Robert Byrne Edmondson

Mr. Edmondson made an initial impact upon me when he declared that I shouldn't expect to receive any undue windfalls from my dissolution proceedings, but that I could expect to receive every consideration that I was entitled to under the law. His assessment of the particulars in my case as well as hi...s ability to hone in on the most pertinent matters eliminated unnecessary costs and wasted time. He was very fair in his billing. For anyone that understands that divorce is a business transaction within time-tested legal parameters, Mr. Edmondson is an excellent choice. Highly recommended, as evidenced by the recommendations I've made already.

Sharp, didn't waste my time with extraneous stuff. looked the ex in the eye and said "sorry Charlie". Very upfront, got it done quickly considering how my ex just wanted to drag it out. Donna and Morgan very helpful. I felt very relieved and confident once Bob took charge. Got what I wanted and t...hen some. Cost was very fair ,especially when I compared notes with other divorcing friends! Recommend highly

I wish I had known about this database/read this review before I got into my divorce proceedings! I was referred to Mr. Edmondson from a family friend and unfortunately I am not be able to refer him. I continually struggled to understand what the impact would be for the various options that were pr...esented to me.. My first visit to his office he literally said I didn't need an attorney, no one would believe what was documented by my ex.. On the day of the hearing it's 100% the opposite! He never admitted it, but he forgot about a statue that hurt me and to this day I do not have the custody that I deserve for my children. I was not emotionally prepared for the hearing --for 35 years of practice, it seems he shoud have at least prepped me for the event..or referred me to someone who could have.. I was like a dear in head-lights unable to really "hear" what was being requested of me.. I am thousands of dollars out of pocket with litigation expenses and matters are still unresolved after almost two years. On the plus side. he was responsive to calls/emails. He did try to inform me about what needed to be done with the case, but nearly every conversation with him I still did not completely understand all the issues/decisions and more importantly their impact on me.. I did have a good experience with his assistant, she was very helpful, but agree with the comments about the receptionist. It seems her job is primarily bill collection.. so I guess that's why he hired someone with her disposition.. She was never hostile, but certainly not warm, caring, friendly.. Sigh.. I just wish I had known about this resource and acted sooner to find another attorney..

Referred to Bob through a family friend. The previous review pretty much summed it all. He was not thorough and did not give other options to strengthen the case. I felt like I was part of some social event for him at the courthouse. He kept flagging down acquaintances and colleagues he knew and cont...inued to converse with them rather than sitting me down to strategize about my case. 35+ years is making his head bigger...too conceited in my opinion. Ironically, front desk receptionist has same sort of personality. Not very friendly nor approachable. Had to call a few times reminding them to send copies of documents months after.

Atty did not explain my rights, protect my rights, fight for my rights, did not read important documents, create and explain best strategy for my case, did not provide me with documents filed by other side in a timely manner or at all sometimes, often until I found out about them and had to keep aski...ng for copy. I received one document almost two months later! This is unacceptable. Many of opposing sides arguments went unanswered because of this, and I lost a lot in my case including the judge's outlook on me and my case because of his lazy, arrogant, I'm better than you, attitude. He seems to think he is hot stuff. He is seemingly smart and has been around 30+ years and should be able to represent clients well. But he did not work to protect or fight for me. He also cursed vulgarly when meeting with me (not aimed at me, but my ex) which I did not find professional or appropriate. His receptionist/assistant is also arrogant and cold, did not send me copies of documents although she claimed to, but there was evidence they were not sent. Assistant is not warm or welcoming at all. Assistant is not an asset to office. Not good when they charge a lot per hour and can not be respectful, a hardworking advocate for, somewhat warm and welcoming to clients, and keep client informed by giving client copies of documents as soon as they receive them. I now have heard others' experienced this atty as lazy and arrogant, too. Really disappointed. I lost a lot of ground I shouldn't have by using this atty. He and his asst need to revamp their attitude and representation.
