Great Attorney
Mr. Woody handled my case excellently. Throughout the intimidating court process he did good on explaining in detail what was going on and what the plan was moving forward each step. His office staff is also very friendly and does a great job on helping with questions, giving updates, as well as setting up conferences with Adam in a timely manor. My case was dismissed upon the prosecution reviewing evidence with Adam before the trial and Adam was well prepared to defend my innocence in court had the case carried forward regardless. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking legal services.

One of the best no doubt
Adam has been the best lawyer anyone could ask for from the get go. Going above and beyond to make sure everything has been taken care of and keeping me informed with each step of the process. I didn’t just find a great lawyer, I’ve found a friend. At least that’s the way he makes you feel when dealing with whatever trouble you need him for. Definitely would use him again, but hopefully won’t ever need to.

America needs more attorneys like Adam Woody
I hired Adam in June of this year for a criminal case that was 10 years old that I had completely forgot about until I ended up in the back of a police car for having a warrant. I am from out of state and told Adam that my work schedule would make it difficult for me to make a bunch of court appearances in Missouri. He was confident that it would be a quick and easy case and would likely be thrown out with minimal effort, and his fee reflected it. That, however, was not the case. Adam stood by his word and urged me not to accept any offers from prosecutors. He continued to fight for me and made sure that my outcome was what we initially discussed when I hired him. The case dragged on for about 6 Months. Adam and his staff kept me up to date with everything that was going on and I know he made at least two appearances in court on my behalf. Our court date was scheduled for December 3rd and he was fully prepared to represent me in court and had his staff reach out to me multiple times while they prepared for court to make sure they had all they information they needed. The prosecutors finally dropped the case several days before court. To my surprise, Adam never asked for more money, even tho it was obvious he put way more work into my case than he originally thought. Adam could have suggested that I accept a plea early on, and I would have. He knew he could get it dismissed and he was going to do whatever it took to make that happen. Ultimately, that’s exactly the outcome we got. I have used multiple attorneys for business matters, civil and criminal cases and Adam is by far the best I have used. Adam is a stand up guy and one you can trust to make the best decision for you. I hope I never have legal matters in Missouri again, but if I do, Adam will be my first call.

THANK YOU!!!!!
I was overcharged by a zealous prosecutor in Greene County Mo.
Mr. Woody had the felony charge reduced to a realistic misdemeanor.
This saved not only my self respect but my reputation.
Mr. Woody kept me fully informed throughout the case and he could not have been more friendly.
He treated me and my case like it was the most important thing on his agenda.
I cannot recommend him enough if your livelihood and reputation are on the line.

Adam handled three separate cases of mine and walked me through every step of the way. I had a really good outcome on all three cases, in my opinion he is the best criminal defense lawyer in Springfield Missouri. I highly recommend him because he is honest, professional, and fights for you. Thanks Adam.

Reputable Attorney
2019 has been a difficult year... With those difficulties I needed litigation. Previously being employed at an attorney's office, I was leery in my search for a reputable lawyer. I was referred to Adam by my partner who I trust. In result, Adam has successfully depleted ALL of my strenuous issues. He has remained professional and considerate through the process. The monetary aspect has also been a relief. Attorney fees can be outrageous - fortunately Adam is focused on helping his clients anyway he can. I am forever grateful and will always turn to the Law Offices of Adam Woody for legal counsel. THANK YOU!!!

I needed a criminal defense lawyer for an incident that occurred while on vacation in Missouri. Adam was good at handling my case from out of state and I only needed to come back to Missouri one time. I was facing a felony and he got my case dismissed. I am truly thankful for his work.

1st time DWI
When I was 23 years of age I made the mistake of Drinking and Driving. A year later, I was faced with the consequences and made another mistake by not hiring the right legal representation. Instead of charging me extra to correct my previous attorneys mistakes Adam was fairly priced and handled my case with TRUE professional care.
