Consultation

Spoke with Adam for consultation on possible defense charges. He was very knowledgeable and upfront about the situation. He didnt seem he cared for the money and simply said "im happy to help, if you want us to take care of this for you, give me a call or lets setup a meeting and see if you're comfor...table with our office"

"Adam is highly respected within the legal community. His appellate skills are widely recognized and he regularly serves as a resource for other lawyers. He is "a lawyer's lawyer." I have discussed cases with Adam and have always been impressed by his rapid grasp of the facts and the application of nuanced law to the case. I've been lucky to work with -- and learn from – Adam on a range of matters. Equal parts brains and tenacity, he goes to war for his clients with a mix of zeal for criminal defense work and scrupulous professionalism. I endorse him wholeheartedly, without hesitation or qualification."

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.
