Professional, Respectful, and Efficient

Definitely put my mind at ease and worked hard to drop the charges against me. He understood that what had happened was a mistake and didn't judge me for it.

I love Adam!!!

Adam made me feel like he really cared about me and my case. He worked very hard, was honest with me about my case, and got back to me quickly when I had questions. I would recommend him to anyone needing a top notch attorney!

Great lawyer, love his staff!

Mr. Squiller represented me in a very emotional, terrifying case where I was falsely accused of doing horrible things. He remained calm and patient at all times even though I was a mess. Through his tireless efforts and tenacity, my case was eventually dismissed. I feel that he genuinely cares... about his clients, and I would recommend him to anyone who needs the best. His staff, especially his paralegal Katie, is awesome. Very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful at all times.

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.
