Best Divorce Attorney in Atlanta

Attorney Regina Edwards is very professional and cares about her clients. Attorney Edwards responded to EVERYONE of my messages in a timely manner and was very patient with me, by making sure that I understood our goal. Attorney Edwards is here to support those of us who are scared, lost, and don't... know how to end a toxic relationship. I may have asked Attorney Edwards the same questions many times, and she would answer them and calm me down whenever I got scared. The staff at Edwards Law Firm are very professional and the office has a very good system, Thank you for your support, Attorney Edwards.

Excellent Experience

We came to Regina to modify a previous court order in a case where the mother was unstable and had failed to regularly excercise her parenting time. Regina was competent and experienced, resulting in a positive result at both our temporary and final hearing. We were thrilled with Regina's ability to ...secure primary custody for a Father in a mother's state, something that is harder to come by than it should be. We were thrilled with her flat fee pricing model that allowed us to coordinate our finances and her willingness to work with us for the end result our child desperate needed. We would have spend thousands more at another attorney and likely would not have had the same outcome. We highly recommend! Thank you Regina, we appreciate you!

Exceptional Father's Rights Attorney

Regina is an exceptional attorney. I can't find all the words to express how amazing she is. Unbelievable results. Organized, Experienced, Professionally Aggressive, Kind, Understanding, Patient, Strategic. Listen to everything she tells you to do, provide her what she needs promptly and organized, a...nd get out of her way. Help her only if she asks, and do not interrupt her. Regina, I will never forget what you did for our family. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You are changing lives for the better, that is how important what you do is, and how good at it you are!

Regina is THE BEST LAWYER for Father's Rights!

Regina is the ONLY lawyer I would recommend when it comes to Father's Rights!!! Finally, there was someone who understood that what was happening to me and my family was VERY wrong. Regina was confident in taking on my case and representing me. Regina's calm demeanor was a huge help to my wife and I ...- especially in the courtroom. I now have sole custody of my children and my wife and I are thrilled to finally have our family together and at peace. Thank you from all of us, Regina!

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.
