Very professional and thorough

Adam has been my attorney for over 20 years. He has always been extremely comprehensive and efficient. He just completed my Estate planning trust which was an enormous task that he made so easy. He gives great advice and great service. Look no further, you will not find better. He is a fantastic... attorney and great human being.

Posted by Michael S. | July 26, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Personal Injury

Best Personal Injury Attorney

After not having much luck with finding an attorney who would take my personal injury case, I was referred to Adam from a coworker of my girlfriend. From the moment I had my first consultation until he was able to negotiate a settlement he was nothing short of excellent, professional and honest. Whil...e this can sometimes be a stressful process, he made me feel comfortable and stress free the whole time. He regularly updated me on the status of the case and was always available if I had any questions or concerns. He didn't beat around the bush and was always honest and patient throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for legal counsel.

Great Experience

I was very blessed to encounter this lawyer. He was extremely compassionate, responsive, accurate, and committed to help me with case. I would recommend him 100 times to strangers and loved ones. If, you experience an unfortunate accident Adam is your guy to make it happen and get what you deserve....

Adam Demetri is a great attorney!

Adam Demetri is not only a great lawyer, but a good person. He was always professional and courteous. I was very anxious about the lawsuit and he alleviated any fears I had. He was always available for consultation and responded to inquiries in a timely fashion. I was dismissed from the lawsuit.... If I had not been represented by Adam Demetri, I do not believe this would have occurred.

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.
