Top Notch In My Book!

I was referred to Adam and Carol by two good friends who went through very acrimonious divorces. I have nothing but praise for both Adam and Carol along with their compassion, legal knowledge and high competency for divorce matters. Even in the face of adversity and dealing with a long arduous batt...le (sometimes while on an uneven playing field), both Adam and Carol surpassed my expectations with their legal tenacity, honesty, skillful negotiations and due diligence on all aspects of my divorce proceedings. They were always readily available and articulated all legal matters easily and professionally. I highly recommend the firm of Most & Schneid!!!

Divorce

Adam is smart and can be tenacious when needed. He knows the law backwards and forwards and genuinely wants the best for his client. He is steady-- does not get rattled under pressure or when dealing with an overly aggressive counterpart. My divorce process lasted nearly a year and Adam made sure ...things kept moving towards a resolution. He was sympathetic towards some of the more challenging issues I had to manage through but also was direct when need be about my options and the implications of my decisions.

I have litigated with Adam over a period of years & he is zealous, clever & tenacious. Adam is not afraid of older more experienced lawyers & stands his ground without being unpleasant.

  • 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.
