About

Born and raised in Southern California, I attended Arizona State University from 1969 to 1973, graduating with honors with a bachelor of science degree in business management.I went to law school at the University of Idaho and graduated from there in 1978. That same year I started my law practice in Anoka, Minnesota, and have not left. If you're wondering how I ended up in Anoka Minnesota, you can blame my wife, Becky. She was born and raised here and we thought it was a good place to come and raise our children (all four of them).When I started my law office I was a solo practitioner. Shortly thereafter I went into partnership with some lawyers but, about 11 years ago I decided that my Arizona practice wasn't going to fit in well with partners in Minnesota, so I went back out on my own and expect to stay that way, more or less, for the rest of my career.Since I started practicing law I have represented individuals injured due to the carelessness of others. The defendant is usually an insurance company of one sort or another.After doing this for 30 years I have become pretty good at it. This past year I received the annual Excellence Award from the Minnesota Association for Justice. I have also been recognized as a Superlawyer by the Minnesota Journal of Law & Politics. I am a member of the Minnesota Association for Justice and the Arizona Association for Justice. I am also a member of the Board of Governors of the Minnesota Association for Justice. I am AV rated by Martindale Hubbell, which is the highest rating they give. I am certified as a Civil Trial Specialist by the National Board of Trial Advocacy. There are currently less than 200 lawyers so certified in Minnesota.

Mr. Robert took on my case when there was no ones dare to go near, due to the fact is that my case was over 5 years old and about to expired in less than 4 months. Mr. Robert took my case and never look back, les then 12 months later, he got me the complete compensation, including my back pay, future lost wages, pain and suffer and everything else I deserved. I’m highly recommend Mr. Robert to anyones who is looking for the best, honest, most experienced in any cases, and best of all his discount service. You will not go wrong with Mr. Robert, I guaranteed it.

We found ourselves in a position where we ended up in a legal battle with our city over negligence on their part that caused significant damage and displaced us from our home. Mr Edwards was everything that you want in a time of crisis. My family has trusted Mr Edwards for years and he has always done incredible work with a level of integrity that he should be proud of.

Mr. Edwards and his staff were amazing involved with my concern. Bob and his staff would call me just to see how I was doing not only physically but menally. Through many sugeries, scans, injections and doctors appointments they looked out for me. Dealing with 3 specialists and having many proceedures done tney looked out for my best interests. Bob had much knowledge in the laws in my injuries and work comp. With many insurance companies involved my case could have been very messy. The insurance companies were more interested in sueing on another and pointing figers on who should pay who all while not considering me who was just sitting on a bus! Bob made sure I was not overlooked and my injuries were fixed and I was compansated not only for what I went through but my future with a 21% disability! Bob and his staff are amazing!

In 2001 my car was totaled in a fender bender with a snowbird in an enormous RV. The insurance company was reluctant to reimburse me for my rental replacement and lost time at work. I had no significant personal injury. Mr. Edwards recommended by a Minnesota civil attorney helped me get get appropriate reimbursment for my financial losses. Last year I was rear ended and wound up with two herniated discs, one injection in my back, two back surgeries and over four months of severe pain, surgery and lost wages. Mr Edwards was supportive and reassuring and obtained a settlement which restored all my lost wages and was, in part, appropriate to the pain, suffering and life dislocation. The anxiety and disruption of my life was considerable for someone who is 71 y/o. His fee was reasonable and similar to that advertised by "discount" personal injury lawyers. I found him competent, professional, ethical, knowledgable and supportive. As the settlement was the maximum allowed by the at fault drivers insurance Mr. Edwards is continuing to explore all possible sources of additonal reimbursement for my pain and suffering.. Knowing he is acting in my behalf has let me sleep well, and get back to work full time. Whenever I call he either talks directly to me or calls back promptly. He regularly updates me by e-mail on the status of my claims. I am very grateful to the lawyer who referred to Mr. Edwards.
