This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Competent, experienced, friendly and fair!

I found Adam Greely through Avvo and was pleasantly surprised how quickly I was able to meet with him for a free consultation. Since I was impressed with his knowledge of Bankruptcy law, I hired him right away. I was forced into a situation where I needed to hire a Bankruptcy attorney because I was ...trying to collect on an arbitration award and the other side was threatening Chapter 11 (through another Bankruptcy firm) if I didn't negotiate the terms of payment with them. Mr. Greeley laid out my options in layman's terms for me and was available to handle my case in a very timely manner. I believe he helped me resolve this quicker and more efficiently than if I would have tried to have my existing attorney negotiate with the other side instead. This potentially saved me a lot of time, aggravation and money as a result. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anybody that seeks a professional that is well-versed in bankruptcy law, who is also a great communicator as well!

Litigation lawyer | Mar 08

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Adam is one of my favorites even though we were on opposite sides of a complex, multi-faceted, and hotly contested litigation involving a multi-million dollar property in Laguna Beach. His intelligence and aggressiveness made him a formidable and effective adversary; at the same time, he earned my trust and respect through demonstrated integrity and a creative approach to seemingly intractable problems. He certainly earned his fees, and I would refer potential clients to him without hesitation."

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.
