One of the best!

Adam is as good as they come. He's fair, he's straight forward, and he will go fight for you each and every day. When everyone else had turned their back on me, Adam stood with me and helped me negotiate an ugly divorce into a settlement that was fair and in the best interest of my kids! Would/Will r...ecommend any and every opportunity I can!

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.

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.

I'm forever grateful for your knowledge and support even before I hired you as my attorney

I must first start by saying from the moment that I contacted Adam he openly communicated with me and gave me advice long before I ever decided to hire him. After two months of going through the process with my command talking with military and private attorneys I decided to hire him, not only becaus...e he genuinely believed me but I also felt he was not a lawyer chasing a paycheck. He cared about my case my family and my career. Through every step of the process he was always there to talk to and even contacting me to make sure that I was personally doing okay. Finally after six long months of waiting my command decided to send me to an administrative separation board instead of court Marshall. On that day I felt the most prepaired I could for that situation. During the administrative separation board he carried out his extremely well prepared plan of attack to defend me with his vast amount of knowledge. At every turn throughout the board he fired back and defended my character in ways that I could not have done by myself. At the commencement of the board I was extremely happy that they were able to see and understand what had happened and found no basis and therefore I was retained in the United States Marine Corps. I could not be more please with the outcome and I'm not sure how I would of made it through that incredibly tough situation without having Adam on my side. If anyone is a need of legal help I would strongly recommend Adam. If nothing else call him and give him the opportunity to speak with you because if you do I believe that you have a sense of the selfless passion that he has to help everyone he works with.

Absolutely the BEST!!!

Adam was a blessing to our family; we couldn’t have asked for a better attorney. When our son got into some legal issues in the military and away from home, the amount of stress was practically unbearable. Adam was not only extremely competent in the legal field, but was patient, kind and extremely a...ttentive to this mama. He always found time to answer any questions we had, made himself available to our son, and took the time to make sure we understood what was going on in the process and why it was done the way it was in the military world. If you are unfortunate enough to be dealing with legal issues in the Military world – please know you would be extremely FORTUNATE to have Adam as your attorney!!!!
