About Adam

I am a resident of Hoboken, New Jersey, and an associate at Davis, Saperstein & Salomon, P.C.  I concentrate  my practice in the area of trial litigation. I am originally from Marlboro, New Jersey and graduated Cum Laude from New York University, with a major in Sociology and a minor in Law and Society.

 

I subsequently attended Rutgers School of Law Newark where I earned a Juris Doctorate. During law school, I tutored first year law students in both Torts and Civil Procedure. I am admitted to practice before the state courts of New Jersey and New York, as well as the New Jersey Federal District Courts.

 

I am a member of the litigation team and concentrate my practice in personal injury litigation; including auto accidents and premises accidents of all natures.

 

I am an active member of the New Jersey Association for Justice and am currently Chairman of the Young Lawyers Division. I am also a member of the New Jersey, New York and American Bar Associations.

 

On a personal note, I love to play and watch sports of all kinds.  I've been a loyal Knicks fan, even over the past seven years.  It makes it easier because the Yankees and Giants have done so much winning!  I practice Mixed Martial Arts and have been studying Krav Maga (Israeli hand-to-hand combat) for the past four years.

 

The reason I love to fight insurance companies:  "The bottom line is that insurance companies make money when they don't pay claims," said Mary Beth Senkewicz, who resigned as a senior executive at the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. "They'll do anything to avoid paying, because if they wait long enough, they know the policyholders will die."

Review Adam Lederman

Thank you, You went above and beyond I cant say enough about Davis, Saperstein & Salomon and their staff."

Posted by YasmineThu Jan 14 2016

From the very first meeting they helped me with a difficult case. The paralegal was so helpful and explained everything during the whole process. They kept me will informed and walked me through the entire process and in the end I was very happy with the settlement I received. My attorney was very knowledgeable of my case and did a great job "Way to go Adam Lederman, You ROCK!" . I would recommend Davis, Saperstein & Salomon to anyone needing help with a legal problem. Much Thanks

Adam is an excellent attorney. His age isn't a fault, it's a bonus! He is knowledgeable, intelligent, unbelievably easy to work with and incredibly mature. His age only makes him hungrier for the "difficult" cases. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a lawyer. He knows more about personal injury law than any lawyer I've come across. Give him a chance and he'll wow you with his understanding of the law and ability to communicate with people. He's a terrific lawyer and I'd recommend him to anyone in need!
