Timothy G. Edwards

It's unfortunate to read the bad reviews people have left on here about this firm. I had a totally different experience with Tim Edwards and Associates. My final bill WAS expensive, but divorce is not usually cheap and you get what you pay for. My divorce and custody battle was stressful and ugly, a...s most are, but through it all i always felt that EVERYONE at the firm cared about ME, and showed so much compassion for what my ex and his attorney put me thru. The firm did what they could to keep my costs as low as possible, even giving me the option to do as much of the work as i could on my own. The paralegals and legal assistants also did as much of the work as they could, keeping my costs down. I was always kept in the know as to the status of my case, and communication was always prompt! I called the office several times in hysterics and someone was always willing to "talk me down" from the ledge. Phone calls and emails were always returned to me quickly, and i genuinely enjoyed talking with Tim during our 4 hour mediation. During my initial consultation, it was believed that my case would be fairly simple, and it should have been, but the truth is you can't reason with unreasonable people, and my ex and his counsel were very unreasonable. It didn't take long for my ex's attorney to dry up my initial retainer, and i was NEVER pressured by anyone at the firm about the money. (I have since paid my balance) I aways felt that they were after my best interest. My divorce drug out for a little over a year, and has been final for two years this month. I have since remarried and moved out of state with my husband who serves in the military. We recently found out that we will be transferred out of the country, and i have again hired Tim's office to handle the proper filings for the move. Again, i was not pressured for money. I know hiring an attorney is scary, and you don't know who you can trust. There is a lot of money at stake and reviews can be deceiving. As i mentioned before, if you are going into a divorce, know it WILL cost you (unless you are lucky enough to agree on EVERYTHING with your ex), and you NEVER know how a judge will rule. I was drug thru the mud, but it was at no fault of Tim Edwards or his staff, they were nothing but wonderful to me then, and even now i consider them valued friends! You will NOT be sorry if you hire Tim Edwards and Associates, they are all amazing people and i feel so blessed to have them on my side.

For $3550 my first lawyer said I would lose the house and pay $2500 a month in child support,That was unaceptable. Tim took my case,,,after 2 years of court battles with the ex, I wound up getting the house,the custody and $285 a month child support . Tim Edwards saved me more than a million dolla...rs Tim Edwards saved me more than 16 years of anguish and suffering,,,,,that is priceless. Quality is worth the money you spend. Tim Edwards did what no other lawyer could have done. I feel like I still owe him. Every time I get a support check,I think if it wasn't for Tim,things would be way worse for me. I hope I never need a lawyer again,if I do,no doubt it would be him. If you need a lawyer,it will cost you no matter what,,,so get a winner.

Did you notice that most of the positive reviews were posted in the month of August, 2013 and have similar writing styles? I did. Especially since he was my ex-spouse's attorney . At no time did he try to have my ex and me resolve matters amicably. He created situations to inflame my ex- husband so t...hat he could charge more. I don't say this as a bitter ex-spouse as I didn't have to pay his fees. I do know that Mr. Edwards tried to create anger and hatred between us. He was extremely unprofessional toward me and toward my attorney. He deliberately made disparaging remarks about me, in writing, knowing it would add fuel to the fire. Hindsight is 20/20. If you want to have an acrimonious divorce case, by all means, hire this guy. If you'd rather save yourself thousands of dollars in attorney's fees and months of anger/frustration fighting with your soon to be ex, hire someone else.

I do not know what this attorney or his firm did to piss off the South King County Courthouse but twice we have not been given any respect by the judges......and this last time we were found in contempt, only because the father of child complained (and respensented hisself) over the choice of kinderg...arden. DO NOT give this lawyer or his firm any money to help you.....throw it in the wind or find someone at Starbucks to give you advice.....the father of above mentioned child did not even graduate from highschool and won over the judge.....very dissappointed in this firm!!!!!
