Law Offices of H. William Edgar

I was given Nicole as my lawyer. At first she was ok to respond to my questions. As time went on less and less. She even took vacation without informing me she'd be unavailable. I had went here because it said they deal with cps cases which is serious and terrifying. Even though I was falsely accused, she advised me to completely give up all visitation with my child. I felt very pressured. I've since seen another lawyer which said this was the worst custody arrangement he's seen in all his career! I had been primary custodian for 12 years! I had insisted I wanted her to draft up the paperwork, but she allowed the opposing party to do so. So everything was in their favor, which I was afraid of. I asked her to include my birthday, and mother's day to be in the visitation. I was ignored. I had asked her for 1 weekend a month, same. I wasn't allowed to see my daughter for my birthday. In the end she just wanted me to sign the papers and take my money. My manipulative ex has now cut me off from my daughter, and it's killing me. I suggest avoiding this place if you have a serious, delicate matter to solve. They don't have your best interest in mind.

Bait and switch would be about the best description I could use here. I retained Mr. Porter and reviewed my case with him....last minute substitute.... Mr. Edgar. I was even billed for a ficticous "court appearance" and had to file a complaint with the Calif. BAR Association to get it cleared. Mr. Edgar also said bills for travel time to and from meetings at $250.00 / hr....? Total bill after corrections $2,500.00 for a settlement conference less than 2 hours. Immediately after the settlement conference....Mr. Edgar asked my X-wives attorney for a date. He was bluntly refused. My question to Mr. Edgar is, did you really expect a professional like C.B to accept the offer of a self made looser?

Mr. Edgar was more than happy to recieve my money and did absolutely nothing for me. It seemed he misunderstood which side he was representing, or the opposition's team was superior. Less than even zero stars.

Family law is a private matter however, I highly recommend William Edgar, case was handled with care and delivered favorable results.

I had a brief phone consultation with Nicole Anderson. She was very informative and helpful.
