"I had the privilege of co-counseling two cases with Adam and found him to be an outstanding attorney. He was always professional and prepared, and zealously advocated for our clients to ensure the best possible results in their cases. Any client would be lucky to be represented by Adam."
"Adam and I have worked together on several cases involving industrial injuries that were caused by third party negligence. Our mutual clients have all reported to me that Adam takes the time to explain the litigation process to them in detail, and that they're impressed by his preparation and effort in seeking the best results in their cases. I highly endorse Adam. He's smart, skilled, dedicated to his clients, and respected by his peers."
"Over the years, I have consulted Mr. Carlson on several legal issues. His advice and recommendations demonstrated a deep and thorough understanding of his practice area. He is highly skilled and a well respected member of the legal community."
