Excellent Service!!

I can not say enough about Mr. Edmunds. He is very ethical and goes above and beyond to make sure his clients are taken care of. I would highly recommend him as a discrimination, civil rights and litigation attorney.

Attentive and effective

Attorney Mike Edmunds was highly effective in negotiating agreeable terms with my previous employer. He was immediately responsive and succeeded in securing a severance package that was beneficial to me and did not damage my reputation, or that of my former employer. Hiring him was well worth it for ...me and I highly recommend him.

Michael Edmunds

I don't know what to say other than he made an unbearable situation comfortable and successful. I could not have asked for a better person on my side. Thanks Mike!

Michael Edmunds

I have known Michael Edmunds for 10 years. I meet him during an employment civil litigation that my police department and I were involved in. I got to know Michael very well over the 3 years of the litigation. I have dealt with many attorneys over my 26 years of police work and I have never met a bet...ter prepared, knowledgeable and caring attorney. When you work with Michael you get one of the hardest working attorneys in the state and a person that takes a personal interest in his clients.

Litigator extraordinare!

Mike worked for me several years ago, and I knew then that he was something special. I have followed his career and watched him grow his skill set ever since. It takes several things to be a great litigator-intelligence, diligence, integrity and flexibility. Mike has these in spades. He is my "g...o to" guy whenever I need help with litigated matters.

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.
