A Fine Lawyer

Mark Adams is a fantastic attorney. He represented me during my divorce. I was well supported and satisfied with the outcome. Mark is a very reasonable person and knows the court system well. He is honest and acts with integrity. I trust him. I hope to never have to use him again, but if I did have a... legal situation, I would contact Mark in a heartbeat. He also has the most amazing paralegal working with him; she is second to none.

Tough on clients (well me) but Honest with what to expect

Mark was about the 4th or 5th lawyer I called about a year ago because I was having trouble finding a lawyer to trust. Each one gave me the feeling like they were trying to 'sell me a car' or 'fear-goating' me into hiring them. Mark didn't give me a warm and fuzzy feeling (he actually kinda made me... feel like a dumb child, haha), but he DID just told me what the certain realities of the situation is point blank from the mechanisms of the law with no sugar coating. - That was the type of lawyer I was going for. Anyway, I just got out of court today where my ex was coming up with all these egregious lies to try and put a restraining order on me to hamper my parenting time with my son. Mark was really tough on me of how I should be handling my ex in the eyes of the law when she threatens me with lies like this (i.e. not to engage with her), and showed me where I f*cked on the way (this is the part where I felt like a child being taught a lesson by a parent), and it's a lesson hardly earned! I now have the confidence to not respond to my ex when she tries to intimidate me, and I get to see my son tomorrow thanks to him!!!!

Family laws best kept secret!

Mark Adams does not have a fancy website. He does not have a giant yellow pages add. I have used his services for over 5 years now and I can tell you there is no better family attorney in northern Colorado. When Mark argues my points in court, Im always left feeling that I could not have said it ...better myself. If Mr. Adams told me the sky is falling I would be sure to duck, because he has been nothing but honest with me throughout all of my experience with him. Wile I watched my ex pay a fortune in legal fees only to lose on every occasion, I was paying almost half of what it cost her with twice the counsel. My biggest advise to attorney seekers, Hire Mark Adams, quickly before your ex reads this and does.
