Adam L Dean

If you’re searching for a criminal defense attorney who embodies both legal excellence and genuine compassion, Adam Dean is the one you want in your corner. He is far more than just a lawyer, he’s a relentless advocate, a brilliant strategist, and a deeply empathetic professional who treats his clien...ts with dignity and respect, no matter their circumstances. I’ve had the rare perspective of working with Adam through different chapters of my life. First, as a young and inexperienced individual facing serious legal consequences, and more than a decade later as someone ready to turn the page and pursue expungement. Through every step, Adam remained a steady, committed presence—unshaken in his dedication and unwavering in his belief that I deserved a second chance. When I first met Adam, I was in a difficult and uncertain place. I had made poor decisions and had little understanding of the legal process. Adam didn’t just represent me, he educated me, reassured me, and fiercely advocated for the best possible outcome. He was assertive and sharp when it mattered most, yet always approachable, patient, and kind. His professionalism is matched only by his humanity, and his ability to make clients feel heard and never judged is rare. What truly sets Adam apart is his personal investment in the people he represents. He doesn’t treat you like a case file, he treats you like a person with potential, with a future worth protecting and restoring. That personal commitment became even more evident when he helped me, years later, to successfully expunge my record. It wasn’t just a legal victory, it was a life-changing moment. His reputation is well-deserved, and his track record speaks for itself. If you need someone who will fight for you, guide you with integrity, and treat you with respect every step of the way, Adam Dean is the attorney you want by your side. I’ll always be grateful for the impact he’s had on my life. .

I’ve been represented by Adam for the past couple years and two words that come to mind is brilliance and professionalism. He won’t lead you on with false promises. He’s there for your best interest no matter how much trouble you got yourself in. Back in 2022 I had a drug case where Portland police s...eized $18,887 after charging me with multiple drug charges. After charges were dropped I went to Adam to help me get my money back which his claim for return of seized property was successful and the funds were returned. Now I’m in a federal indictment Adam was my first and only choice when my futures at stake. He responded and was In person the very next day ready to attack, not just defend. He’s had my best interest in and outside of jail. I never felt like just another tacked on case. Most importantly he was so kind and patient with my 80 year old grandma who called him religiously when she hadn’t heard from me in a couple days. He always assured her I was in good hands. Thank you for being in my corner. Couldn’t ask for better representation, all boxes checked.

Thank you Adam and Dawn( your paralegal) for helping me through this tough time and aiding a new beginning of my life. Due to COVID my case got pushed out for months. But you stuck with it and supported me the entire time . Adam your performance in the court room exceeded my expectations along with t...he excellent outcome . Thank you very much

Adam worked for the dismissal of my case for over a year and was extremely responsive every step of the way. My case was an embarrassing one for me and Adam was very professional and non judgmental. He understands that bad things happen to good people and he will fight for you even when the circumsta...nces are unusual. Adam's paralegal Dawn was an amazing help to me, she was highly sympathetic to my position and was able to catch a miscommunication that could have potentially prevented me from completing the requirements necessary for the dismissal. I'm happy to say they were successful in getting my case dismissed. I am thoroughly satisfied with the work these great people did for me and I will turn to them first in the future and highly recommend them to anyone needing legal representation.
