They helped when other lawyers could not. Alan Edmunds took a personal interest in guiding me through a difficult situation. Highly recommended.
I had a complicated case but with the advice and experience of Mr. Edmunds I was able to get a favorable decision. His office was great with communicating. Basically just gave them the information they needed and they took care of everything. This was the first time I have used a lawyer and I can say over all it was a good experience.

Security Clearance - Written Response to SOR Personal Misconduct and Security Violations{para}Dennis Smith got the job done in a 10 day period. Provided me with and excellent package, I was 99% confident that I would get my clearance back. He explained the process thorough to me. I would recommend this Law Firm to the next person.
Alan,was recommended to me by a friend. So I sent Alan an email and expected to wait awhile but Alan responded to me within a few hours I was very impressed. His awareness of my situation and his willingness to jump right in with ideas is what I was looking for. By the time I was done working with Alan he felt like one of the family. I strongly recommend Alan for any legal help. You will not only be satisfied but you will gain a new friend along the way. Thanks Alan.
I was granted a secret industrial security clearance in only a matter of days, thankful to the work of Alan Edmunds. Thank you for your help with this. If you need a customer reference please let me know, I would be glad to help.
The Edmunds Firm represented me in an attempt to remove my government security clearance. I got an immediate sense that Mr. Edmunds knew the process and understood my concerns. His firm crafted a strategy to show the whole picture beyond the numbers and the outcome was in my favor. Now I'm still at a job I love, moving forward in my career. The price was fair and the value was priceless.
Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.
The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.
Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page
Martindale Peer Reviews
Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.
The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.
What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*
• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.
• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.
• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.
Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.
Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
