Excellent lawyer with top results

Gilbert represented me in an on-the-job injury against a third party. I was crushed between large paper rolls, crushing and severely injury my hip, pelvis and lumbar spine. It was one of the worst times in my life. Gilbert not only provided excellent representation for me producing a significant monetary recovery, he also was there for me during this time. I wholeheartedly recommend him for any type of lawsuit.

Client

Gilbert Adams was my Lawyer in a personal Injury lawsuit. I could honestly not have had a better Attorney handle my case. He is honest, forthright, he took a real personal interest in me as not just a client, but as a valued person. I could go on and on, but I can sume it up and say he was absolutely the Attorney I could have hired in Texas, or any other state in the union. Thanks, Mark Godsey

Client of Mr. Adams and the firm

This lawyer saved my life at a very bad time when I sustained a terrible injury. Mr. Adams supported me in every way imaginable. He is a warrior and was able to obtain a large settlement which was much larger than the insurance co wanted to pay. These lawyers have deep roots roots in SE Texas which I think also helped. These answered my questions, kept me informed and did refer my case out to some unknown lawyer. I am very pleased with their representation. If you need a fighter on your side, better hire Gilbert Adams

Million Dollar settlement for head injury caused by fall from unsafe floor

Gilbert Adams came highly recommended when my mother fell on an unsafe, wet floor at a local restaurant causing head injuries. We decided to put our trust in him. After about a year of litigation against the restaurant, its insurance company decided to pay the policy limits of $1,000,000.00 to my mom as a result of her serious injuries. Gilbert did a masterful job gathering the evidence to make a winning case. It was easy to see that Gilbert really cares about his clients and their case. Thank you very much for taking care of my parents and for obtaining a recovery that will take care of my mom and which gives the entire Family peace of mind.

Excellent Attorney

I was injured in a bad car wreck. Gilbert was my lawyer and did a really good job at getting a great settlement, which didn't take a long time. He always treat us with professionalism and respect. The other side wanted to no part of my lawyer. Great attorney."

Medical Malpractice

Gilbert was true to everything he said. I did not always like what I was hearing but it was true per the laws of Texas. He did the best anyone could do with the information that was available. Worked hard to come out with a less that satisfactory settlement which was not his doing. He informed me up front that the end results may not be good. He did not pump me up with false confidence that things would be any better than the final out come was.

Review of Gilbert T Adams III

After a life altering accident, I placed my product liability/personal injury case in the hands of Gilbert Adams III. Mr. Adams is a sharp, resourceful attorney with an eagleâ€™s eye for injustice. He pursued my case with relentless dedication. He was professional, straight forward and tough, everything a person wants and expects from their attorney. His unwavering commitment to not only my case, but my familyâ€™s well being provided a calm assurance that was invaluable during the lengthy proceedings. Mr. Adams has the reputation of a formidable opponent. If youâ€™re looking for an attorney that gets real results I highly recommend Gilbert Adams III.

I do not think there is a more dedicated advocate then Gilbert T. Adams Jr, and Gilbert T. Adams III. If I ever need their services for any type of personal injury, then they would be my firm. They have a rich history in the Beaumont area that commands respect from their peers.
