Solid Representation
Adam Arthur is an exceedingly professional and knowledgeable attorney. From my initial contact with his firm and all the staff providing assistance, I instantly established a solid level of confidence in my representation and the care I would receive. The communication and efficiency within his practice was exceptional and reassuring during a stressful and difficult time in my life. He was very thorough and complete in his work and always provided prompt updates and details directly to me regarding my case. Throughout my entire child custody and divorce process he provided a solid and steady representation, and negotiated on my behalf with confidence and firm legal standing. His previous experiences can clearly be seen in his work. I highly would recommend Mr. Arthur to any individual who is seeking an experienced and knowledgable family law attorney. Words cannot express my gratitude to him. Thank you.

Review of Adam Arthurs Legal Services
I have used Adam’s services for just about 3 years. Adam represented me for my divorce that involved significant challenging conditions. This included, parental alienation, adverse relations between separated parties impacting child custody, mandated therapies for my family, professional custody evaluations, litigations for my parental rights, litigations for finances (ED and support) and numerous adverse situations that my separated spouse presented on an ongoing basis. Unfortunately for my entire family, including my kids and X-spouse, it was a very eventful case that required constant maneuvering. My results have been astonishing in that Adam was crucial in not only getting my kids back into my life after a 9 month alienation, I was given equal rights to my X spouse in every aspect. This required thoughtful litigation, maneuvering in court and proper direction for professional custody evaluations. This also enabled me to have additional favorable options in the equitable distribution and support payments. Just to note, Adam’s legal partners and relations in the court system yields a wealth of knowledge, respect and maneuverability that is a benefit to his clients. I have unfortunately found myself in a very ugly divorce, Adam has helped me obtain all I was legally capable to obtain and a bit more...Don’t forget, It’s not as simple as you can just obtain what is legally yours, or what is ethically right for you to have or getting back what was taken…Its, can you get it? I would start with Adam.

DO NOT USE FOR CUSTODY!!!
Use great caution before considering services from this attorney!! Intentionally misadvised me and conspired with department of social services and opposing attorney Megan Spidell to make money off my children….which resulted in loss of custody!! Intentionally communicated and charged weekend rates and conducted unnecessary services to make money!!
