My Saving Grace

Had a couple things come up due to some misunderstanding and decided to call The Edmunds Law Firm. I spoke with Alan on the very first call and it was decided to press forward. The team at Edmunds Law Firm was professional, responsive and very helpful. They gave me the guidance to obtain all the i...nformation, documents, and other requirements necessary for them to compile and submit an appeal on my behalf and a favorable decision was made. Absolutely thrilled and I appreciate them very much. Hate to say it, but they dont charge enough. What a steal!! Thanks for your services. Now on with life!

Favorable Decision

Mr. Edmund's firm helped me to file my Statement of Reasons (SOR) response to the DOD by providing me with a list of actions I needed to fully defend the reasons that my clearance could possibly be denied. His staff stayed in contact with me while I put together the documents requested. When the govt... denied my clearance based solely on two financial issues, I sought his services for an appeal. We spoke several times on the phone and was provided a list of things to practice for a hearing testimony. On the day of the hearing, we met in person and went over the case. He accompanied me to the hearing, minimized my interaction as I was quite nervous. He masterfully closed his argument with a final question for me that I believed ended up ultimately in my favorable decision and clearance restoral from the DOHA judge.

Naval Officer

Alan and his team successfully fought my case and my security clearance was fully restored. I couldn't have done it without their help! Always available for questions and I always got a prompt response throughout from the time I hired them until I received a favorable response on my appeal.

Outstanding help with my security clearance issue

Attorney Alan Edmunds did an excellent job in preparing my written appeal to the DoD CAF. They were very straightforward and in constant communication. I am most pleased with their assistance.

Security Clearance Hearing

I am quite grateful that I hired attorney Edmunds to represent me. I have approximately zero experience dealing with this type of legal situation, so I was grateful for the clarity and understanding he provided to me about the entire process. Most importantly, his representation resulted in my winnin...g a case to have my security clearance reinstated after it had been suspended. He guided me in gathering evidence and character witnesses. Beyond the hard evidence, he was able to present my case in a way that reflected my character and my passion to support my country and troops. His passion when he presented his closing argument was impressive, and I had the sense that we had really hit a home run. After our victory in the hearing, the opposition pressed on with an appeal, which Attorney Edmunds convinced them to withdraw before it even went to the appeals board. I really felt like he picked up my case, hit the ground running, guided me to gather everything I needed to win, and doggedly stuck with the case through to the very end. My hope is that I will never need to deal with such a legal situation again, but if I find myself in that situation, I will not hesitate to go back to Attorney Edmunds for representation again.
