Take your money and run

I hired Attorney Edwards but she didn't solve my case what she did was avoid my phone calls my emails but she certainly didn't avoid taking my money at the beginning it seemed like she was going to solve my case but she drags your case until she is paid in full Please don't waste your time pleas...e find someone honest that is really willing to help you

A hot mess

She seem as though she is extremely nice and willing to help but she is a fraud and so is her secretary Nancy. Edwards take many case loads on but don’t have the ability to multitask all her cases. Paid for a case that total up to 7500 dollars . She rarely answered the telephone , do not want to go s...ee the inmate I hired her for , no court appearance at all ,& the secretary Nancy seems as though she is in on the bull crap Edwards have going on . You ask for your money back and a price sheet . No one never calls you back and they send you to voicemail . Then promise a call at the end of the day but never calls . What’s the point of taking people money if you are not going to do what you are paid to do . Sad but I don’t recommend her at all .

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.

She’s was a God sent.

Very strong and intelligent lawyer with a lot of experience. With my inexperienced in law and being in a vulnerable situation she alway kept me updated and made me feel comfortable and confident, with her understanding of the law. Highly recommended

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.
