Passionate, Knowledgeable and Thoughtful

I hired an attorney who gave me very bad advice and changed the direction of my case. I fired him and hired Grace after reading her reviews and talking to the people in the Court. She was the right attorney for me to go through this horrible experience with. My case took 3 years to settle and dur...ing that time Grace was always available to me especially when I was in a crisis. She would always listen and would give me thoughtful advice. She doesn't sugar coat anything, and some of what she said was hard to hear, but it was good advice and the right advice at the time. Grace is so personable and sweet that you might think she isn't effective but she stands firm and knows her stuff in the courtroom. Anyone going through a high conflict divorce should talk to Grace before hiring an attorney.

Blessed and Badass

I was referred to Grace Edwards by my good friend who had an amazing outcome in her Custody Case. It was at a time that I needed immediate assistance and she came through right away. From our initial consultation I knew she was a badass because of her knowledge, her effective execution and her heart ...to listen through the uncertainty in my words. She also have me such valuable advice that which truly changed the trajectory of my life. Through the 2 1/2 years of probate legal suit there wasn’t a moment of self doubt in her words. She constantly reviewed my case and used her incredible knowledge and resources to make sure she showed up in court ready. She also has an incredible team behind her who I loved. We ended with a big WIN! I would highly recommend Grace Edwards in any probate matter. There is no one else I would want to be on my side. Thank you so much. Forever grateful.

Its finally over

Grace came at the right time in my life which i believe whole heartedly was divine appointment. She was so patient with me for about 3 years during the whole ordeal with probate and defended me when i didnt have a voice in this matter. So grateful/appreciative for everything shes done for me and my... daughter. Thank You grace, glory to God

Call Grace and you'll see for your ...self how confident you feel when you enter the court room when she is representing you. TOP NOTCH!

Rockstar Lawyer

In June of 2020, my ex decided she wasn't going to allow me to see my children anymore, through unsubstantiated claims. My lawyer at the time, who I had warned of these behaviors, had no response. I fired her, hired Grace, and for the first time in months had a real advocate who fought hard and knew ...what she was talking about. Grace saw me through one of the hardest periods of my life, She filed multiple motions. She was accessible and helpful. She assured me time and time again I would see my children. When we had a hearing, almost five months later we won. None of my ex's or her lawyer's false accusations stood up. Grace filed 3 motions and we won all 3 because Grace knows the system. It is no surprise that the reviews here are overwhelmingly positive. She fought hard and smart. If you need a divorce attorney and want a warrior on your side who is seasoned, compassionate and unstoppable, hire Grace
