Previous client

Bruce Edwards was very clear about what to expect with my case. He was very prompt at returning all of my calls. If there was something that I didn't understand, he took the time to explain it. Making sure I comprehended the subject before I left his office. He makes you feel as if your case is his f...irst priority. I would HIGHLY recommend him

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
