Bradley J. Edwards is an American attorney and author specializing in victims' rights, renowned for his advocacy on behalf of victims of sexual abuse and violent crimes, particularly in high-profile cases involving Jeffrey Epstein. Born on November 16, 1975, in Jacksonville, Florida, he was raised there and developed an early interest in law and justice. He pursued higher education at Florida State University, earning both his undergraduate degree and a Juris Doctor while competing in collegiate tennis. After law school, he began his career as a prosecutor before transitioning to private practice, founding his own firm in 2008 at age 32. His firm, initially Edwards Pottinger LLC (later rebranded as Edwards Henderson), focuses on civil litigation against perpetrators of sexual assault and abuse.

Edwards gained national prominence through his representation of Epstein's victims, starting in June 2008 when he took on the case of Courtney Wild, one of the first to come forward. He represents numerous Epstein survivors, having represented over 50 victims in civil lawsuits against Epstein, his estate, and related parties, including high-profile associates, and has been involved in related litigation such as the Giuffre v. Maxwell case. He played a pivotal role in challenging the controversial 2008 non-prosecution agreement that granted Epstein leniency, successfully suing to unseal its terms and contributing to the eventual overturning of aspects of the deal. His relentless pursuit led to significant settlements and influenced public discourse on elite accountability and systemic failures in protecting victims. Beyond Epstein, Edwards has handled other notable cases involving sexual abuse and pro bono work for victims' rights.

In addition to his legal work, Edwards is an author who chronicled his experiences in the book 'Relentless Pursuit: My Fight for the Victims of Jeffrey Epstein' (2020), detailing the decade-long battle against Epstein and the corrupt networks supporting him. He has been featured in media, including podcasts and interviews, discussing the challenges of prosecuting powerful individuals and advocating for stronger victims' rights laws. He has three children, resides in Florida, and continues to operate his firm from Fort Lauderdale.
