Empathetic Brilliant Attorney

When one finds themselves subject to the justice system it can often be overwhelming and scary. You need an incredibly smart and proffesional lawyer to put you at ease. Edward Shkolnikov is that lawyer. When you work with him he takes on the full weight and responsiblity of the case and then clearly ...and percisely tells you what he expects from his clients. When you see him in court you realize he is comfortable and well equipt to handle the situtaion. My personal experience threatened my future and that of my daughter and it was clear that Mr.Shkolnikov displayed a great deal of empathy. I felt like he was with me from begining until the end. Lawyers can not just be interested in money and still be good at what they do, they need to be real people who understand that your future hangs in the balance and it is all in their hands. If I face the judicial system again there would be no one better and no one I would rather have in my corner.

Thank you so much!

Edward is amazing and such a pleasure to work with. He makes everything so simple and less stressful. I know I was an emotional wreck and probably a pain to listen to. I called so many times with a million questions and concerns and he answered each and everyone without an ounce of irritation. He lis...tened and addresssed my every concern. Edward is so knowledgeable and he got me through what felt like a never ending battle with great results!

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."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"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."
