This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Thankful to have her on my side

I hires Ms. Adams to do my divorce last year. It was not an easy case but she handled it with much care. I appreciate her commitment to my family, her work ethic, and her patience in explaining all the inner workings of the family law courts. I would highly recommend her services.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
