Edge Law is the only law firm I would trust to represent any matter for me and my family! My attorney Ben Hamlett is a true example of what legal representation should exemplify! He took total lead on my matter and provided guidance and follow through beyond my expectations. His knowledge and reassurance demonstrated not just his expertise and professionalism, but he has a comforting personality that assured that I could trust his leadership throughout the process. I would recommend and choose Edge Law, Kathleen and her Team, especially Ben if ever in need again, you can rely on the Best job, and

I had so many "layers" of background and circumstances involved with my case. Ben Hamlet and the staff at Edge Law received *numerous* calls and emails from me, and I received prompt return calls and responses to my emails. He handled my case with the utmost professionalism and expertise. My charges were dismissed at trial and I could not have asked for a better outcome. I highly recommend Attorney Ben Hamlet and Edge Law for your legal needs.

On January 8th at around noon I was contacted by Diane in their office that there had been an emergency and could I come at 2pm on Friday, January 11th.

No problem. I called to confirm earlier today since they did not and was told she was in court but would be back for our meeting.

I arrived at 2:02 after wandering around for a minute to find their upstairs suite. I was handed some in-depth paperwork to fill out which could&apos
