Daphne D. Edwards

I strongly recommend Daphne and Melanie! I've had a very difficult case related to domestic violence, UCCJEA and interstate custody. Daphne was the top of all. Daphne and her team are extremely professional, motivated to really help people, attend each aspect of the case promptly, kind and courteous ...and most importantly really keep on focus of the needs of the client.

I hired Daphne to represent me with my divorce and custody issues. Not only was she extremely professional, she was compassionate, extremely sensitive, and always available when I needed her. She was genuinely sympathetic and concerned with my situation. She put me at ease from the first minute I me...t her and I felt like I had known her for years. She was very knowledgeable and got the job done!

Met with Ms. Edwards in person to discuss filing a foreign custody order. Sent all documents to Ms. Edwards prior to our consultation for her review so she can discuss the filing of NC petition for visitation. Paid for a consultation and her retainer fee for which she stated was "research". Ms. Ed...wards either had no interest in working with us or she was simply not qualified in this area of law. Ms. Edwards was not prepared in our consultation. We requested Ms. Edwards to file a NC Petition for visitation and she said "I told you it cannot be done because our case remains in our home state which is not correct and we have proven so. We insisted on a refund for the retainer and received it promptly after we indicated that we would contact the NC Bar Association. Ms. Edwards was very rude in her communication to us and refused to listen to information other lawyers provided to us. We knew Ms. Edwards was wrong and indeed she was. Since this encounter we indeed secured another attorney in the NC area that has no problem working with us and believes we have a solid case.

Daphne has been nothing short of a miracle worker for me as I deal with issues from Child Custody, Equitable Distribution, Child Support and more for the past 7+ years. She is a caring, conscientious, proactive and reactive, compassionate, knowledgable attorney whom I trust wholeheartedly. Daphne is ...innovative with complex family law, confident in her abilities as a lawyer, timely with being prepared for issues, listens to my opinions and above all is responsive to my needs as a client. My case is a testimony to her continued desire to be the best attorney she can be while putting her heart, soul and vast knowledge into her job of helping acheive the best possible outcome for me, her client. I highly recommend Daphne if you are in need of an attorney who puts your best interest first and foremost above all else.
