THE BEST DECISION IVE MADE

Where to even start... ive been taken advantage by other lawyers who took my profession as a pay day, past two lawyers did nothing but take money. 1yr of family court and they didnt file any paperwork they were hired for, i contactes Mr.edwards firm explained my situation best way i can.. Mr.Edwards... understood my position, said and i qoute "we're getting your son back" this statement was made exactly 48days ago..since then Mr.edwards has eliminated Supervised visits leaned against me. Where i was subject to see my son 2hrs on Thursday and 2hrs on friday. Total travel time was 7hr to 8hrs. For those 2 days. I did that for almost a yr. Mr.edwards understood the importance of my case and how much my son means to me.. how my son has been in foster house for almost a yr.. as i qouted Mr.edwards... he eliminated the supervised visits in his 1st court date, i get to spend the entire weekend and every weekend with my son, i even have the rights to drop my son to school... im so thankful for Mr.edwards expertise, Legit the Best Lawyer.. My case isnt over yet. But i know Full victory is in sight by may/june i will have full custody. All the praying landed us to Mr.edwards. Im legit happy. My son counts the days. Hrs when we can see each other.. soon that will be exact what what my son and i want. I wasted $17,500 with other lawyers and almost a yr with no results.. Mr.edwards did so much in 48days. Best decision for the fight. If this was a boardgame Mr.edwards would be the strongest character on the board.

Excellent Attorney

Jonathan Edwards was truly dedicated to my mom's matrimonial and other family matter cases. He is honest, professional, thorough, caring, personable, knowledgeable and has a great recall for details. He kept us informed along the way and always got back to us quickly. We will always be grateful fo...r his help!

Powerful Attorney

I met Mr. Edwards after 10 years of being divorced. I needed representation because I was having some issues with ex husband. Mr Edwards sat and listened to what the issues were. He made me feel comfortable. He gave me the right legal advice and support to get me thru the issue. He was very re...sponsive whenever I needed to ask him something and always stirred me in the right direction. I highly recommend Mr. Edwards to represent you for your divorce.

"I have been an adversary to Jon on a number of cases. He cares strongly about his client's cause, fights hard for positive result and has my professional respect. He is a magnificent orator, exceptionally quick on his feet and exhibits an incisive legal mind. Rather work with him than against him."
