He's The Best!!

Mr. Edwards made me feel assured my case would end in dismissal. He took the time to explain every possible outcome, and did so with the utmost of respect. This guy is great and it's plain to see he truly enjoys his profession!! Thank you!!

He Saved My License!

I hired Preston Edwards after having yet another speeding ticket. With his advice, my license was saved. I didn't even have to go to court, he took care of everything! Highly recommend.

Superb representation!

Mr. Edwards is a consummate professional with deep expertise in defense litigation. I am extremely happy with the outcome of my case. Accused of false assault and disorderly conduct charges I needed a lawyer that would help me to reveal all of the facts and the truth. Mr. Edwards effectively cross-ex...amined and asked the right questions to reach our desired outcome of an acquittal and dismissal of both charges. He is caring, compassionate and excellent to work with, I highly recommend him and his firm, Dummit Fraden.
