Excellent Lawyer

If you need a lawyer, Ed is the one to call. He walked us through all of our options and helped us work through them (with tremendous patience at times). He is great to work with. He ended up getting us a deal that was nothing short of a miracle! Since Covid slowed everything down in the court syste...m, Ed kept checking in with us to make sure we knew what was going on. Not only is Ed smart and professional, he is caring and personable. We would not hesitate to use Ed again if needed.

Amazing Attorney

Mr. Ed has been my attorney for the past few years. He has made the process as smooth as can be. Every time I encountered anxiety about court hearings, or just confusion on the process, I give Mr. Ed a call and he has and still does provide me with most reasonable answer to any question I ask. He kno...ws his stuff, and he is willing to help. Not only is he very knowledgeable, but he is very personable and truly cares for each clients needs. If you or anyone you know is in need of an attorney, Ed is the guy to call!

If I could give more stars I would. Honest and straightforward. Worth every penny!

I was charged with felony possession of Narcotics. Ed was up front about my costs, my options and all of the unsatisfactory consequences of my given charges. Because of Covid, D.A. changes and other crazy circumstances, my case had multiple delays. On more than one occasion I could have jumped on an... offered plea deal that i believe many would have been pleased with. Each time I was offered a deal, Ed went over my options and made sure there would be no surprises. Ed was diligent, steadfast and professional through various bouts of mental instability by me ultimately convincing me to see the case thru and let him do his job. Our patience paid off and all charges were dropped. If I would have jumped to a plea I would be in the midst of 2 years probation and house arrest. Felonies are not something to mess around with and neither is hiring a fly by night attorney. Do yourself a favor and call Ed if you have any legal issues. It's as wise of a decision I've made in many years. ---C.M.

Ed deserves all five damn stars from me.

What can I say? Ed consulted me thoroughly throughout everything, guided me through the process amidst my continuous anxiety, and was able to offer me the best possible outcome in my situation in the end. I 100% recommend Ed.

Knowledgeable, honest, and approachable

Ed has been my attorney for almost 2 years battling a case against the city for some trouble I was involved with while I was in college. From the beginning he was up front and honest about my options and possible outcomes. I could not have asked for better representation. He reviewed every possible d...etail of the case and used the law to BEAT THE LAW. If you ever find yourself in a situation where you may need a lawyer call Ed. Unbeatable VALUE and most importantly he gets RESULTS!
