Sometimes, the best legal wins don’t come from courtrooms or hearings. They come quietly — in the form of an email from a grateful client whose career just got the green light.
That’s exactly what happened in a recent case handled by The Edmunds Law Firm. The client had applied for a sensitive federal position and, like many others navigating the security clearance process, faced follow-up questions in the form of a formal Letter of Interrogatory. These kinds of letters—sometimes referred to as “Requests for Supplemental Information”—often involve issues that, if not handled properly, can escalate into formal Statements of Reasons (SORs) under Guideline H (Drug Involvement), Guideline I (Psychological Conditions), or Guideline J (Criminal Conduct).
This case had risk written all over it.
But thanks to the early involvement of our security clearance attorneys, the client’s response was clear, professional, and persuasive, without creating new vulnerabilities. The result? Clearance granted. No SOR. No hearing. Just an email from the agency confirming the favorable resolution.
And from the client, a message that said it all:
“This is my dream career, I’ve devoted my life to it, and you guys have helped me keep it. I cannot thank you enough for the work you’ve done, your attention to detail, and the support you’ve provided.”
Security clearance cases aren’t just about forms and files. They’re about lives, careers, and futures. That’s why early, experienced representation makes such a difference—especially when the issues involve substance use, disclosure concerns, or polygraph complications.
At The Edmunds Law Firm, we’ve helped clients across the country respond to interrogatories, resolve clearance concerns, and move forward—without having to go to a hearing or face a formal denial.
If you’ve received a Letter of Interrogatory or other supplemental request, get legal help before you respond. One wrong answer can trigger months of delays—or worse.
