Firm Overview of Gilbert Adams Law Offices

How We Operate

Initial Consultations are at no charge and our compensation is a percentage of the recovered amount. We provide each client with the highest level of dignity and professional courtesy regardless of their economic status. In doing so, we are not paid until we have satisfactorily recovered for them.

Legal Library

Supplementing our electronic database, our law library is a comprehensive collection of text encompassing all areas of personal injury and wrongful death law. Compilations of medical, legislative, engineering, safety and psychological publications help to assure that our cases have solid foundations. The breadth of our law library affords us the luxury of having scholarly resources quickly available.

Paralegals Assisting Attorneys

While your case will be assigned and handled by Attorneys, a paralegal will also be assigned to your case. Our dedicated team of legal professionals includes individuals who collectively have more than 50 years experience in the legal field. All individuals are specially trained to assist attorneys to have the most reliable and up-to-date information to win cases.

Local Counsel

Because of our reputation we periodically are requested and occasionally agree on a case by case basis to “assist” as local counsel for out of state and out of area law firms and their clients.

 

Firm History

We are a third generation professional association of trial lawyers whose concerns and reputations are distinguished by excellence and compassion. We recognize that our clients usually come to us after they have been intentionally or negligently wronged.

Sometimes the wrong is an unethical or fraudulent commercial activity by which an individual or corporation has taken unfair advantage of our client. Typically, the wrong is a serious or catastrophic personal injury or death with enormous personal and financial loss. We provide experience with an unwavering sense of right and wrong fortified with superior legal experience enabling us to bring justice against any company. The Gilbert Adams Law Firm stands committed to just resolutions so that our clients receive the maximum result to which they are legally entitled.

Our attorneys are sought-after speakers, authors, and teachers of trial advocacy and bar leaders. First and foremost, however, to each attorney’s professional life is the honorable and successful representation of those who have entrusted their rights to our care.
