Clear, thoughtful and kind -- and successful!

Adam and his colleague were our attorneys for our successful settlement with a hospital that neglected to provide my husband appropriate care, leading to serious, life shortening repercussions. He was always clear with his thoughts and suggestions, answered all questions without making us feel l...ike dopes, and genuinely cared for our family and the outcome of our case. He didn't promise the moon, but shared his expertise based on years of practice and the results showed, We received the amount of settlement we'd hoped for, allowing us to prepare for whatever changes we'd need to make as our husband's declining health requires. We interviewed three different, and likely excellent, attorneys/firms that specialized in our kind of case, but we're very glad we chose to hire Adam Berger.

A highly effective, and very kind, lawyer

Adam represented our family and negotiated a very favorable settlement for my father's wrongful death. Adam co-counseled our case with Liz McLafferty, for whom I have also written a review. Liz and Adam were an outstanding team. They worked together very well, and you can tell they have a lot of resp...ect for each other. Adam is a very experienced, skilled attorney, and it shows. He has incredible recall of the specific facts of the case he is working on, and wowed us more than once with that ability. Adam was an excellent advocate, and got us an excellent result. If my father were alive, he would have been so pleased, and proud, of the work Adam did on our behalf. You will not be disappointed if you hire him as your attorney.

I was referred to Adam by another firm who was not willing to travel to Spokane. Adam, after learning about my situation with my employer, took on my case. My employer stated they would have fought the lawsuit if I had not retained Adam with Schroter Goldmark Bender. My employer settled the class act...ion at nearly 100% of the damages stated in my complaint. Thanks again Adam. Job well done!

Great attention to detail, compassion and dedication

I just received the notice of settlement letter in our favor in the Pellino v. Brink's Incorporated class action lawsuit and I would like to express my deep appreciation for Adam Berger. His attention to detail, compassion and dedication to providing the best possible representation for the plaintiff...s in this case was outstanding and deserves to be recognized. I would not hesitate to recommend his services to anyone. Many thanks and many blessings! Warmest Regards, -Michael [removed by Avvo Staff] [removed by Avvo Staff]

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
