Very thorough, detailed and very patient attorney!

We have worked with Adam on various personal and business related matters. We first worked with Adam related to a foreclosure defense where a previous attorney made quite a few mistakes and filed things incorrectly, etc. I asked Adam an extreme amount of questions, and not only did he answer them w...ell, he didn't rush me off the phone or out of a meeting and this was a flat rate that we agreed to, so he wasn't taking his time just to keep the meter running. He simply wanted to make sure that we were confident and comfortable with the answers and our understanding of the issues. Not only did we use Adam for ourselves, but any time people have asked if we know a lawyer who can help them with X, Y or Z, I referred them to him. He's worth talking to even if it's outside of his core area. I trust his opinion and know he'd steer us in the right direction, even if it was a referral to another attorney. Lastly, my wife and I are also business owners and we've used Adam at SRM for various legal matters for our business. He's always a pleasure to talk to, he's always calm and patient, and ultimately, it's a rare experience to have an attorney who will answer your questions with respect that you too, are an educated individual. I've found other attorneys that don't want to bother to explain, as if they perceive the explanation not to matter because you won't understand it. I've never had that experience with Adam. Give him a call and you'll see what I mean!

Excellent Personal Injury Lawyer!

He handled our personal injury case involving a serious car accident. He is a very knowledgeable and experienced trial lawyer, especially when it comes to personal injury or any types of accidents. Throughout the process, he was very professional and fought for our rights aggressively. He kept us... in the loop on a regular basis and moved the case quickly. In the end, we were extremely happy with the result. I would highly recommend Adam!

Review of Adam M. Rodriguez

During my first home purchase, Adam guided my wife and I through the headaches of a very long closing. Here was there whenever we had a question and was ahead of the game when it came to extensions, filing paperwork, and dealing with the many parties that were involved. During the closing he actually... read line by line and page by page of the 160 page document to make sure we understood everything we were signing. In fact, he was the only person involved in the transaction that I didn't have to worry about. I would highly recommend Adam.

A great advocate

Adam helped with two cases: 1. purchasing a home through a short sale that ended up not being a good deal, and 2. purchasing a home through a traditional sale. In both cases, Adam was very thorough, made sure that we did not get ourselves into legal trouble, and advocated on our behalf. We always... felt that Adam had our best interests in mind and that he was thoughtful in his behavior/reactions to each situation.

Great results with Adam Rodriguez's legal assistance

W.with Mr. Rodriguez help and response we were able to have a successful short sale just before the bank was about to claim the final foreclosure process. He saw the urgency and acted with little time, explained and answered every question we had and proceeded to finish the ordeal on time. I would... go back any time.

Relationship: Co-worker

"I have worked with Adam both as a co-worker, and later as a colleague on several cases. Adam is an experienced civil attorney who cares deeply about his clients. He is also a very skilled litigator and always fights vigorously to achieve the best possible outcome. Having known Adam for many years, I have gained a lot of respect for him both as a detail-oriented, hard-working attorney, and as a very good person and friend."

General practice lawyer | Sep 16

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I met Adam years ago when he and I represented co-defendants in a personal injury matter. At the time, I had been practicing a number of years, but Adam was just starting his career. It quickly became clear to me that Adam was not only someone who was quick to pick up on the subtleties of legal arguments and law practice, but that he had the too-rare ability to look at matters objectively and channel that gift into top-notch advocacy. Years later, when Adam opened up his own general practice, I paid him the highest compliment one lawyer can pay another: I needed a lawyer to handle a real estate matter and then, an estate matter on my behalf, and I hired him to be my advocate. Adam has my unqualified recommendation."
