The Best Criminal Defense Attorney, I recommend to everyone!

I had met with many different attorneys before, finally having the luck to meet Edward Shkolnikov. He is extremely knowledgeable, experienced, honest and very talented criminal defense attorney. Mr Shkolnikov was incredible in Court and I received the absolute best possible outcome - Not guilty for... all counts verdict from the Jury. He is a fighter and a winner. Cannot thank him enough for his help. I highly recommend Mr. Shkolnikov.

Start your review... Israel J. 01 44 minutes ago I've had the pleasure of having Edward Shkolnikov defend me in a case that developed three years ago. Throughout this time he has been a consummate professional. Edward is an excellent attorney and I can't think of anyone else I would call to handle a case. Every time he came to court, he appeared with a friendly and positive attitude. He is excellent at his work, and he gets along well with his peers. This case went smoothly for me and everything worked out thanks to Edward Shkolnikov, attorney at law. It was really my blessing to have Edward defend me in my case and I would recommend him to anyone. He's truly a five-star attorney. - Israel Joseph I

Knowledgeable and Professional

I was recently in a bike vs. car accident and reached out to the Law Offices of Edward Shkolnikov for help. Edward was honest, intelligent, extremely knowledgeable, and professional. He helped me every step of the way, including walking me through the insurance claim. He took the time to actually li...sten and was readily available to answer any questions I had. He was not only professional but compassionate and caring. During our initial consultation, he explained thoroughly what was likely to happen and how we would go about handling the case. Overall, we had a delightful experience working with attorney Edward Shkolnikov. He will definitely be our go-to for any future personal injury needs. Thanks again, Ed.

THE MAN WHO SAVED MY LIFE.

GRATEST APPRICIATION TO EDWARD SHKOLNIKOV AND HIS OFFICE.

Posted by Stan | December 27, 2014

One of a Kind Attorney!

It is very rare to find an attorney who actually cares about his clients, listens to their story, and treats them with respect. Upon meeting him for the first time, I was a little nervous to talk to an attorney, but he quickly eased my discomfort by talking to me as a normal person without judging me... or my situation. He was not Mr. Shkolnikov, but simply Ed. I will not go into too many details about my legal issue, but lets just say Ed resolved it quickly and very professionally. After hearing so many bad things about lawyers, it was nice to have the opposite experience with Ed.

"Ed is one of the most skilled and fearless attorneys that I have ever had the pleasure to work with. He takes his obligations to defend his clients' rights extremely seriously. Ed is also one of the smartest attorneys that I know. His years of experience and wide breadth of knowledge gives him a huge edge over any prosecutor that he comes up against. His clients are truly fortunate and they should rest assured that they are in very competent hands with Ed Shkolnikov as their attorney. I recommend Ed very highly."

"Ed and I have worked on several matters together, typically murder trials. Ed brings to the courtroom a presence few attorneys have. He is very thorough, jurors and prosecutors trust him, and unlike some attorneys, Ed is willing to go to trial to defend his clients. I would enthusiastically endorse Ed for any criminal matter."
