These are two things you are looking for in a lawyer when you are going through emotionally and financially exhausting processes like divorce, dvpo, custody and other family law matters. Court systems are hard to navigate when you have enough to take care as a single parent and while you are adjusting to your new reality. Brian helps take this burden off of you. He is highly knowledgeable and knows how to navigate these issues and address them appropriately. He is mindful of your finances and does a great job representing you, which is all you can ask for and expect. He listens, unlike a lot of other lawyers out there, he takes your input and advises on what the law dictates and advises accordingly. He is not brash but rather the kindest lawyer I've worked with, and I have worked with for almost 4 years. I must add that his para legal Jeff Welling has also been present to answer when Brian is attending to other clients; they are both highly responsive. I pray for continued success and well-being to Brian and his team and thank them for their time and efforts.

I have worked with Brian P. Edwards and his team closely over the past 14 months. I am writing this fresh out of an arduous, complex circumstance and trial. While results are pending, I am compelled to share my experience. What I needed: Due to having several friends who are attorneys, I’m very discerning and had my own matrix for assessing potential counsel. I needed someone who could keep the things I most cared about center to their work. This person also needed to be highly competent in every facet of representation. Due to my circumstance, I needed someone who could tame conflict, not induce it. I found that person in Mr. Edwards. My experience with Brian P. Edwards: Brian’s vast experience in the court system makes him incredibly grounded. He has seen everything and cuts through the chaos, providing clarity. His approach is pragmatic and he’s highly intentional about how he works my case, saving me time and money. Through his actions, he demonstrates that my best interests are what he’s most interested in. Highly insightful, he connected the dots in areas that I, myself, have professional experience in and didn’t notice. In the face of significant adversity, Brian demonstrated every effort to get my case settled. At trial, I had the opportunity to witness him effortlessly excavate the truth in ways that only someone who is an expert in the art and science of litigation could do. Finally, it’s evident Mr. Edwards strives to enable families to live freely in peace. With over a year working together, I can say he’s a person of substantial character and a highly talented attorney. Brian is the real deal. For those embarking on this journey: I encourage you to get an understanding of the basic elements of the process - filings/motions, mediation etc. so you know what to expect. While I know Brian would happily detail out every step if asked, his time on your case will be best spent working your case. Create a support system around you, such as a therapist, other parents going through it, work out partners, etc. Engage the right people for the right things. Good luck.

Brian helped through a very tough divorce with custody at stake. Throughout the difficult process Brian was always upfront and honest about what he thought in terms of key decisions and what I wanted. If he did not think it was a sound path, he would say so and explain why. Brian was always professional in dealing with myself, the court, and opposing counsel. In dealing with opposing counsel he was balanced in advocating for me within the law with a difficult spouse that caused many problems. I would not hesitate a second in hiring Brian.

We had a QDRO that needed to be completed several years after a divorce. Mr Edwards was recommended to us by another attorney and we couldn't be happier. He handled all the filings and paperwork in a timely manner and kept us up-to-date by email with the process. I would highly recommend him.

Amazing work from an amazing lawyer. Brian’s background in psychology was extremely helpful in my case. I could not have gotten through my divorce without him every step of the way. All of his advice was spot on and I got the best possible outcome.

As a mother of two beautiful kids and being in a marriage for 17 years. It's not easy to file and go through a divorce process. Unless you have a law firm and a trustworthy lawyer like Brian Edwards. Brian helps you out in every possible way he can. There was a time when I had lost hope after talking to one divorce lawyer and another. I felt like giving up on my case until I met Brian Edward. He ensured that I am not alone in this most difficult journey since my case also had domestic violence involved in it. Being a domestic violence victim isn't easy. The hardest part about it is to talk about it in a court room in front of strangers. Brian with his honesty and integrity brought out the truth about my 17 years of hardship that I went through in the court room. He stood by me and my kids. He fought my truth in the court by standing his grounds and ended up bringing me justice. Brian Edward and his firm are a symbol of trust. I can't thank them enough for the efforts they have put in my case. It's my personal recommendation to any fellow women / Men who are suffering from a sickening relationship. Consult Brian Edward. He is a call away.

Brian was willing to discuss and be flexible with my unique situation. I felt that i understood the process quite well at this point, and explained my intentions on how to proceed with the case. Brian had a clear understanding of the ultimate goal, and successfully guided me into an alternate way of achieving my goal, that i would have otherwise not considered. Additionally, brian provided me 100% accurate step by step direction. Per my request, ommiting unnecessary details about the process, and providing instead clear direction for me. I have my son. I could not have done it without him. Like a boss

Attorney Brian Edwards put me at ease from the start. Considering I reside out of the country, finding an attorney online was my only option. I was impressed with Brian's experience in working with children and communities, and I felt his passion for helping people. My first encounter with Brian was the consultation over the phone. I was served an order to appear in court, and the hearing was no more than one week away. I briefly explained my situation to Brian, and immediately he put me at ease. Brian helped me easily understand the court process, and how my case would move forward. I was well informed every step of the way throughout the entire process. His staff were very helpful in assisting with the process by ensuring timely submission of documents for electronic signature, as well as timely filing of all court documents, even at the last minute. I was provided with a copy of all documents filed, and all documents were edited properly. I was ordered to appear via telephone, and the court was unable to reach me at the designated hearing time. Despite this, the hearing continued, and the judge ruled in our favor.

I was referred to Brian through a friend. I originally spoke to him in as I was contemplating divorce, but within two weeks had to call him back to ask him to file my dissolution the same day. It was an exceptionally emotional day and he was kind and efficient in meeting my needs. My dissolution lasted 13 months and was a high conflict matter. I felt that I got what I paid for. Brian was always prepared. He was knowledgeable and a straight shooter. He kept me apprised of my case and answered my questions timely. He seems to have a great reputation with the commissioners/judges. I am an attorney myself (in another area of law) and still found whole of the matter incredibly stressful. But Brian and his staff made an awful situation manageable. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone.

High praise for attorneys is rare, but Brian truly deserves it in many meaningful ways. I worked with him twice. My first experience with Brian was a few years ago, when I needed a good attorney who would lead and directed me through my divorce after 25 years and fight for a spousal support. He was extremely professional, experienced, and knowledgeable. He advised me through every step of the way and addressed any questions or concerns. And yes, together we won a battle, and I got my spousal support. My second experience working with Brian was in time when I found myself in a very unfair and stressful situation.... He helped me to annul my second 5 months marriage. What impresses me the most, it's Brian's wisdom and honesty!!! I feel very grateful that I found Brian, and I absolutely recommend him to anyone for a wonderful job he always does.

Brian handled a very complicated child custody case for me after I moved in from out of State and then helped me move internationally. He was very professional and helpful and also very kind. I have recommended him to friends since then.

Brian received his degree in counseling before he became an attorney. I feel that with a background and career where listening and offering others help benefits Brian tremendously in his law practice. Brian took the time to understand my specific situation, and offered solid, well-thought-out solutions. He was responsive to my emails and was quick to let me know how my case was progressing. I felt I had an advocate and that I could trust his advice. His utmost concern was my well being, and he made me feel that I was more than just another client. I'd highly recommend Brian for your family law needs. He is professional, courteous, assertive when necessary and your best ally when you need legal representation. He's a father himself, and works hard to listen and understand his clients' needs with thoughtfulness and compassion.
