Got me a good deal in my DUI case for me :D
First off, let me say how blessed and lucky I am to have found Attorney Jared Adams through Avvo! As several others have reiterated in their own reviews, Mr. Adams is very knowledgable within the Colorado DUI arena. This was unfortunately my second DUI and I was looking at some pretty rough penalties for my mistake. Fortunately, though, Mr. Adams knew pretty much what to do from the get-go. He was able to ask questions in my case that I would have never thought about, and thusly was able to get IMO, a good offer from the Arapahoe County DAs office instead of having to take it to trial. In all seriousness I am beyond pleased with my representation that Jared Adams has provided me in my case. I believe that he worked very hard on my case and the end result completely shows what a stellar lawyer he really is. Also, having two kids --- money was a factor for me in my decision to hire a lawyer. I felt like Mr. Adams's fees were extremely reasonable compared to some of the other lawyers I had met with before deciding to hire him. I am happy to provide some insight and hopefully save whoever is reading this some time. -Thanx Shannon ;)

Don't Hesitate to Call Jared for any DUI matter
Jared Adams is hands down one of the most professional and earnest attorneys I have had the pleasure of dealing with. He was very upfront with me regarding some issues in my case, which I appreciated. I met with some other attorneys before deciding to hire Jared, and am happy that I trusted my gut on this one. For me personally, hiring an attorney was probably the biggest decision I have had to face in my life as of now, and I couldn't be happier with my decision to hire Jared. Jared Adams had very good about keeping me informed regarding what was going on in my case. He seemed pretty busy with trials and court hearings, but always seemed to take the time out to email or text me what I needed to know. He prepared me for when I needed to talk with the district attorneys, and did a fantastic job fighting for me and my rights. In the end, I am happy with the results of my case. Jared laid out a very straightforward road map of how my case was going to go. Looking back, pretty much everything that he said was going to happen, did happen in almost the same timeline. He even nailed it with the offers that we were probably going to receive. I think that Jared is a very knowledgable lawyer who truly understands the DUI laws in Colorado, and would recommend him for any DUI or DWAI issue. Additionally, he is one of the few lawyers that I met with, who I thought had excellent communication skills, which was very important to me. I wanted a lawyer who I could talk to and not feel like I was just another client or number to them. If you have found yourself facing a DUI, I totally recommend him for your needs! If you read this, thank you again Jared for your hard work in my case. I appreciate it.

Best lawyer in my experience
Jared Adams is a really tough attorney. I believe that he worked really hard on my DUI case and the end result really paid off for me. There really wasn't any worthwhile plea deals in my case so we decided that we would take it to a trial. Jared was very fierce in the courtroom and represented me and my case fairly and with the utmost of respect. Jared fought for my side of the story and was ultimately able to convince the jury for a not guilty verdict for DUI or DWAI. Hands down do I recommend Jared Adams and his services! Thank you

Jared Adams is Tough, Aggressive, and Compassionate!
About nine months ago if you would have asked me about my outlook on the future I would have been very uncertain. Since I have hired Jared Adams, I am very thankful and appreciative at his faith and understanding in my case. Jared was able to fight for me and my rights against the DUI ticket and possible jail time due to a high blood alcohol content, and for that, I am extremely appreciative. Because the officer that arrested me was fired and subsequently moved out of the state, Jared was able to get me a phenominal plea deal that granted me the security and ability to keep my job and career afloat. Luckily, Jared knows the DUI laws extremely well and was able to get me this deal. I can attest to his expertise and will gladfully endorse Jared Adams.

~ Fantastic law firm with an amazing lawyer ~
I am personally amazed at the level of professionalism and expertise that Mr. Adams has brought to the table throughout my representation. I was looking at some serious jail time for an assault and battery case against me. I am impressed with how Mr. Adams prepped me for the trial and most of all - how he advised me against the plea deal that was offered (as opposed to many other lawyers that I met with that had told me to take it). Mr. Adams knew that this wasn't the best option for me and fought for me and my freedom, and I am very greatful for his representation and am happy to leave this review in regards to my experience.

saved my licence
I am so thankful to come across Jareds services for DUI defense work. I am a college student in Boulder but live with my family in Littleton, so transportation is really important for me to get to school. I had some drinks on the hill and thought I was good to drive home and ended up getting a DUI at a checkpont. Because the machine hadn't been calibrated properly and my road side testing wasn't performed standard, Jared was able to get my case dismissed from the DA. He was also able to win my DMV hearing for me which means that I can still drive to school. Jared is very hardworking and did alot for me in my case.

So Thankful!
Jared is an all around great guy and just as equally great attorney. I have, unfortunately, hired him for a couple different things, and every single time he works just as hard for me. I have witnessed firsthand his abilities in the courtroom and in the DMV, and can attest that he is worth every cent! Even though I lost my license with my first DUI, he was able to get me reinstated sooner than I initially thought that I would, so that I was able to drive to my work and kids school. He is awesome and is really helped me through this

Tough and Won't Back Down
Jared is fricken' awesome! He worked very hard to represent me with my DUI and did such a good job. He knew how to play the game with the DAs in Denver court and was able to get me a plea deal the day that we were going to take my case to trial. He did not mess around and it really paid off and came through for me. He is very knowledgable and is easy to get ahold of for any of my issues. During this same time, my wife got a a ticket from an accident and Jared was also able to handle that for us too.

Knows exactly how to handle your case!!!
I found Jared through this website and chose him based on these reviews. I was charged with DUI after driving home from dancing and pulling into a DUI checkpoint. Jared knew exactly how to handle my case from the very beginning, going at the validity and the legality of that specific checkpoint. With a low BAC we were prepared to take the case to trial but Jared kept after the small details up to the time for opening statements and was able to get the charges dropped to Wreckless Driving and my criminal slate clean. I would highly recommend Jared Adams to anyone. He will find exactly how to win your case and he is tough and confident in a court room!

Expert Lawyer
I recently found Mr. Adams and had him fight a traffic case for me. I was in jepordy of loosing my CDL and I needed adequate representation. Mr. Adams helped get my case dismissed and I can keep my license and my job.

Great Representation!
As my title suggests and from my recent experience with Mr. Adams, I think that he is one of the better attorney's serving the Denver metro area. He was extremely responsive and very helpful in representing my side of the story in a recent case of mine. He was able to get me a deferred sentence. Thank you!

i would recommend Jared Adams for any DUI Defense
Jared really helped me in a recent case of mine! I emailed him the next morning after a DUI and Jared called me within 30 minutes of my email. He was very upfront and honest about the facts that i had explained to him and was very reliable and trustworthy throughout the entirety of my case.
Posted by Penny | March 27, 2014
A+++++ Thank You!
If I could, I would give Jared 6 Stars! I made an error in the better part of my judgement and decided to drive home from a company party one evening. I was pulled over for an improper lane change and eventually arrested and charged for driving under the influence and resisting arrest --- due in part that it was below freezing temperature and I was in heels and didn't think it was appropriate to perform some of the testing along Broadway with cars zooming by. From the moment I called Jared Adams to walking out of the elevators on the top floor of Dominion Towers where his office is located, I had a good feeling about Jared. He was very professional and presented himself very well --- a trait that I find very important in working with other professionals. The one thing I will say that I appreciated the most was that he was very upfront about how these types of cases usually go and promised to do the best he could in representing me in my case. He didn't try to make me empty promises and allowed me to understand the consequences of my actions and set out a very straightforward map of how we were going to address the issues headon. Due to a technicality of the officer that pulled me over not showing up, we were able to win the DMV Hearing by default, and I was able to keep my well needed driver's license (especially needed for taking my kids to all of their after school activities - soccer, gymnastics, swimming etc.). I will say that I was very nervous going into this meeting because I had a lot to lose, but am very jovial at the end result. In addition, Jared was able to work out a plea deal with the district attorney so that I didn't have any jail time and that if I stayed out of trouble for the next year then my charges would be dismissed --- essentially giving me the second chance that I needed. As a former client, I am more than happy with my representation and if I had the chance to do it all over again. Well #1 I would have called a taxi and not been in this situation to begin with. But #2, I would ensure that I hired Jared Adams again and again!

Fantastic Representation!
I most definitely would recommend this lawyer! Jared Adams helped me in a recent snafu. I had been charged with a DUI when I wasn't driving and the circumstances behind my arrest were not very black and white as when someone gets pulled over driving down the side of the road. I called around and met with a few other attorneys befofre stumbling across a review for Jared Adams and decided I would try and get in to see him. He was thankfully able to get me into his schedule pretty fast within my initial call and seemed very confident behind the facts in my case. Because there really wasn't any standing offers from the district attorney, we both mutually decided on taking the case to a jury trial where Jared was able to convey to the jury my innocense. In the end of the trial, the jury ruled in our favor and I was able to have all of the charges dismissed off of my record.

Gold Star
I was arrested and been charged for domestic violense and an assault charge. Thankfully, I was able to find Jared Adams with the Adams Law Firm to help me with charges and with my case. I had a lot to lose in my case as I have been dealing with a lengthy child custody and a messy divorce. Jared helped me with every court hearing and provided me with enough information so that i was educated about what was happening in my case. My final result, he was able to work out a deferred charge and have me take a educational class for me to take, in exchange for the charges being dropped. Because of this, I am able to move on with my life and still be able to see my daughter. I thank Jared so much for every thing he has done for me.

Great Attorney
Jared Adams worked his magic in handling my case. I was initially being charged with DUI and Careless Driving. Jared was very honest, trustworthy, and super knowledgable and knew how to handle my case. He was able to negotiate a deal that dismissed the Careless Driving and the DUI charge in place of a Reckless Driving charge. Because of this, I was able to keep my CDL and my job. I am so happy with Jared's services and I would fully recommend him to all of my family and my friends!

Jared Saved My DRIVER'S LICENSE!~
Mr. Adams is not only extremely knowledgeable about this area of the law, but he is one of the most professional and experienced attorneys in Colorado. I was arrested for DUI back in August, and Mr. Adams has already been able to secure my driver's license back by winning the driver's license hearing, as well as helping me fight my case by not backing down to the demands of the district attorney in Denver County!!! Don't wait to give Jared Adams a call for any criminal defense issues! He is sure to give you the same level of professionalism that I have received, as well as help you in any way possible! He even met with me on a Sunday afternoon to prep me for the driver's license (DMV?) hearing - and I don't know what attorney would ever do this outside of "office hours"! Thank you for getting me to keep my license! I was lucky to have found Jared at the Adams Law Firm!

the best lawyer I've ever dealt with! Thanks!
Mr. Adams is hands down the best attorney I have dealt with so far! I called and met with several other DUI attorneys before meeting with Mr. Adams, and am glad to report that he was the best option for my case. His experience and quality, along with his reasonable fees, made hiring him the easiest choice of this process. He was extremely knowledgable and advocated for my rights every step of the way! He was even able to win the DMV Hearing so that I could keep my driver's license! Thank you SO MUCH! If you are looking for an experienced attorney who isn't afraid to "go-to bat for you", Mr. Adams is your guy.

Best Attorney to work with!
Jared quickly responded to my case and made sure that I got the best legal representation. The way he worked on my case has been fantastic! Understanding, empathetic, smart, and hard working€“ are some of the words that describe him aptly. I called a couple different lawyers in town about my recent DUI and Jared handled the situation way better than the rest, making hiring him an easy choice! He was extremely knowledgable and handled everything in my case with the utmost of professionalism from the driver's license hearing to the way he handled the prosecutors to secure me a really good deferred judgement deal, instead of taking it to trial. Thank you very much!
