Reinstated!!!!

Let me first say that anyone who has gone their clearance possibly being revoked will know how painful it can be. Just the thought of losing your livelihood, there are not many words to describe that feeling. I am already a worry wart, so having to deal with this made my worry and anxiety 100x worse.... Like many of you, I read so many discussion boards and majority, if not all, advised a lawyer and/or hired a lawyer. I reached out to 2 other law firms prior to hiring The Edmunds Law Firm but the price tag was way too high. When I reached out to The Edmunds Law Firm, their approach when dealing with my response to the SOR was no different the other 2 law firms I contacted. The biggest difference was the price, literally half the cost that was a flat fee, no retainer! I was a bit skeptical because of the huge price difference. But I thought long and hard so I hired the Edmunds Law Firm. And I am so glad I did. BEST MONEY I EVER SPENT! Brittany was the attorney who assisted me. I had specific questions regarding my case and the military. And although Brittany was not too familiar with the military, she let me speak to another attorney, who had more experience with the military, I forgot his name. But he was extremely helpful and insightful as well. It was a pretty straight forward process, as I had to get all the required documents together and send to Brittany and her team. Once they received everything from me, they worked their magic on my response. Once it was completed, I reviewed the draft and it was sent off. Of course you have your doubts, and what ifs, and just thoughts of not being reinstated. That will unfortunately come along with this process. But the response Brittany and her team wrote was really strong and I am so grateful to them!! My career has been saved and I cannot think Brittany and The Edmunds Law Firm enough for their professionalism, timeliness, and knowledge through this entire ordeal. If you are ever in a situation regarding your clearance, please contact this law firm, you will not be disappointed!!

Excellent Service; great results

I found the Edmunds law firm through an Internet search to help me with my security clearance, which had been denied after working for the government for more than 15 months. After speaking to them and my attorney Ryan Nerney, I felt confident that I would have a favorable outcome. Attorney Nerney a...lso told me where to go so I could review their cases and outcomes to prove that they are highly successful in security clearance matters. After doing my research and validating they are highly successful, I retained their services. Attorney Nerney, reviewed my case, wrote an aggressive appeal, spoke with me every step of the way, and made sure I was ready for my hearing in front of an Administrative Judge. At the hearing, Attorney Nerney was professional, well-versed, and aggressively argued the FACTS in my case to prove I was suitable for a government security clearance. He even went so far as to ask the Judge for an expedited response because I had been on suspension without pay for 10 months, and had children to take care of. The Judge agreed to the expedited response given my circumstances, and just over two months after the hearing, I was notified that the Judge gave a favorable recommendation, and the government approved my security clearance so that I can return to work and continue my career. I highly recommend The Edmunds Law firm and their attorney's. They are well-versed in security clearance matters and have proven to me they know what they are doing. I only wish I had contacted them sooner.

Thorough and Extremely Professional

I hired Mr. Alan Edmunds to represent me with regards to a security issue I was facing at work. As a former member of the armed services now working with the Federal government, I am a bit type "A" and expected a high level of "attention to detail". His firm exceeded this standard 10 fold and was ...worth every cent. Mr. Edmunds has nearly 40 years of experience and assisted me by approaching my issue both from an understanding of the law and knowing precedence by all the cases he had handled. I highly recommend this firm and recognize it would have been foolish to not hire him. Thank you.

Attorney Edmunds and his team at The Edmunds firm provided excellent and quality service. My needs were met and that the firm was invested in me and my case. They were easily accessible, got back to me quickly, aggressive and got me the results that I needed. They saved my career. Attorney Edmunds, ...his associates, and his staff all produced the quality of an attorney that anyone would want when responding to an SOR or any other Security Clearance issues.
