting screwed your attorney is supposed to do this or was supposed to do this weeks or months ago. and lets go back to sue, whats wrong with this lady? do you have nothing better to do but make others feel like crap when they are already down? i hope you read this and i hope it can be a wake up call to treat others better, what if someone treated your children the way you treated your customer when they need help? the good thing about this world is the way you treat others ALWAYS comes back around. please to anyone whos reading this SAVE YOUR MONEY. Good luck and God bless with your situation. read more

This is in response to the review by Paul C. His retainer agreement specifically acknowledged that publication of any information pertaining to representation in this matter by Fiandach & Fiandach on the internet shall constitute a waiver of Attorney Client Privilege to the extent that Fiandach & Fiandach may reasonably and responsibly respond with such facts and circumstances as are in their possession. Paul came to our firm in 2018 for a DWI after being previously convicted of Driving While Intoxicated in 2003, 2008, 2010, 2014. This offense involved an accident and a .22 blood test. After hearings and extensive pre-trial negotiations, Paul was offered the minimum for a felony DWI 1 and 1/3 to 4 years. This plea was fully discussed with him and he was pleased and accepted the same. At the time his plea was entered, he was given what are known as "enhancement warnings", informing him that if he did not appear at sentencing, the plea was off the table. He did not appear at sentencing and a hearing was held after which it was determined that his non-appearance was willful. Thereafter, Judge Argento revoked the plea agreement and sentenced him to the maximum of 16 years to life. He was not correctly advised by the judge of the fine, which left open the possibility of re-sentencing. Apparently at re-sentencing, his sentence was reduced. In sum, the plea we negotiated was extraordinary in that he was facing 16 years to life but would only receive 1 and 1/3 to 4 years. As a result of his non-appearance, he was subsequently sentenced to the maximum sentence by no fault of this firm, but only due to his willful non-appearance. read more

My husband and I, we live in Rochester, but he was pulled over and then arrested much more south of Rochester, close to the border with Pennsylvania. I tried for some time to find a Rochester area lawyer for his case, but each time there was anything happening with his case, the attorneys would have to drive several counties south, to represent him in court. So we were having trouble getting a local attorney that was willing to do all this extra driving (without charging us even more money!!!). This was until we found Fiandach & Fiandach, and he and his associates agreed to take my husband's case anyway, even with all the courts and the driving. And they never used the long distance as an excuse to charge us more, these trips they had to keep making to the court where my husband had been arrested. At the end, they got it so my husband had to be on restricted driving, pay fines and take dwi classes, but it was ok otherwise, especially when I think about how this case started out: all those tickets, the arrest, and so on. So, I would say these are the lawyers you want on your side. GOOD LOOKING BUNCH, TOO! read more

First off, it is not a 'police chase' if someone is looking for a safe place to pull over to the side on a pitch black road if a car with NO headlights on is RIDING YOUR ASS and you don't know who it is behind you, but that5 is what the paperwork said when they handed it to us when we showed up to court oh yeah better not go to court in your own car because then SURPRISE they tell you there taking your license without even being convicted of anything first and so you have no way to get back home when its in the middle of nowhere farming land podunk court but Thank GOD it was Mr. Fiandach with me because Ed pointed out that one of the forms wasn't signed in the right place or whatever reason and I got out of there still driving who even knows if a nonspecialist would have caught it prolly not but anyway get someone who knows what they are doing it's like you always say you get what you pay for read more

Well I had never been arrested before (and hope never to again) so, I don't know how others react to it, but at least with me Mr. Fiandach always explained what was going on, and why if we had to go back to court why we were actually going back, which I guess isn't always the case with attorneys. In any event, most importantly, he was able to keep me calm about the whole procedure during a very stressful time(divorce) in my life; when the case ended I was happy with him and how he and his firm ( the women that answer the office number when you call have obviously been doing this for awhile ) finished the case. read more

I only found out after I hired Mr. Fiandach that he was a lecturer at a local college here ( Rochester NY ) and teaches about the exact same issues that come up when you are charged with a crime, so it's not really a surprise that he is 'up on' the latest changes to the law when it comes to taking your license. In fact, when we were in court, I witnessed another attorney approach Ed and ask him for advice, which made me feel good. I would definitely recommend someone in legal trouble - if it is Criminal law - to call his office and seriously look into retaining his services. read more

Me and my husband were able to work with the best of the best. Fiandach and his team were incredible. He represented my husband who was charged with a Felony DWI in assumption during a traffic stop. He was able to get the felony charged dropped down to a traffic violation. The experience working with him was beyond satisfying. Not only is he a good lawyer and works hard during your case, he's also an exceptional human being and very caring to others. So if you're looking for the best of the best. He's the right guy to go to. Very well pleased with the experience. read more
