The title says it all!! After 4 years, I received notification of my favorable outcome! Although, the case was difficult in nature, Mr. Edmunds and his team maneuvered through the details and focused on what mattered the most, a favorable outcome. Starting from the consultation to final determination the entire team - intake to administration to billing to each paralegal and attorney at the firm each showed professionalism, empathy and went over and above to assist. If you want a thorough, detail oriented, meticulous, process-driven legal representation The Edmunds Law Firm should be your only choice!

My daughter was faced with a security clearance issue. We turned to the Edmunds Law Firm team to help her through the situation. Each team member was kind and compassionate and never rushed us through any phone calls. They responded quickly to each email and each time we sent a document to include as mitigating evidence, they acknowledged it. When one team member took another job, the firm's paralegals stepped in quickly to make sure there were no gaps. Thanks to Brittany, Fred, Isabella, Victoria and Austin too - and to Mr. Edmunds for the support and assembling such a great team and process to help people faced with a daunting challenge.

Alan Edmunds and his team explained the process to me so I could understand in layman’s terms. They helped me to assemble a tremendous amount of documentation in a very short time. The final dossier was extremely professional and thorough. Everything went through seamlessly. I would recommend him highly.

I am so grateful to the Edmunds Law firm; they helped me in my hour of need. They listened to my situation and handled my proposed debarment case expeditiously. Their pricing was much more reasonable than other law firms. The legal team made feel that I was in good hands. They were experienced, professional and walked me through step by step to get judgment in my favor. I would recommend this firm to all service members.

I can’t say enough about the Edmunds Law firm. They helped every step of the way including prepping all documents and making sure they were all there. I was able to settle before the hearing because of all the evidence and documentation that they had prepped! All the stress and waiting were made easier because I had them representing me. I even had a situation where they got me a new judge and to start over because of an error on the government's end! With the flat-rate fee, I never had to worry about what it was going to cost with all of the extra work also! I wouldn’t have been able to do this without them and have the confidence I have without them!!

I am almost certain I would have not received the favorable decision with my security clearance if it wasn’t for Mr. Edmunds and his amazing team. His team was quick in responding to the government and putting together an extensive packet with mitigating evidence. His team was always quick to respond to emails and phone calls, they were also very empathetic and very respectful with the difficult situation I was going through. Mr. Edmunds extensive experience was pivotal in preparing me for the hearing. Prior to this, I had zero experience in dealing with legal matters and the court system. Mr. Edmunds met with me personally on various occasions to go over my case and the strategy we would take during the hearing. On the day of the hearing the government brought up 2 exhibits against me, Mr. Edmunds firm had prepared a packet with over 15 mitigating exhibits in my defense. It was clear to me that on the day of the trial we had the upper hand. In the DOHA written decision, the judge wrote about me “he impressed me as a young man with maturity and candor well beyond his years”. Again, I am certain the hearing wouldn’t have gone as well as it did if Mr. Edmunds hadn’t prepared me so well. Mr. Edmunds law firm saved my career and what I have worked so hard to obtain; and for that reason I am extremely grateful!
For reference, I received a SOR under adjudication guideline H.

Had a couple things come up due to some misunderstanding and decided to call The Edmunds Law Firm. I spoke with Alan on the very first call and it was decided to press forward. The team at Edmunds Law Firm was professional, responsive and very helpful. They gave me the guidance to obtain all the information, documents, and other requirements necessary for them to compile and submit an appeal on my behalf and a favorable decision was made. Absolutely thrilled and I appreciate them very much. Hate to say it, but they dont charge enough. What a steal!! Thanks for your services. Now on with life!

I highly recommend The Edmunds Law Firm for any security clearance issues you may be having. Now that the Military has transited into the Continuous Evaluation (CE) review process you need to know what to do when your command receives a (CER) Continuous Evaluation Report on you from Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA). I had no idea what to do and there were little to no instructions how to reply to this time sensitive response. At the time, I didn’t know about The Edmunds Law Firm (TELF) and the CER input I submitted resulted in a denial which elevated my security clearance investigation to a Statement Of Reasons (SOR).
First lessons learned, if you receive a CER don’t submit your reply yourself. A self-submitted CER response will have little to no chance of receiving a positive reply. After my failed attempt on submitting my own reply to the CER, DCSA forwarded my case to the next and final step (SOR) before having to request to petition the court. Once again, I was going to submit my own reply to the SOR because I didn’t realize there were law firms that specialized in government security clearances rebuttals. After allowing 45 out of my 60 days to expire on the response to my SOR I searched the internet to find out if there were any companies that specialize in government security clearance issues. I found TELF in an internet search I conducted.
From the moment of my first call, I had nothing but positive things to say about how TELF handled my case. The owner, Alan Edmunds, answered my call and arranged for his firm to handle my SOR response. Alan and his firm specialize in security issues like CE and SOR and they will not disappoint you in their work to produce a professional and creditable response document. With just two weeks to respond, I was not sure if Alan’s firm could help me. Alan told me it would be challenging to submit all my documentation but he was willing to represent me in my SOR response. Alan assigned me one of his paralegals to assist in formatting my response. The experience of interacting with my assigned paralegal was nothing short of outstanding. The paralegal assembles and formats the information requested from you in a document that meets the CE/SRO submission guidelines. TELF fees are fixed and very reasonable ($1,800) considering the input required and subsequent positive result decides if you will ever work at a job requiring a security clearance.
Once the documents are collected and ready for submission you will be able to review and make changes. After your review, they will give you the documents for submission to your security officer. TELF also submits your package to DCSA as a back-up. The results from my SOR investigation came back approved and I kept my security clearance. I am confident without The Edmunds Law Firm the results of my investigation would have most likely been unsuccessful. Also, Alan Edmunds told me, if for some reason the SOR comes back denied he will represent me for a fixed price in court to challenge the SOR denial.
The bottom line: If you receive a CER/SOR hire The Edmunds Law Firm to represent you for a successful outcome to your security clearance investigation.

I received a Supplemental Information Request (SIR) from DoD CAF and recognized that I needed assistance to generate a response. I researched available attorneys and found excellent reviews for the Edmunds firm. I submitted a request for assistance on a Friday evening and received a call from Mr. Edmunds on Saturday. I retained his firm based upon that initial discussion and we started the response package on the same day. I was assigned a very responsive team who assembled the package for my response to DoD CAF. Within one business day of submitting the response, my case was favorably adjudicated by DoD CAF! The Edmunds team successfully presented my whole person defense through their comprehensive response package. I could not have achieved this result without their representation and especially not at this stage of the process. I never had to go to a SOR or formal hearing. Hire this firm if you value your career! They understand this process and they can get favorable results!
