Tim Edwards will do right by you.

We used Tim's services one year ago to get a fair child support settlement for my husband's oldest child. Tim was knowledgeable and firm in his representation of what to expect from our requests. He did get us a fair settlement even with some underhanded attempts from the opposing attorney. Due to th...e outcome of that settlement we again used his services when faced with support and visitation issues with my husband's two youngest children. He was confident that we would gain and deserved the added visitation time we desired. He is very well versed on Washington State laws and is up front with the expectations we could expect from his services. We NEVER questioned that we were being represented by one of the best attorney's in the state! Tim gave us every confidence that he was getting us the best visitation and support that we could expect in this state. He and his staff used the utmost decorum faced with some unsavory acts throw at him and his office by the opposing counsel during the course of our settlement. We appreciate all of his assistance in both cases and we are confident that he did get us the best we could get under the circumstances. We would highly recommend him to anyone needing a top notch, knowledgeable, no nonsense, attorney.

If you want to win,then this is your man

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.

You REALLY want Tim Edwards on your side...

My experience with Tim Edwards and his entire firm has been exceptional in every way. Tim is very knowledgeable, up front, honest, responsive, and a master of strategy. His knowledge of the court system, the law, and ability to read a situation are amazing. I knew after the first 10 minutes of my ...initial consultation I would be retaining him to represent me. He lived up to and exceeded my expectations. I was kept very well informed of everything happening during the multiple revisions, and modifications that I needed to go through. I was always presented with all the options available to me and was given critical knowledge to help me make the best decisions possible for myself and my daughter. Working with Tim and the entire staff at Tim Edwards and Associates was a pleasure during very stressful and uncertain times. They do all of the little things that let you know you are important and not just another case. Everyone there is willing to take the extra effort to make sure things are taken care of in a timely manner. I always heard back from someone the same day or the next morning after leaving a message. I even walked in off the street one afternoon, saw Tim behind the receptionist's desk. After I told him my problem he came in early the next morning for my appointment. I would HIGHLY recommend Tim Edwards to anyone in need of a family law attorney. I have, and will continue to refer people to his firm. You will not do any better.

I really wished I had the funds to retain this lawyer because I knew he would be the flame under my feet to help me.

Read these reviews carefully!

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 worked under Mr. Edwards while in law school and learned valuable experience about how to not only practice in the field of family law, but also how to conduct yourself as a professional. He is not only a great litigator and fierce advocate for his clients, but he also maintains his professionalism while seeking justice for his clients. I now practice in family law and criminal defense and still use daily the knowledge he taught me by practice and example."

  • 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.
