Wonderful Lawyer

I have been using Anne for the last 7 years now with different legal issues and would not go anywhere else. She not only helps with legal issues she is also compasionate to what I am going through and helps me see the light at the end of the tunnel. I would recommend Anne and I have to my co-work...ers.

Child Custody Legal Help

I was in desperate need of an attorney and didn’t have a personal referral. So I had to research online for a good attorney. It isn’t easy finding and filtering through online, especially when there are so many attorneys to choose from. I came across Anne C Adams profile on AVVO and read her revie...ws and bio on her website. I liked what I read and felt comfortable in contacting her. I then sent Anne C Adams an email asking to meet with her. Anne promptly replied to my message and kindly asked me to contact her Canoga Park office to speak with her staff to set up an appointment. I was able to set up an appointment for a free-consultation to meet with Anne the next day at her West Los Angeles office. As soon as I met with Anne C Adams and had explained my situation, she assured me everything will be alright. I want to let everyone know that Anne is very professional, direct and has many years of experiences with my case type. I hired Anne C Adams as a consulting attorney. She helped prepare my documents and coached me in mediation and court appearances. Because my case was time sensitive, she was able to put in a rush order on my legal documents. Her attorney fees can vary depending on what service you need, but she will work with you financially. They accept credit cards, cash or personal checks. I would definitely recommend Anne C Adams as an attorney for your case. Please contact her to set up an appointment to meet first to discuss your case and to see if she can be of assistance. Please remember there are two office locations; Canoga Park (main office) and West Los Angeles. I will continue to refer Anne Claire Adams to my friends and family for future services. Thank you Anne!!!

Great legal representation for a debt settlement case!

I had entered a period of financial hardship and couldn't keep up with payments on all my debts. One company sued me and I tried to settle the debt myself and could negotiate only a 20% discount. I was referred to Anne Adams and she was very professional in handling my case. She told me how every ...step of the process would likely work so I would not be surprised along the way. She gave me a briefing on how cases like mine were typically handled. The outcome of the settlement she negotiated was far higher than I was expecting at around 60% which is not common with the credit card company we were dealing with. I was so pleased. She also made sure the payment schedule was in my favor along with other terms, like no balloon payment in the end. Her offices and her assistants were also very pleasant and professional. I am referring Anne to all my friends and family for legal help and would return to her in the future as well.

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.
