Professional, Knowledgeable and Responsive

Mr. Eggleston is a pleasure to speak with and provides results quickly and efficiently. I can’t thank him enough for taking me on as a client. I had been trying to resolve a legal issues for over two years with a couple of attorneys in the area when a friend recommended Mr. Eggleston. From the moment... I contacted him I felt as if I was his only client. He provided me with consistent updates and made sure I understood each step of the process. He was able to resolve my issues quickly and throughout the process was very professional. I have since recommended him to colleagues of mine who all have had the same experience.

Who else but Adam?

From the start, Adam made me feel comforted, hopeful and optimistic in an otherwise miserable and terrifying experience. I can't imagine working with anyone else, the perfect combination of personable and professional. He is determined and extremely knowledgeable of the law. I was right to trust h...im with my life because he went above and beyond for me. Adam's the best of the best and I recommend him 100%! Thank you so much Adam!

Results!

Adam is everything you would hope for from a DWI layer - understanding, professional, creative, astute, diligent, informative, etc. Due to its complexity, my case lasted roughly 18 months from the date of the offense. Adam stayed interested and energized from start to finish, resulting in a full dis...missal of the BAC report and other pertinent details, which resulted in a minor traffic infraction at the close. The success would not have been possible without him in my corner. He knows his stuff, and presents it flawlessly in the court room. I could not have been more pleased with my overall experience with Adam and obviously the outcome of my case!

Professional & gets results

I was referred to Adam by a friend who he successfully represented. I was apprehensive in hiring an attorney because I knew I needed to hire the right one because like many, i had alot at stake. Adam was professional, flexible and managed to put my mind at ease. Fortunately for us both, we had a succ...essful outcome. I wouldn't refer anyone to anyone but Adam.

Adam is the best lawyer in the business. He worked hard to get me the best deal he could . He got the felony dropped to a misdemeanor which was a key for me . I will recommend him to anyone.

"I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Adam Eggleston to anyone charged with a DWI in New York State. Mr. Eggleston brings a wealth of DWI expertise to each and every case. He is a knowledgeable attorney and is a hardworking, strong and zealous advocate for his clients. Adam is an excellent trial attorney and a skilled negotiator. Anyone charged with a DWI will be well represented if they have Mr. Eggleston standing next to them in court."

DUI and DWI lawyer | Apr 02

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"Adam Eggleston has progressed at such a pace that he could be confused with a much more senior lawyer. He works day and night on behalf of his clients, consuming statutes, case law and the cutting edge defenses in his field. He has a charming way with clients, however he can become an aggressive advocate as soon as he steps into the court room. Mr. Eggleston has experience in both criminal prosecutions and defense. We are fortunate to have him work with us at Anelli Xavier but not nearly as fortunate as the clients he represents."
