One Great Lawyer!

Jon Midtgard acted like I was part of his family and he took my matters to heart and really went the extra mile for me. Jon is very knowledgeable, extremely hard working, trustworthy, loyal, great listener, and very compassionate. Jon was not only professional but also very empathetic and a great cou...nselor. He was always reassuring me that everything was going well and I trusted him to take care of everything. I needed an attorney that was understanding but also assertive in getting the job done. After hiring Jon I could rest and feel at ease during the process of my divorce / child custody case. I would highly recommend Jon to anybody who needs a strong, intelligent, hard working, trust worthy attorney that will go the extra mile for men’s rights.

Divorce and separation lawyer | Oct 20

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I've been practicing criminal defense for nearly 15 years and I've had the opportunity to refer several of my male clients to divorce attorneys who were wrongfully accused by their wives of various things so that they can get a tactical advantage in a divorce case. In those case where I’ve suggested Attorney Jon Midtgard (a partner with ADAM), my client’s have found a true advocate who really cares about them and their family. My client’s have told me that Jon is not “just another divorce attorney” and that “he is a real fighter.” I feel comfortable putting my reputation behind Jon Midtgard’s because I know he is honest, intelligent, effective and aggressive. He has a real passion and talent for helping men through what is undoubtedly the most difficult time in their lives. Anyone who is fortunate enough to hire Jon Midtgard will find that he will do whatever is necessary to get them the best possible result for them and, if applicable, their children."

  • 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.
