Testimonials

Kathlena Edwards

This is the best attorney I have retained. He is honest, fair, and consistent. He knows his job and everything that applies to it. The 1st consult is the same outcome that the courts decide on the last day. He is the BEST ATTORNEY EVER!!! He is experienced and I have his number saved under emergency contacts. I can’t think of a legal situation he can’t handle. I just wish someone would have told me about him before I wasted my money.
