Adam Ryan Garber

Adam was great from the very beginning. He listened to me and made it clear that he heard me, understood both me and my case, and knew how to proceed. Adam kept me appraised of everything going on before it even happened, laying out the steps clearly, and taking the time to help me understand my o...ptions. Right out of the gate he told me I had a good case, and that while there are no guarantees, he felt I had a strong chance of winning in trial. However, when we discussed the options and what that would look like, he completely respected and supported my decision/preference to plea bargain if able in order to avoid the time and stress of going to trial. (Something I never have, and never want to do.) Adam advises me on what steps to take outside of court to help my case, and through a little negotiation on his part and a lot of taking his advice on my part he got the best possible outcome for me and my case! I couldn’t be happier, and the process could not have been easier. I totally recommend Adam for his skill, and his ability to communicate, listen, and explain the process.

My family and I needed to file various forms with the court; which can be extremely confusing when it comes to the language of court documents. Adam was great in explaining the information that was provided in the various court forms and made it easier for my family to understand the difference and p...urpose of each form that was being filed with the court and why it was necessary to complete and file each one in order to obtain the outcome we needed.

Adam represented me on two misdemeanor charges and I found him to be thorough, informative and zealous in my defense. He kept me up to speed on all aspects of my case at all times and was able to negotiate a very favorable finding on my behalf. I would highly recommend Adam to anyone who needed a ...great lawyer.

I had a minor traffic issue that I needed help with. I didn't know what to do or what the potential outcomes could be. I called Adam and he advised me appropriately, was honest in his assessment instead of simply "telling me what I wanted to hear" and worked with me to determine a fair price for his ...services. Thankfully my minor traffic issue remained minor and I never needed to actually have Adam "defend" me, but I know I would have hired him in an instant if I needed a lawyer. He is super smart, and communicates superbly, and I felt as though although he always had my best interests in mind, he also set very appropriate expectations for me. I am hopeful never to need his services, but I would contact him instantly if I needed a defense lawyer and would highly recommend him to others.

I had never hired a lawyer in my life, but after being arrested for 3rd degree DWI, I felt overwhelmed by the potential penalties and next steps I needed to take. Fortunately, the first legal professional I spoke to was Adam. He answered all of my initial questions and scheduled time to meet me and... my wife in person to discuss my case. After reviewing the incident, he informed me of my rights and how pursuing different options may look based on the details of the case. One point of emphasis was determining what the optimal outcome for me would be. After this consultation, I knew that we were on the same page and I was comfortable retaining him to represent me in this case. I have a career and a family. My biggest wish was to not spend any time away from either of them. I told Adam my goal would be to avoid any jail time. Due to the nature of my work, I also wanted to avoid any inconvenient probation officer meetings, random urine tests, or monitoring systems. Adam instructed me to schedule a chemical use assessment so we could understand how my use may play a role in my outcome. He also suggested being proactive in attending a MADD panel as well as taking steps to get my driver’s license reinstated. I made sure to get out in front of the issue as much as possible and complete everything prior to my court appearances as recommended. Adam had a chance to talk to the county attorney’s office prior to my first appearance. The initial offer met all my wishes for an optimal outcome – no jail or no home monitoring. I talked to my wife and although we were happy with the initial offer, if we could get reduce the charges to 4th degree DWI, the misdemeanor charge vs. a gross misdemeanor would be easier to explain to any future employer. Prior to my final court appearance, that is exactly the agreement that was reached. Not only that, but the fine was about $100 less than typically charged in that county for a 4th degree DWI. I told Adam that although I’m not happy about this incident, I’m satisfied with the outcome. I’m sure every case and everyone’s expectation for outcomes can be unique. Adam is a lawyer who will listen to the details, find out what is important, and do everything he can to achieve what is best for his clients.
