On January 25, 2010, the Edmunds Law Firm received written notification of a favorable decision made by the Administrative Judge with regards to a Response to a Statement of Reasons (SOR) in a security clearance matter. The hearing for this matter was held in San Diego, California on August 19, 2009. In this case, security concerns pertaining to Guideline B, Foreign Influence, were involved. Although Applicant has foreign family members whom are both residents and citizens of Iraq, Attorney Edmunds was able to mitigate this concern, using numerous letters of recommendation, performance evaluations and Certificates of Appreciation. Attorney Edmunds also used witness testimony and then made the final argument. Upon consideration of the evidence presented, the Administrative Judge found that it was clearly consistent with the national interests to grant Applicant's security clearance.

Family law matters can be emotional for every party involved. In San Diego, individuals and families are not required to hire a family law attorney, and in many cases, they choose to represent themselves. When children and/or property are involved, however, emotions tend to run deep and the situation becomes more complicated and sticky. At the Edmunds Law Firm, our attorneys have the compassion and experience necessary to resolve family matters in a timely and efficient manner.
