wonderful team

My daughter was faced with a security clearance issue. We turned to the Edmunds Law Firm team to help her through the situation. Each team member was kind and compassionate and never rushed us through any phone calls. They responded quickly to each email and each time we sent a document to include ...as mitigating evidence, they acknowledged it. When one team member took another job, the firm's paralegals stepped in quickly to make sure there were no gaps. Thanks to Brittany, Fred, Isabella, Victoria and Austin too - and to Mr. Edmunds for the support and assembling such a great team and process to help people faced with a daunting challenge.

Security Clearance Case

I am almost certain I would have not received the favorable decision with my security clearance if it wasn’t for Mr. Edmunds and his amazing team. His team was quick in responding to the government and putting together an extensive packet with mitigating evidence. His team was always quick to respond... to emails and phone calls, they were also very empathetic and very respectful with the difficult situation I was going through. Mr. Edmunds extensive experience was pivotal in preparing me for the hearing. Prior to this, I had zero experience in dealing with legal matters and the court system. Mr. Edmunds met with me personally on various occasions to go over my case and the strategy we would take during the hearing. On the day of the hearing the government brought up 2 exhibits against me, Mr. Edmunds firm had prepared a packet with over 15 mitigating exhibits in my defense. It was clear to me that on the day of the trial we had the upper hand. In the DOHA written decision, the judge wrote about me “he impressed me as a young man with maturity and candor well beyond his years”. Again, I am certain the hearing wouldn’t have gone as well as it did if Mr. Edmunds hadn’t prepared me so well. Mr. Edmunds law firm saved my career and what I have worked so hard to obtain; and for that reason I am extremely grateful! For reference, I received a SOR under adjudication guideline H.

The Edmunds Law Firm - WON MY CASE

I highly recommend The Edmunds Law Firm for any security clearance issues you may be having. Now that the Military has transited into the Continuous Evaluation (CE) review process you need to know what to do when your command receives a (CER) Continuous Evaluation Report on you from Defense Counterin...telligence and Security Agency (DCSA). I had no idea what to do and there were little to no instructions how to reply to this time sensitive response. At the time, I didn’t know about The Edmunds Law Firm (TELF) and the CER input I submitted resulted in a denial which elevated my security clearance investigation to a Statement Of Reasons (SOR). First lessons learned, if you receive a CER don’t submit your reply yourself. A self-submitted CER response will have little to no chance of receiving a positive reply. After my failed attempt on submitting my own reply to the CER, DCSA forwarded my case to the next and final step (SOR) before having to request to petition the court. Once again, I was going to submit my own reply to the SOR because I didn’t realize there were law firms that specialized in government security clearances rebuttals. After allowing 45 out of my 60 days to expire on the response to my SOR I searched the internet to find out if there were any companies that specialize in government security clearance issues. I found TELF in an internet search I conducted. From the moment of my first call, I had nothing but positive things to say about how TELF handled my case. The owner, Alan Edmunds, answered my call and arranged for his firm to handle my SOR response. Alan and his firm specialize in security issues like CE and SOR and they will not disappoint you in their work to produce a professional and creditable response document. With just two weeks to respond, I was not sure if Alan’s firm could help me. Alan told me it would be challenging to submit all my documentation but he was willing to represent me in my SOR response. Alan assigned me one of his paralegals to assist in formatting my response. The experience of interacting with my assigned paralegal was nothing short of outstanding. The paralegal assembles and formats the information requested from you in a document that meets the CE/SRO submission guidelines. TELF fees are fixed and very reasonable ($1,800) considering the input required and subsequent positive result decides if you will ever work at a job requiring a security clearance. Once the documents are collected and ready for submission you will be able to review and make changes. After your review, they will give you the documents for submission to your security officer. TELF also submits your package to DCSA as a back-up. The results from my SOR investigation came back approved and I kept my security clearance. I am confident without The Edmunds Law Firm the results of my investigation would have most likely been unsuccessful. Also, Alan Edmunds told me, if for some reason the SOR comes back denied he will represent me for a fixed price in court to challenge the SOR denial. The bottom line: If you receive a CER/SOR hire The Edmunds Law Firm to represent you for a successful outcome to your security clearance investigation.
