Professional and Great Attorney

Mr. Wallace is the best of the best. He handled the case successfully, I had a restraining order was filed against me. Mr. Wallace gathered all the information, supporting documents, and evidences to show them to the judge to help my case. The hearing did not last that long and the judge dismissed th...e case that was filled against me. Mr. Wallace is very supportive, knowledgeable, helpful, patient, intelligent, amazing, and friendly. He was always encouraging me and providing the right legal advices. I truly recommend Mr. Wallace for the legal issues that you may have without any hesitation. Thank you so much Mr. Wallace and the world needs more attorneys like you. God bless you and your family!

100% Satisfied

I had been procrastinating on making a will and trust for my wife and I. I called Ed on the phone. He answered all my questions and explained how easy and straightforward the process would be. We made the decision to get this important task done. He was extremely helpful and it was much more plea...sant and easier than I imagined. I highly recommend him.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
