Review

My family can’t thank Adrienne Edwards enough for the amazing work she done for us. She’s thorough, caring, understanding, attentive and shows up 100% for her clients. If you need a lawyer she is the one to call ! She’s a no nonsense lawyer. The case she fought for us was a NY criminal matter and wor...ds will never express how grateful we are.

Do not hire

I paid 450 for a her services, which she gave me the price. She seemed very nice and I told her I was not ready to file my I-129. When I was ready to start the process, we spoke and she told me to get more info. I got the info and told her Im ready to file. She did not ever call me back. She emailed ...me that she was on a prison call and would call me, she never did. I spoke to her receptionist and she told me she would call me, that call never happened. I ended up filing it myself, because she never made an attempt to reach out to me for 2 months. I found it unreasonable and asked for a refund and to this day I have never heard from her and Im out 450 dollars. I feel taken advantage of and I feel so bad that in my fiance group I recommended her to another person, because her fees were reasonable and she is a lawyer. I even found out later that she did not fully understand how to even fill out the form. I don't know why she took my money and never returned my calls, but perhaps she would have fumbled my case if she had it. It may never had even been sent.

Knowledgeable!

I would contact Ms Edwards again. She is very knowledgeable about how divorce and immigration issues intersect. She was very helpful to me and very giving of her time.

Super lawyer

Ms.Edwards has been my attorney four years now. To me she is the best lawyer a guycould ask for I wouldn’t want anyone else to be representing me. she kept me out of prison in 2016 when I hired her for a conspiracy case, since then I have used her for multiple other things such as moving violations, ...and probation hearings. I haven’t been let down yet and I doubt that day will come! To me she is more then just my attorney and that’s truely how she makes you feel

Love her

Adrienne is my guardian angel she got me back too my 2 children when I thought I wouldn’t be seeing them for the next 10 years she treated me like family and worked for me like I was her own child I would recommend her to everyone because she’s not gonna lie and just take your money and if there is a... fighting chance she is willing to fight for u like she would her own children and I had a federal indictment I love u Adrienne should have did this sooner

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
