Brian Edward is an outstanding lawyer. He took a serious carjacking case and got it reduced to 3rd-degree grand theft auto with probation and no prison time. His expertise and dedication made all the difference. Highly recommend him to anyone who needs a strong defense attorney.

I recently had Brian represent me for 2 separate cases (probation violations.) He was beyond helpful, the public defender I had told me that my efforts weren’t enough and the state would not come down on their offer. Brian listened to me and went over all of my evidence and took the time to do the work. Both cases were resolved, and I’m so grateful that someone was finally willing to take the time to hear me out. Thank you so much!

I’m incredibly grateful for Brian Edwards. From the first call, he made me feel protected and guided me through a very stressful situation with honesty and calm. His experience as a former prosecutor really showed, he handled everything quickly and professionally, and my case was dismissed before the court date. This was my first time ever dealing with the legal system, and Brian made the whole process clear and manageable. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs a trustworthy and effective defense attorney. Gilles D.

I recently hired Mr. Brian Edwards to handle a traffic citation, and I'm extremely happy with the results. From our first conversation, he took the time to listen, understand mt situation, and clearly explain what to expect. His communication was excellent throughout the entire process. Mr. Edwards handled all the court appearances on my behalf, saving me a lot of time and stress. He reviewed my case thoroughly and negotiated a resolution that significantly improved my outcome. My fine was reduced by more than 50%, and most importantly Mr. Edwards was able to negotiate traffic school when it was not an option for me, I received NO points on my license. I highly recommend Mr. Brian Edwards to anyone facing a traffic citation or who need knowledgeable legal representation.

I can't thank my lawyer Brian Edwards enough for the incredible support and expertise he provided. Brian did an amazing job helping my family secure an injunction against my ex, ensuring the safety and well-being of me and my son. His professionalism, compassion, and dedication made a stressful situation much easier to handle. I highly recommend his services to anyone in need of legal assistance.

We hired Brian Edwards after my significant other had already been incarcerated for over a month on a charge that, from the beginning, was complete BS. Unfortunately, the public defender’s office sat on key evidence that could’ve helped dismiss the case much sooner. Once Brian took over, everything changed. Within less than a month, he got the charge dropped because the state simply didn’t have enough to prosecute. He was professional, sharp, and wasted no time getting to the heart of the matter. We are beyond grateful for his dedication and results. I would recommend Brian Edwards 100x over to anyone needing a strong, effective defense attorney who actually gets things done. Truly one of the best!

Thank you Jamie! It’s been a pleasure to help your family!

My son, only 18 years old, was facing 2 years in prison. As a parent, I was scared and overwhelmed, but Brian fought hard for us. He kept me informed, guided us through everything, and in the end, got my son a much better outcome than we ever thought possible. Forever grateful and highly recommend him!

Thank you Vickey!

If you’re looking for a great defense attorney, Brian is the guy. My son was looking at 60 months with no credit for his time he has already served and would still be on probation when he got out. Brian got him all his credit, and no probation when he comes home in 14 months. His probation officer kept pushing to get him 60 months with no credit and back in probation when released. Brian did his thing and got my son a great deal. I recommend Brian for defense attorney needs.

Response from owner

Thank you Sarah! Such a pleasure helping mitigate a difficult probation officer!

I highly recommend Brian Edwards. My son got arrested for VOP. I called Brian and he was easy to talk too and would always return my phone calls. I was very pleased with Brian's hard work and dedication in my sons case When we had the Revocation hearing it turned out better than expected!! My son spent 26 days in Lee County, Brian was able to get him time served without any more probation and fines.

Response from owner

Thank you Michelle! It was a pleasure to help you and your son out of a difficult situation. Glad to be at your service.

Honestly, I couldn't be more pleased with Mr. Edwards. I had vop. Had me out and reinstated within 2 weeks. And the topping was he had every criminal and traffic charge dismissed. Also and most importantly his secretary is the absolute best. I would give 10 stars if available 💯. Thank you both🙏💙

Response from owner

Thank you Shawn! It was such a please to help you out of your situation and I’m grateful together we were able to achieve your goals!

I have been arrested so many times for misdemeanors and 1 felony dwi in New York and now Florida as I made it my permanent residence I have never used the same attorney after the case was settled throughout my life before I met Brian and Brian has represented me probably a dozen times in Lee County I consider him my lawyer on permanent retainer lol it’s a joke between Brian and i a friend of mine that got arrested for capital murder and my friend hired Brian recently I have had a lot of experience with lawyers over my lifetime when I first moved to Florida I won’t say the lawyers Name but he’s in Lee county he’s an attorney I Refused a DWI test in Lee county with a new York suspended license due to 10,000 in fines I had to pay New York before Florida could give me a Florida license And I hire this lawyer explaining I have 2 prior dwi’s in New York but I now live in Florida permanently I didn’t submit to any test or admit I was drinking I got arrested about 10 years ago and He assured me he would get the case dropped So I paid him the money To only find out that I ended up sitting in jail for 4 months He told me to plea guilty Since I had two priors in New York, and this is a sweet deal because my New York, criminal record follows you in Florida so 4 months Was the best he could get me guess what I found out when I got out of jail my New York license that was suspended still and never transferred to Florida New York blocked me in the computer because of this Florida dwi so this lawyer didn’t advise me that I still have a New York license and the stupid lawyer didn’t know that this Florida dwi that he convinced me to plead guilty to as he kept telling me, it’s your first one in Florida Well I find out after sending 10,000 dollars to New York to unblock me so the Florida tax collector can give me a Florida license because I’m a permanent resident the lawyer didn’t know that Florida put the dwi on as a New York conviction and New York took my driving privileges away through the whole country for 25 years it’s called the 3 strike rule and he didn’t know what he was doing since this has happened Brian Edwards has been the only lawyer since that incident happened 10 years with just another bad lawyer sine Brian stepped in my life I’ve never done any jail time. nor probation I would say he’s represented me at least eight times he gets to know his clients on a personal level and he knew how to deal with the prosecutor’s office so due to a Lee County attorney that didn’t know what he was doing He messed my life up for 25 years and theres nothing I can do about it except have Brian Edwards in my corner Don’t hesitate to use him Because all people that need a lawyer after they’ve been arrested and nervous on Who to hire looking at price and is he or she the lawyer really capable of keeping them out of jail well I can assure you he’s both of them. His prices are right. And many times I thought I was looking at jail and probation to only get a surprising phone call all you gotta do is pay your fine I had a few other issues that he also has handled in the same manner and one last thing Brian is representing a friend of mine now on a capital murder case that’s how much we trust him either I or my friend researched any other lawyers for him because Brian has done not just misdemeanor petty crime stuff he’s qualified to handle a capital murder trial and he was reasonable with the money to handle a case like this because he cares for his clients Brian your the best I’m glad you’re my friend and attorney

I cannot recommend Brian L. Edwards highly enough! From start to finish, he provided exceptional representation during my case. Brian was always quick to respond, transparent about the situation and his professional insights, while still emphasizing that every decision was ultimately mine to make. His consistent communication and dedication to keeping me informed gave me peace of mind throughout the process. Whenever I had a question, he either had the answer or would figure it out, often on the same day. It was clear that he genuinely had my best interest at heart and approached my case with care and expertise. Beyond being an outstanding attorney, Brian is an incredibly friendly and down-to-earth person. I’ve enjoyed talking with him outside of the legal setting, and I’m confident in saying he’s the kind of person anyone would want in their corner. If you’re looking for an attorney who is responsive, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about his clients, Brian L. Edwards is your guy. I’ll continue to recommend him to anyone in need of legal help.

Mr. Edwards has been a great help to us for a traffic violation. I didn't have to worry about showing up to court. Once I contacted him with all of my information he took care of everything. He was able to get the results that I wanted and needed. Thank you, Brian!

Brian Edwards is an absolute miracle worker. If I could give a 10 star I would. He told me he couldn't let him see me lose my career which is my passion and that's exactly what he did. He seeked justice and justice was served. I was so scared but when he's quiet he's just making miracles happen. I can't thank him more and I highly recommend him for any case. Very knowledgeable and highly professional. He won my trust for life and i will always refer him to anyone in need of justice. My case was dismissed as it should have and I will always have the upmost respect for this man. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You truly are a life saver. God bless you and your team.
