Reliable and caring

I hired Mr. Cumberworth back in 2019 right before COVID to handle my case to get my discharged upgraded. Due to COVID everything was delayed but I can tell you that Mr. Cumberworth is reliable and does everything he says he is going to do. He communicates with you back and forth he is caring and I fe...el him as a former service member he can relate. If you need someone you can trust and get the job done I would recommend Adam Cumberworth to get the job done.

The Best

I am not going into detail about what I went through for four years from 2017-2021 dealing with the Military Justice System. I will say this though... Adam may have literally saved my life and he is definitely the only lawyer I could ever fully trust moving forward. He is open, honest, up front, and ...most importantly he does not sugar coat anything. If you are facing legal issues within the military Adam Cumberworth, is your man. Because of his hard work and dedication, I am living the life I was meant to live. My wife and I will forever be grateful for your commitment to us through the ordeal. Thank you.

Honest and knowledgeable

Trying to get my discharge upgraded was a frustrating and long situation. I was told by many people that it would never happen including other JAG officers. Obviously this was discouraging but when I hired Adam Cumberworth he walked me through the process and answered my numerous questions. He even s...topped me from making a huge mistake of going through different routes which would likely have ruined my chances. He never gave me false hope and made sure I had realistic expectations but I was assured he would do everything in his power to fight it till the end. Thanks to Adam, I was able to get my discharge upgraded, reclaim my GI Bill as well as reenlist. Definitely worth it and would recommend.

ADSEP

I am a United States Navy Chief Petty Officer stationed in San Diego, CA. I was facing an ADSEP after serving 20 years of faithful military service. My charges were indecent language and dereliction of duty of unbecoming of a Chief Petty Officer. I searched and searched for an attorney to defend me f...or reasonable price. After speaking with Mr. Cumberworth about my case he gave it some thought and called me back to say that he can help me. I broke down in tears because finally I have way forward. He took all the facts and evidence and put together a great package for my defense. The day finally came on 9/11 for us to fight for my life and career. We went in the courtroom and told the truth and I owned up to the bad choices I made. He was tactful and aggressive with the delivery of my redemption, continue to serve, and the three board members retained me. The board consisted of three highly respected Surface Warfare Officers and I could not be so grateful in their decision of seeing all the facts, evidence, and giving me a second chance to serve my country to lead Sailors and Marines. Mr. Cumberworth is and will always be a friend and compassionate attorney who works to get the best results. Thank you Mr. Cumberworth God Bless you and your family.
