Best Referred Attorney by Attorney

Mr. Eidson, is referred by my attorney’s office; whom had recently passed away during an active civil case/s. Our meeting was welcomed and most hospitable. Mr. Eidson, is exceptionally polite and patiently explains in great details, answers to my grievous concerns relating to the case/s. What takes p...lace during an initial consultation is paramount to knowing you have found ‘the best’ when hiring an attorney to represent you. I had a very good sense this is a powerful attorney, after speaking with Alicia, on the phone. She adds to his power force, understanding law. Very talented, Mr. Edison, uses his expertise in representing all forms of personal civil cases and remarkable criminal cases. Feeling very venerable there were questioned I desperately needed answers to prior to hiring, for assurance, he expertly satisfied the questions. No doubts, about him, he has extensive knowledge of handling your case, putting you at ease. I eagerly look forward to his expertise used in representation of the facts in court. After the initial consultation appointment, there is no doubt whatsoever, I was referred to the best legal representation. I will update this review after the closing of the case/s. With sincerity’s of trust, he is your best representation of law. Remember, you need power when it comes to law issues, This Attorney actively rides a Harley Davidson cycle, that speaks volumes about his confidence in character, have you ever tried to ride one? This is your Attorney, be at peace, he will not let you down. I highly recommend him personally, a powerful firm and miraculously who has not raised his fee ever!

BEWARE! He doesn't care at all and only wants your money!

I would never recommend him! If you’re looking for a honest, dependable, and understanding lawyer, then do yourself a favor and look elsewhere! I hired Eidson for my divorce because I had to act quickly and I was misguided from the very start. His legal secretary named Alicia gave me legal advice, wh...ich she is not supposed to do, because he is never in the office. Long story short- I hired him for my divorce back in May because my ex chose to abandon the marriage. In the process, my ex had begun taking belongings (which were mine and purchased prior to the marriage) from our residence and pawning it to supply his alcohol addiction. I was basically told by the police on two occasions that until I filed for the divorce, he could continue taking items from the residence. So, under Alicia's advice, we filed an ex parte order so my ex would be ordered to return items he had taken. After I received my belongings back, a court date was set in June and in the meantime I was getting proof, receipts, etc. Not even two weeks later, I received a text from Alicia asking where I was? My ex had gotten a lawyer and they had moved the court date up, but did not inform me. I had not even had the chance to meet with Eidson to prepare before court or provide proof of anything. And really all I wanted was my dog. The day of court (which was the day I received the text), I rushed in, in a panic because I was not prepared at all. Eidson had already met with my ex, his attorney, and the judge before I even got there, so I never even had a chance to tell my side. And then I felt pressured into accepting what was offered which was visitation to our dog. Eidson acted as if it were absurd for me to want my dog and stated that it was silly for him to ask a judge for visitation rights to a dog. In that moment, it was clear to me that he did not care about my feelings or my requests at all. To make matters worse, Alicia was rude on so many different occasions when I would call to simply ask a question about my case. It was like once they were paid, they didn't care what happened. It’s been several months now and they still haven’t provided me with my official documents even after several requests. I was granted visitation rights to my dog; but none of that matters now because my ex took off with him to NH and even though he is in contempt on several things (because he didn't return all items), that would of course be more lawyer fees. To conclude- All they want and care about at the end of the day is your money! They could care less about your situation and helping find the best solutions for your individual case. I hope they reap what they sow one day!!!

Hired Pat for the second time now

Patrick handled a case for me about 7 years ago so it was a no-brainer. The kids love his office by the way. They asked me to stop by just to see if he has anything new on display. But the point is that its comfortable. Patrick creates an environment that puts you at ease in a difficult situation.... I was surprised that he remembered details about the old case and we spoke about it some. Thanks Patrick, I hope I won't need you again but I know you are there when and if that happens.

Made painful divorce less difficult

Patrick was able to handle my divorce without a lot of time in court. He mediated the agreement between myself and my soon to be ex wife's lawyer to both of our liking. I can't imagine divorce is ever easy and I hope to never need his services again but I would hire him if needed.

Great lawyer and Alicia great too!

I'm a 76 year old woman who was hit by a truck while driving to see my grandson. I don't have a lot of money and the person at the body shop where my car was towed suggested I call Mr Eidson. Mr. Eidson saw me the following week and didn't charge me for the meeting. He helped me to work things out... with the doctor and the body shop and the other drivers insurance. I just wanted my car fixed but I also put some money in my pocket. Alicia dear, you are wonderful and Patrick is lucky to have you in his office. I can see why someone here said he was cocky.. He is definitely a rooster! He holds no punches does he? Just the type you want I suspect.
