My lawyer was Kira Damusis, she was very prepared for litigation and defending me in my parenting time and custody matter. You need someone skilled to be able to navigate the Wayne County system. Men always have an uphill battle and this lawyer evened up the playing field by doing what is obviously her true passion. If you're a dad and you need help, she is the one you want in that courtroom or on zoom fighting for your rights. Now, can it be expensive? Of course, but you pay for what you get to be honest. You can't hire the best for peanuts, so save up, and do what needs to be done to win. She was definitely the lioness I needed to maintain my sanity, dignity, respect and.most importantly parental rights!
I am in the beginning stages of my divorce but the peace of mind ADAM has provided me so far has been priceless.
Steven has many years of experience and has answered all of my questions so far. It is really nice to have someone knowledgable going to bat for me.
My original attorney left the firm a month in, and Lori never missed a beat. She worked tirelessly to ensure I understood everything about the process and what things we may encounter. She never treated me like a client, she treated me like I was part of her family. She fought hard for me and always had my best interests in mind. I know of a lot of other men that didn't have the same positive experience I did with their divorce, and I have Lori to thank. She is outstanding, and I would recommend her to anyone!
After 23 years of marriage I was surprised to be presented with notification of divorce. Tracey represented me through the entire process. She was thorough, outlining everything I needed to know. She was fair and did not present me with unnecessary activities or charges. She treated me professionally and helped me get through one of the most difficult periods of my life with dignity. I'm grateful for the treatment I received and would strongly recommend Tracey in the field she represents. Thank you.
I just wanted to send a quick thank you note for all your help through the most difficult time in my life. You were not only a tremendous help with all the legal "mumbo-jumbo," but you acted with compassion, were strong for me when I needed someone strong and always had my best interests in mind. Most of all, thank you for helping me ensure I would get some type of custody of my children.
I KNEW you were the right lawyer for me.
Thank you so much for everything you've done to this point. I know its not 100% yet, but I am excited to begin the healing process and move on with my life.
“The lawyers at ADAM are the best in the business. They are the gold standard in obtaining the best results for their clients. I have been practicing for 26 years and have noticed that they are the smartest in the courtroom and hardest working throughout the case. They always seem to be one step ahead of the other side. Plus, the care and attention they seem to give to their clients who are actually going through this is special. They are constantly keeping them informed and updated and consulted on different strategies so there is always complete understanding of what's going on in their case. I would highly recommend ADAM to anyone.”
“Right from the initial consult, I knew I was in good hands. And once I filed for divorce, that continued. Elizabeth Nacy was very knowledgeable on everything that I inquired about during the divorce. She also shared her excellent advice with me on a number of topics. I wouldn't hesitate one bit to recommend ADAM to others.”
“My personal and truthful experience with ADAM. No secret what I went here for, unfortunately. But the main reason I and maybe of you looked into ADAM was, I wanted the best as I knew things could go "bad" for me, I didn't want that. Were they a bargain price for their fee's? not sure how I could price out something like this BUT they did earn the fee's charged and what I found out in life you get what you pay for. I did however leave the free intial consult much more educated and more importantly much "better" than when I walked in there and this was after I paid to retain them, which people, no matter what,t nothing cheap about these situations when alot at stake. Honestly, that LONG ride home was lonely and depressing BUT at least I knew I was going to be backed with people who very much knew what was going on thankfully they was in my corner! There was no sugar coating certain things that the courts will favor regardless of what attorney you have and they didn't BUT I do confidently know this as well, they sure did make sure I wasn't going to get taken advantage of and suggested certain motions that I had no clue about to make sure I wasn't gonna to get rail-roaded any more than I had been. I'm the "head of the of house household who was pays majority of all" so even though not together and another guy in her life (eventually) im supposed to just continue to support that? Nope! They never pressured me into anything. Conclusion guys: how much is your piece of mind worth? For me, at the time, I knew it could go really, really south in that courtroom cause I've been with this woman for 14years and I know what she is capable of. Let me finish by saying this, consider it your 1st new investment into your new future. I tried to live by the "it's cheaper to keep her" motto and the fee they charge merely was pocket change compared to living by that motto. If your reading this at least your acknowledging the fact of who and what your dealing with because as you will find out if you go through with divorce and especially if kids are involved, let's just say, men, next time get a dam prenup cause she will already be up several points on the score board the minute you walk into the court room.
*Thankfully and God Blessed cause the day ADAM called to get her description so she can get served, she just got done telling me how she was gonna change her ways so they called it off. How do you think I feel as the retainer and all, went towards papers, phone calls and emails? A waste? 2 years later, she is a C+ and I can live with that. Maybe she found out that she was still gonna be ordered to be her half of bills from the motion ADAM filed or maybe she mentioned to her friends I had ADAM backing me and they knew what they were up against based off the name? I don't know, but was it a waste? All I can say is I slept much better starting the day of retaining ADAM and the 1st consult, so F no it wasn't a waste to me. I deserve to sleep good on the iComfort gel mattress that she said she was taking and I'm sure would've got it! Good luck guys, if you give up or don't hang in there then what's the point of this? If you can't swing it that's 1 thing but if your gonna let the price of breaking free and finding happiness again, which will happen stop you, then buy her love for another month(I know a hole comment but very true).. Broke temporarily and piece of mind compared to buying your piece of mind on a daily basis which you still will broke(probably broke down even).... just pay it and learn from your mistakes. God Bless all you men going through the struggle, it's NOT going to be a fair fight no matter what you think, the odds arent in our favor so I would definitely recommend ADAM.”
“When I first met with the lawyer from ADAM, I was nervous. This was my first time going thru something like this. The lawyer I talked to patiently listened to my story as to what happened in my marriage and why I wanted a divorce. When I was done he thoroughly explained what I should expect from a divorce. What, by law, I would get. What she would get. Getting divorced is a horrible process, but having a great law team on your side makes the transition mucheasier”
“The best decision I've made in a long time was hiring ADAM to handle my divorce case and, even more so, specifically choosing Frank Briguglio to represent me. Frank is a highly skilled and knowledgeable craftsman who guided me perfectly through the toughest time in my life. Frank kept me grounded, focused and encouraged that I would make out on the other end of the divorce process with the fairest outcome possible. Every step of the way he had the best advice and the right answers. He is every bit of a well practiced professional at the top of his game. For just one example, when we met with my ex-wife and her attorney to attempt to reach a settlement, Frank was not only able to quote settled case law to my advantage regarding spousal support but he also had the legal book in hand and marked ready to prove his point. Frank even told her attorney to keep the book - proving our side of the table was far more prepared for negotiation. Having Frank's vast experience on my side clearly gave me the legal upper hand in my case. Aside from his legal expertise, Frank was able correctly ascertain my ex-wife's narcissistic and greedy personality.
Frank being on the board of the of Macomb County Bar Association also played to my advantage as not only is he extensively versed in divorce proceedings but it was obvious he is well respected by those who work in the Macomb County court system - particularly by my case mediator Debra O'Brien. Even the person I met with at Friend of the Court knew Frank - again providing me confidence that I had knowledgeable and experience representation.
I also appreciated the videos, articles and emails I received from ADAM throughout this process. These help me realize that was I not the only one going though a battle and even more so that I was not alone in the fight. Communication from Frank's assistant were always timely, complete and concise.
On top off all this, I also found Frank to be a genuinely nice guy who cared about me, not just as a client, but as a person going through the challenges of a late in life divorce.”
"I was going through a messy divorce. Half way through I realized my lawyer didn't have my best interest at heart. I came met with Brent Bowyer. He not only met with me. He met with my parents and helped ease their concerns. They got me a fair deal and most important more time with my daughter. They are an amazing team of attorneys that care. I recommend them to any man out there that's going through a divorce."
