"An absolutely Incredible lawyer"
​I sought Mr. Adams help in September of 2012. I decided on Mr. Adams mainly because of his prior military status. I knew that any and all decisions regarding my case would be well thought out before acted upon and that he would keep me informed on any pertinent information. Any question that were posed to Mr. Adams were answered accurately, clearly and promptly as possible. If any meeting was scheduled, Mr. Adams was always on time and got straight to the point. I had and still have nothing but, utmost confidence in Mr. Adams ability to perform his job without flaw. I wholeheartedly would recommend Mr. Adams to any individual. It was the best decision that I could have possibly made. I am forever grateful for all that Mr. Adams did for me. I hope that my words will encourage others to also chose Mr. Adams.
