This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent Estate Planning Attorney

From his detailed consultation to the finished product, Adam examined every detail and gave clear explanations. He is always available via telephone or email, and also has an office in Salem. His cost was about half our first experience with a trust document, and far more detailed.

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent Probate Lawyer

I live in Michigan and had to hire a lawyer in Oregon to handle my brother-in-law's estate with no will. Adam agreed to take the case and handle everything via mail, phone and e-mail. He explained the process thoroughly, and gave us detailed instructions every step of the way. He was always prompt i...n answering any questions, and very efficient with his time. The fee for his services was well within the estimate he gave us when we first consulted with him, and all correspondence from him was well laid out and easy to understand. He was very knowledgeable in estate and probate law and I would recommend him to anyone looking for these services.

Very easy to work with!

Adam is very skilled in his area. He helped us understand why it is a good idea to have a will and be prepared for the future. He answered our questions very well and made sure he knew our personal situation and future plans before helping us make any plans or decisions.

Great attorney to work with.

Mr. Famulary was very nice to work with. We have visited other attorneys in the past, and we always felt like they were in a rush to get to the next client. Mr. Famulary never rushed us and always took the time to answer our questions. Some of the legal language was difficult to understand, and he... was really helpful in explaining what everything meant in plain English. We were also very impressed with the turn-around time of our Wills. He sent us documents for review within one week of visiting his office.

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.
