Absolutely impressed

My son hired Adam Polllack recently to defend him in a case involving 3 legal charges. Adam was extremely knowledgeable and very prompt and professional. Every phone and email was responded in timely manner and his follow- thru was impeccable. We were thoroughly impressed with his work and we feel ...that the outcome was the best scenario in son’s circumstances. We would Absolutely recommend Mr. Pollack’s services without hesitation.

Criminal defense lawyer | Apr 19

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I've been an attorney for 25 years. I have observed many, many lawyers, and perhaps one percent of them give the kind of attention and concern for a case as does Mr. Pollack. It is my observation that when he takes a case, he is far more concerned with making sure that he has thoroughly prepared the case and advised the client fully, without concern to the amount of time that requires. I can say with confidence that if you are looking for a defense attorney who will consider your case fully and not simply try to settle out without actually examining the merits of the case to determine whether a plea agreement is best or trial is best, then Mr. Pollack is the kind of attorney you want to hire."

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.
