Amazing Attorney

I was referred to Mr Towers through another attorney in town. He told me that he gets things done for a reasonable rate. I called and was immediately put through to Mr Towers after I explained it was a referral. The legal matter was a very simple tenant landlord challenge involving my daughter's a...partment. This is something a first year law student could handle and way below the skill set of this attorney. Mr Towers was extremely gracious and accepted this case in spite of his busy schedule. He dealt directly with my daughter who was very stressed. At all times he was extremely professional and kind. He totally defused an emotional situation with my daughters rental situation and made her feel very comfortable. Mr Towers never made any promises about the results of our situation, but got the results we were hoping for. He is extremely honest. He Got back to us in a very timely manner. I would use him again for anything that requires an attorney. He exemplifies the best qualities of the legal profession. I have him on my speed dial.

Outstanding, Candid, Efficient

I hired Mr. Towers after meeting him for the first time and paying my $300.00 consultation fee. He is the only attorney who did not offer a free consultation, and I met with many, who after reviewing my case felt the case was too much of an uphill battle, due to the magnitude of the situation. I ...was faced with a contested guardianship case that had been on going for 4 years, with 4 attorneys representing other interested parties. Mr. Towers became number 5. Within a week, Mr. Towers had all parties, conversing, negotiating, and signing conciliatory agreements. In less then 7 weeks I was granted guardianship of the ward, and in all likely hood saved my friend's life. I could never express my thankfulness for Mr. Towers's, compassion, stamina and spirit filled faithfulness in serving others. Mr. Towers is the most competent, attorney I have ever retained and has a gift for finding the best in everyone.

Professional and Capable

Having had little experience with legal counsel, before Adam I had only hired a few attorneys for simple tasks like trademarks and IP. When faced with a landlord/tenant dispute I was at a loss for how to defend myself. Adam was professional, passionate and persistent. He inspired great confidence, an...d I felt very well-defended with Adam beside me. He's also incredibly kind, intelligent and has a great sense of humor.

Posted by Kathleen | December 21, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Family

Excellent experience with Mr. Toers as Attorney in challenging family case.

Mr. Towers was so very compassionate as he represented my sister and I in a case involving my Father. He was always available to us for consultation, was prepared at court hearings and kept us informed of any changes in our case. In addition, he was able to help us reach a very positive outcome durin...g mediation-something I never believed was possible. I highly recommend Mr. Towers and his team and am so grateful for their services during this challenging time.

He's simply the best!

I called several attorneys prior to talking with Adam Towers. I was grieving the sudden loss of a loved one and my heart was heavy. Almost overnight, I faced the real possibility of losing my home, my business- everything. I was in dire straits. Adam was calm and sympathetic. he wasn't patroniz...ing or overbearing; he wasn't dismissive. He let me talk through my concerns and the many issues involved with my case. That is why I decided to meet with him, and I am so glad I did! He never oversold what he believed could be done. He took the time to carefully explain my options. I was under no illusions that it was going to be easy or quick, but I sensed that I had found a compassionate advocate who would see me through for the long haul. Whenever a new challenge or some mini crisis came up, Adam had my back with sound advice. He always returned my calls and emails in a timely manner. He was the voice of reason and the soul of fortitude when hope was dim. Throughout this ordeal, I never felt I was alone, with Adam as my trusted counsel. I am happy to say the outcome was just as he predicted. His unwavering support, knowledge of the law, professionalism, impeccable integrity and swift action won the day! Thank heaven for Adam Towers and his friendly, dedicated staff at the Gainesville office. He saved my farm, my horses and restored my faith. I am profoundly grateful for his help.
