Excellent lawyer

Oliver represents our family business and has for several years. He is an excellent attorney and his advice in legal matters have always been spot o. !! I would highly recommend Oliver Adams!

Posted by Robert | February 06, 2024 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Pathetic Excuse For A Lawyer

Oliver was hired by my insurance company to represent me in a lawsuit. He did absolutely nothing but send a motion for discovery and then settled against my wishes. If you need legal help, look elsewhere he is terrible and lazy.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
