Unprofessional

Very unprofessional and not good with there communication skills . They are very unorganized and Do Not Respond to messages at ALL .. they will have you worried and clueless about the Case and only thing his wife will say is NO WORRIES… She even blocked my phone number so I wouldn’t be able to call h...er about the case . Even then she didn’t know who I was when I called her from my phone after just speaking with her two days ago from the same number . They are not fighters they are just hungry money and if it’s not writing them talking about money then you will never hear from them . They made us do all the work and told us that the reason was they didn’t wanna look like they was trying to win a case when that’s the main reason they was hired . I DO NOT RECOMMEND THEM AT ALL .

Great Services

I don’t know where to begin! Attorney Eddings have brought so much peace back to my family. At first we got discouraged, because he is a very busy person and unable to answer the phone every time. Once understanding that he is not a phone person and more of a hands on active problem solver, I learned... to put my fears to rest and let him handle everything. Attorney Eddings and his wife Cynthia did everything in their power to help my family. He handled a very high profile case and brought my brother home! I will forever use their services any time when we are in need!

Avoid at All Costs

I hired Eddings to handle my divorce. He failed in every possible. I could never contact him without going through his wife, who acts as a sentinel guarding all access to him--including access from paying clients. He never answered questions directly and gave a general attitude of not wanting to b...e bothered. He repeatedly accepted any offer from my wife's attorney and would tell me, "That is a good deal; you should take it" when it was clear that the "deal" was not favorable to me and could clearly be negotiated. Even to a legal laymen like me, it was obvious her attorney started high in an effort to get to a realistic agreement. Eddings was willing to take to first offer--its seems to just be done with everything. In the end, I negotiated my own terms which were at least palatable to me. Additionally, he failed to secure items of sentimental value that should have been returned to me. There was also paperwork that he failed to complete on my behalf. Eddings is a case of Buyer Beware. Steer clear unless your goal is to be frustrated, ignored, and lied to . Very unprofessional.
