Statifide Customer

I joined a prepaid legal group some years ago and have used it f; however, three years ago, I retired. Wanting to provide for my brother and his,s children, I realize a trust would satisfy my needs; since I am single with no children, only a brother, a niece, and a nephew to leave my possessions wit...h. I contacted Leagal Sheild and was refered to Mr. Edwards a appointment was set the rest went as a hot knife through butter. I say the following when my day is complete and I can do no more; Life is as it should be for me. Very pleased; is how I feel about Mr. Edwards's work. Thank, you, Mr. Edwards for your kindness and service.

Excellent Attorney & Service

After much research I chose Mr. Edwards to handle a matter concerning an out of state inheritance. Because of extenuating factors, it was a complex issue but he provided a solution that was satisfactory to all parties in helping to get the funds released. During all of my interactions with Mr. Edw...ards, he was courteous and professional and most importantly, well versed in Probate law. I was especially impressed in his confidence that the action proposed and taken would suffice in handling the matter. I also appreciated his set fee structure which was reasonable and fair. I highly recommend Edwards Legal and would not hesitate to retain his legal services again.

We highly recommend Fred W. Edwards.

We were very happy to find Mr Edward. He is the most efficient attorney we have met in years. The knowledge he has in his professions shows through immediately. He puts you at ease, listens, asks questions and then gives sound advice. We had a bad feeling that our trust was incomplete. He reviewed i...t and confirmed the need to update and add very important legal structure and documentation. Now we can relax in our daily living knowing that our family is protected! We will refer him to everyone we know and meet without hesitation!

Outstanding representation!

Let me begin by commending this brilliant attorney! He was referred through my best friend during a heart to heart conversation. It was during this conversation that my friend shared his incredible experience about a similar scenario. By simply picking up the telephone I was able to schedule an app...ointment regarding my defense. When I arrived we sat down and he discussed the step by step procedure. There were few instructions he gave me including taking two credit literacy courses and retrieving my financial files. During the process I had several questions which were answered promptly. A meeting with the trustee was scheduled and soon after I received an e-mail containing the bankruptcy discharge. If you are on the fence about a bankruptcy, please consult this firm. You will thank me later!

Excellent, excellent from beginning to end

I needed a living trust but was so stressed about starting the procedure. I was so delighted with the expertise, clear explanation and kindness in drawing up these necessary documents. What a relief. I was astounded at the care taken to prepare the complete set of documents that answer my every ne...ed and concern in this matter. A true blessing for me to have this wonderful attorney guide me step by step through the procedure.

  • 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.
