Passive aggressive attorney

Adam is very knowledgeable in law but I feel he has taken on more cases than he can handle. Consequently your case does not receive the attention it needs. He did not present to the court that he was my attorney in a timely manner, never opened correspondence from opposing counsel (I had to make an a...ppointment to come into his office to review it myself) which resulted in missed notices of motions. He is able to take care of most of these oversights but some may be too late. He can negotiate well on your behalf but only if you agree to his decision of what you should do. I did not feel defended nor do I feel he stuck to his guns when faced with opposing counsel. Maybe if he had more help he could do a better job.

Adam Stillo

Replied last July 07, 2016

Occasionally, clients become disgruntled when they can't see the result going their way. They often lack a sufficient degree of understanding and knowledge to make an informed decision. I strive to explain all my recommendations in great depth. I understand some people become frustrated with my advice, but I have over 37 years of experience handling all types of cases. Furthermore, I am asked by other attorneys, on ways to analyze and handle those cases where they represent people and are seeking my advice. I try very hard to accomplish good results. I believe my clients do appreciate my work. I also understand that if things don't go your way, you might blame your advocate. I sincerely will do my best to handle your case.
