A Down-to-Earth, Knoweldeable, Responsive, and Competent Attorney
I am an attorney myself, having been admitted to my jurisdiction since 2001. I have never practiced family law matters so I'm quite clueless about the intricacies of the subject matter. I was formerly a prosecutor and then took on other government legal work. My ex-girlfriend lives in the Bay Ar...

Exceptional Family Law Attorney
I recently contacted Adam for assistance with a divorce that has been moving along at a painfully slow pace. Adam provided me with an exceptional amount of advice, both general and specific, regarding my case. I will definitely use Adam as I move forward to what appears to be my solid case. I strongl...

Good family law attorney
I had to switch a lawyer in the middle of my case, and I picked Adam. My case started to move immediately in the right direction: OSC motion was filed. Easy, but I coudn't make my previous lawyer to do that for me. Adam has great knowledge about modern child support issues--stock options and such....
"Adam sincerely cares about his clients and works towards getting the best possible outcome in each case. He is truly an advocate for his clients both in and out of the courtroom. I've acted as co-counsel with him on several matters and have seen this dedication firsthand."
"I have known Adam for many years. I worked with him several years ago on several challenging cases. Adam is highly intelligent, hard-working and meticulous about the quality of his work. He communicates with clients on a regular basis and keeps them informed about the status of their cases. He is very knowledgeable about family law. I highly recommend Adam to any client with a family law matter."
"I have litigated against Adam and can attest that his knowledge and professionalism are second to none. He is down-to-earth and thoughtfully explores practical legal solutions for his clients."
"Adam is a strong advocate for his clients but still a pleasure to work with in a case: a delicate balance of the best of both worlds. He is a walking encyclopedia of the law. I know he makes every effort to efficiently represent clients by minimizing unnecessary litigation and having clients handle whatever parts of the case can be done without a lawyer."
"Adam does what he can to get the best outcome for his client. He will make sincere efforts at informal resolution to try to reduce conflict and costs for clients. When he is in the courtroom, he advocates well for the client and has a good grasp of the law. It is welcome to have an attorney like this on the other side that doesn't focus on irrelevant things and red herrings to unnecessarily increase the level of conflict that already exists between two divorcing spouses both represented by counsel."
"Adam Gurley is knowledgeable about the law, a strong advocate for his client and he keeps his client's best interests in mind. I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Gurley is an experienced and competent Attorney. He knows how to navigate our complicated legal system efficiently and effectively."
"I endorse this lawyer. He is extremely professional and respectful. Knows the area of law and is fair."
"Mr. Gurley was a pleasure to work with. He is sharp, quick and keeps his client's best interests in mind. I endorse this lawyer."
"Adam is a knowledgeable family law attorney that looks to find a resolution to matters rather than escalate them. I have worked with Adam several times and have always found him to be knowledgeable and reasonable. I enjoy working with him as we usually get matters settled in a reasonable, cost effective manner."
"I endorse this lawyer. Adam is knowledgeable and fights hard for his clients. He is honest and trustworthy which is not always the case with other attorneys."
"I endorse this lawyer. Adam is efficient and works diligently to accomplish his client's goals under his sound advisement."
"I endorse this lawyer. He is fair and reasonable with clients and opposing parties and his method and practice is effective and quality work."
"I endorse Adam Gurley as a very capable family law attorney. I hired Adam to help with my own family law matters and found him to be an expert in the law and a trustworthy advisor. I handled many aspects of my case on my own but relied on Adam to provide guidance in the complex areas of child custody and support, spousal support and family law procedure. Adam approaches his cases with a professional and no-nonsense attitude, and he treated me fairly and with respect during a difficult time. I recommend Adam to anyone looking for an experienced family law attorney."
"Adam joined a case I had been involved in on the day of trial. He exhibited an understanding of the complex cultural issues in our case. We were able to work in an amicable manner to arrive a solution that both parties could accept. I look forward to working with him again in the future."
"I met Adam through a friend who is going through a very difficult divorce. My friend had the unfortunate experience of being represented by counsel who did not understand the intricacies of family law. As soon as Adam was retained to handle my friend’s case, he took control of the matter and immediately gave him a sense of comfort. Adam is very knowledgeable about the law and the local northern California courts. He clearly takes time to keep his clients informed on where the case is headed and gives a realistic evaluation of the likely outcome. Most importantly, Adam was very sympathetic and understanding towards my friend’s situation, and has proven to be very reliable."
"I hired Adam to advise me and represent me on post-divorce matters. He has a thorough knowledge of the law. He is very practical and does not undertake work that will not be cost-effective. He has good instincts about how judges work and understands the cynical games that people play in family law. Adam went out of his way to not charge me, often telling me how I could save money by filing papers myself. His rates are reasonable and he does not nickel-and-dime you on the hours. Most importantly, he obtained good results without over-lawyering the case. I thhink that the level of representation I got was very high at a very fair price."
