#1 Choice for personal injury attorney

Everyone at the Law Office of Adam Sorrells are exceptional at what they do!  Adam was beyond efficient at addressing not only all of my concerns, but also covering everything I didn't even think of. His assistants were also very kind & courteous. They always made me feel comfortable and listened to.... They stayed in contact with me throughout the whole process, and were happy to help if I had any questions along the way. Overall,  the positive outcome of my case far exceeded my expectations, and I confidently recommend the Law Office of Adam Sorrells to anyone needing assistance with a personal injury case.

Adam is the best

I was in a biking accident and suffered severe injuries as a result (broken bones and multiple surgeries). I met with several attorneys locally in my search for the best one. I chose to work with Adam Sorrells, and he is the very best indeed. He is experienced, well-connected, diligent, empathetic... and tough. (I wouldn’t want to argue against him at trial!) My case was not as easy one…lots of twists and turns along the way and lawsuit filed, but the outcome was excellent. The final settlement figure was enough to change my life and afford me financial security. One final thing that you should know about Adam is that he is an excellent communicator. He is honest, direct and knowledgeable and made just the right amount of contact with me throughout this ordeal.

Settled a tough case with a good outcome

First, I'd like to compliment Adam's staff. I was taken care of and no detail missed or question was ever unanswered, they are very helpful and professional. Right from the start Adam paid very close attention to the details and medical complaints I told him about. This was an uphill battle. To add ...to the misery of my situation the at-fault party was under-insured. Adam filed a claim with my auto insurance carrier, as well. Overall, the at-fault insurance carrier claim settled at policy limit 50k. The claim with my auto insurance carrier under-insured settled same, at policy limit 50k. I don't doubt that his expertise, and previous trial experience is the reason the outcome was so favorable. I have every confidence in his representation, and if anyone I know asks me I would definitely suggest his firm.

Adam Took The Time

To call me regarding an accident that I was involved in. He took time out of his day to do that and I'm very grateful for it. He was nice, to the point and very knowledgeable.

So thankful for Adam

I was in a bad head on collision in July and called Adam the following morning. He immediately arranged an appointment where we sat down and went over all the details. Adam guided me step by step, offering his assistance with paperwork and just made my life so much easier. (during one of the most d...ifficult times in my life) He was always reachable by phone and email and offered to go above and beyond to assist me during this difficult time. Adam was able to settle my case within 6 months for the full value. I would HIGHLY recommend him if you're in need of a great personal injury lawyer.
