This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Outstanding lawyer. Honest and focused

We hired Adam to assist in representing our loved one in a capital offense issue. He was honest with us, never overbilled, kept us informed, and just kept us in the loop about case developments . Adam was able to secure an outcome for our loved one beyond our expectations given the nature of the ch...arge. We could not have been more satisfied with his work. I would , without reservation, recommend Adam to anyone who needs legal help. He is energetic, communicates well and is honest.

Excellent attorney!

I needed Adam to prepare some legal documents for someone in the hospital, time was of the essence. Once I contacted him, he had everything ready the next day and was willing to meet us at the hospital to make sure everything was signed and notarized. He worked fast and was willing to accommodate... our schedule, he definitely exceeded our expectations and made a difficult situation much easier.

Great Dependable Attorney!

In 2013, we contracted with Mr. Adam LaHood to resolve complex estate issues that required the preparation and recording of numerous legal documents, including General Warranty Deeds, Affidavits of Fact, Affidavits of Heirship, and Resolutions of Estate Liens. Adam LaHood also successfully repr...esented our family in a complicated real estate transaction that was successfully and timely settled. We were extremely impressed with Mr. LaHood's knowledge, professionalism and persistence. In 2014, we also contracted with Mr. LaHood to prepare our Personal Wills and Medical and Durable Power of Attorney documents. I would strongly recommend Adam LaHood to anyone needing a dependable attorney. We would not hesitate to contract with him in the future for any further legal needs that may arise.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
