We have worked on a number of cases over the years, both as co-defendants and on opposite sides. I continue to use Mrs. Adams as a mediator and would recommend her to anyone seeking legal counsel in workers compensation defense matters."
"Ellen Adams is one of the most prominent workers compensation attorneys in South Carolina. I'm honored to have worked with Ellen at Collins and Lacy. I strongly endorse Ms. Adams."
"I endorse this lawyer. I used to work at Ellen's firm Collins & Lacy PA and have known her for over 20 years. Since that time, the firm has grown into a regional practice, and I note she is now managing partner. Ellen has always been a tremendous legal talent as well as one of the nicest persons even when she beat me. I am also proud to count her as a friend. Congratulations on your success, Ellen. Robert Reeves"
