Adam has helped me twice - once with real estate documents and more recently with small business advice. He takes the time to explain legal concepts in more common terminology. If you are looking to consult with a kind, helpful attorney, then reach out to Adam!

Adam Woodford was excellent to work with when I started my nonprofit/ 501 c3. This was my first experience with developing a nonprofit and I wanted to be certain I was meeting all government guidelines. Adam was detailed and thorough, from beginning to end, and so patient with all my questions.

We did a FSBO sale of our primary residence used Attorney Woodford. He was insightful and provided us with practical advice when dealing with certain questions that arose during the process. If didn't answer the phone, he always responded within 24 hours. We'd use Adam again for future real estate transactions.

A couple of years ago, Adam had helped me with a landlord dispute. When I had a difficult case come before the court recently, I turned again to Adam. As we entered the courthouse, Adam went and conferred with the opposing lawyer and the judge. Adam got the case dismissed. The judge told me that I had a dodged a bullet. I am extremely thankful for the work Adam did for me that day.

Great Help with Tennant/Landlord Dispute

Adam helped me resolve an issue with an old landlord who was trying to pursue me for alleged damages from six years ago. Adam called the landlord after filing a counter claim in response to the landlord's suit and came to a mutual agreement to dismiss the case. I was very satisfied with the results!

I first met Adam because of a dispute I was having. He knew the attorney on the other side, someone that I was having the dispute with wouldn't identify. He mitigated the ascending dispute and negotiated a quite fair agreement. Due to the other party's actions, Adam is now working on a new level for us, and he is Always in contact. Very communicative and informative. He tells it like it *is*, which so far has always been good news. I would recommend him to anyone who has a problem that's up his alley, and even not, he'd be able to put you(me) in contact.
