Ed Flores represented me with the utmost integrity and honesty regarding my car accident. He is competitive, compassionate, and completes what he starts.

I met with two lawyers and Mr. Flores was one of them. I decided to go with Ed because I felt like he cared, his fees were fair, and I believe he had the experience. He was very proactive with my case. He saved me a lot of time and was very insightful. What I love most is that Ed is the kind of guy w...

Mr. Flores helped me with a small situation where I was trying to decide whether I need to retain a lawyer or not based on the circumstances. Mr. Flores initial assessment on Avvo was no need for a lawyer. Being concerned and not familiar with the court system, I asked Mr. Flores if I could schedule...
"I endorse this lawyer. Ed is an outstanding trial attorney, and one that I refer cases to without hesitation."
"Mr. Flores is a passionate and zealous advocate for his clients. He truly knows the law, the courts, and the system. But above all, he cares about the outcome. I give him my highest recommendation."
"I have known Edward Flores since our days in the District Attorney's Office together. Since then, I have seen Mr. Flores in all the courthouses representing his clients with the utmost care, diligence, and skill. He is an asset to the criminal defense community and will continue to excel in this area of law."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Edward Flores for many years and have had the pleasure of working along side of him for 5 of those years.He is a knowledgeable and caring lawyer.He provides his clients with a very high level of representation.Edward Flores is one of orange counties best lawyers.I would have him represent one of my own family if the need should ever arise."
"I have known ed flores 15 years. I have handled cases against him while he was a prosecuter in the D.A.'s office and cases with him as a criminal defense attorney. Ed is an outstanding trial attorney who has racked up an impressive winning record since leaving the D.A.'s office and entering private practice. He is also an honest and ethical attorney who truly cares about his clients. I endorse ed flores without reservation."
"Ed has an outstanding reputation in the community for his work and also volunteers his time to noble causes. I endorse him completely!"
"I have known Ed Flores for over 12 years having previously worked him in the D.A.'s office as a prosecutor and now as a fellow lawyer in the Orange County legal community. In my view Ed Flores is the complete package: he knows the law, he has a great deal of empathy for his clients and he fights hard. It is rare to meet a lawyer who understands not only the system, but the human aspects of each case and how it relates to getting the best possible disposition for his clients. Ed excels in these things and I would not hesitate in recommending him to anyone who has found themselves in a difficult legal situation. His reputation among his peers and the Bench is impeccable and you can count on him and trust him to provide sound and practical legal advice. He is a superb lawyer!"
"I wholeheartedy endorse this lawyer's work. Criminal defense is a specialized area of practice and it is important to have an attorney experienced in this area. Mr. Flores knows what it's like to go to trial and is experienced in handling all types of cases from misdemeanors to major felony cases. Mr. Flores can help if you or a loved one has been arrested or is under investigation for any criminal offense."
"When I first started work as a new lawyer in the Orange County District Attorney's office, I had the good fortune of getting assigned to the juvenile court branch where Ed started about a year earlier. We worked together for more than 10 years, and he was the first former prosecutor I called when I was deciding whether to start my own criminal defense practice. I can name many attorneys who, like Ed, are very bright and strong courtroom advocates. But very few of them come close to sharing Ed's level of commitment to justice, integrity, and fair treatment to all. A client who retains Ed will have a talented, hard-working advocate who has earned the well-deserved respect of judges and opposing counsel."
"I worked with Ed for several years in the District Attorney's Office. He is an outstanding trial attorney and dedicated to his clients. I have referred clients to him without hesitation."
"I worked with Ed in the Orange County District Attorney's Office. He is among the best trial lawyers I know. He is a dedicated and skilled lawyer and will obtain the best results for his clients."
