This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Gifted Attorney

My recent experience in a FINRA arbitration convinced me that Sam Edwards is a very gifted attorney. He was top notch. I needed a good trial lawyer fully acquainted with FINRA and its associated arbitration process. Sam was "the man." Sam and his colleagues could speak with beaucoup experience in suc...h arbitrations. He had the respect of all concerned and with good reason. It was a very impressive performance to me, a trial lawyer with 45 years of experience

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.
