About Adam

My practice consists of the representation of people who have been injured due to negligence.  My clients have been injured mentally, monetarily, and physically. Very often my clients and their families have had their lives dramatically altered because of someone elses neglignece.  It is an unfortunate reality that they also usually stand at a distinct disadvantage because they don't have the resources, the experience, or the access to information that the insurance carrier for the other side does. My clients are individuals, and they have been wronged by large corporations or people who are staunchly defended by large insurance companies.  Personal injury attorneys level the playing field for people who deserve equal access to the justice system.

Review Adam Zayed

Auto Accident

Posted by

No one knows what happens in next movement On way back to home from work I & wife met with an car accident (with no fault).Car totalled and we injured severely, ended up in ER. We don't what to do next. I found Zayed Law and met Mr. Jeremy Lee, a young, energetic and talented attorney. I felt huge relieved after discussing my case. Mr. Lee was very supportive and always in contact never leaves us in the dark about anything. When we had a question we could call/email him and would have instant answer. We are happy with the final settlement. We would like to thanks Mr. Lee and his amazing team for their hard work. Certainly we would highly recommend to anyone need a Lawyer/Zayed Law Offices.

Great Attorney

Posted by

Adam and the entire team at Zayed Law Offices were fantastic throughout my entire case. You can tell that they truly care about you as a person and not just your case. When I first met with Adam about my case he made me feel comfortable and seemed like he honestly cared about my health and stress. He didn't see me as just $$ like most other offices did. He took the time to learn about me as a person and seemed like he was truly interested. He wasn't just concerned with my case. Adam and his office answered any questions I had about my case in an extremely timely manner and kept me up to date throughout the whole process. They helped me deal with the over whelming amount of medical bills I had and helped me keep them all in order. Adams office was even nice enough to send me a plant while I was in the hospital recovering from my surgery. They wanted to make a stressful and overwhelming process as stress free as possible. I would highly recommend Adam and everyone else at Zayed Law Offices to anyone I know. Ultimately Adam was able to settle my case out of court for the FULL policy limit.

Honest and Hard working

Adam was very helpful when it came to explaining all of the legal processes. He answered all of my questions in a timely manner and was always thorough with his answers. I would absolutely recommend him for anyone who needs a lawyer!

Great Lawyer! Hard Working

Posted by

I was injured at a supermarket. I slipped in a puddle due to a leaky cooler. I couldn't see the water and I slipped and seriously hurt my knees. I know it was a tough case, but Adam never stopped and never gave up on me or my case. I received a settlement that was bigger than I though I would get.

Great Attorney!

A co-worker let me know about Adam. I was hurt in a car crash and I tried to deal with the case myself. It was too much for me to deal with and I decided to get help, and that's when I called Adam. I always felt confident about my case, knowing it was in his hands. It good to know that someone who really cared was looking out for me.
