Absolute dedicated attorney
Mr. Izell is an absolute dedicated attorney. Dedication is an understatement when it comes to Mr Izell, he worked tirelessly to resolve my civil litigation as if almost on a personal level. Mr. Izell spared nothing in my defense, he used excellent resources to strategize and execute a plan in my defense that proved itself in the end. Throughout the process of having Mr Izell defend my case, I found particular traits in him that left me feeling confident in his work and decisions. Mr Izell not only expressed his dedication in discussion but proved it in his execution of tasks as well as his honesty, his selfless service, and Superb valor. The best attorney I’v had the pleasure of working with hands down!

Highly Recommended
Mr. Izell was referred to me by a friend on a complicated estate case. He and his office were very thorough, knowledgeable and always responded very quickly. They did a good job of updating me frequently and always provided me with copies of anything they submitted on my behalf. They also maintained a compassionate awareness of the stress the case put on me. I hired him based on a recommendation and would happily pass that recommendation on to others!

Mr. Izell
Mr. Izell guided me through a difficult decision regarding divorce. He showed compassion for my situation and wanted the best for me. I appreciated his commitment to making me feel comfortable during the process by being available for questions and concerns I had. His knowledge of the law and professional contact with outside parties helped ease the unpleasantness of my situation. I am forever grateful for Mr. Izell's services. He is the attorney I will use in future needs. Thank you, Mr. Izell. I highly recommend your services.

Amazing Lawyer!
When I talked to Adam he took the time to answer all my questions in a way that made sense to me. He was patient with me since I had what felt like a hundred questions! He was knowledgeable, insightful, and took the time I needed- I never felt rushed or dismissed. I would certainly recommend him to all my friends and family!!
