This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Honest and Accurate!

Adam was very compassionate and understanding of my situation and had unexpected real world knowledge of my field. Not only did Adam hear out my pleas for help, but helped diffuse some of my worries and helped me find a clear cut path that for now, did not require the use of his services. Hopefully i...t stays that way! I appreciate Adam's professionalism as well as his honesty and willingness to not simply take my money because he easily could have. Thanks Adam!

Superb Lawyer

If you are in need of legal representation or advice for your business, look no further. In my dealings with Adam I have come to be extremely impressed by his intellect, creativity, and attention to detail. He is second to none.

Amazing Attorney

Adam Weitzel has been our church attorney since 2008. We know how difficult it is to find a good, reputable attorney that is honest, fair, and just in all of their dealings. The courts seem to hold favor with Mr. Weitzel because of his honesty and high integrity.The Golden Rule of "Do unto others as... you would have them do unto you" is how he conducts his life and practice. We give our attorney Five Stars.

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.
