Barry Edwards- involved, knows inside track in court room, how to deal with process and judges

Barry was a great attorney with a lot of experience. He had intimate knowledge of the legal process and a lot of experience with different judges and lawyers. He was almost always available by cell and email and responded quickly to questions and concerns.

Concerned and Caring

Barry Edwards has proven himself to be not only articulate and well-informed, but also concerned and caring about his clients. He has gone beyond what was expected in researching, gathering facts, and keeping on top of my issue, and has shown the utmost in professionalism. Even though busy, Barry mad...e me feel that my case was at the top of the stack. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for competent help with their legal matters.
