I have consulted with Adam on many occasions and have been very impressed. He truly cares about each client. He is very knowledgeable on the law, and works hard to get the most for this clients. With Adam, you're not going to be passed off to some junior attorney. All of his past clients have said they would recommend him, which is the highest endorsement one can get.

Mr. Smestad was recommended to me by a friend and I am extremely happy that I took her advice. He were able to lay out my civil litigation case in a way I could actually understand, which really made me comfortable & feel like I was in good hands. He was always very responsive to any questions I had and was quick to return any phone calls I left. I knew what was going on every step of the way. I felt he was very knowledgeable and professional, yet relatable. He was able to secure an outcome for my case that I was more than happy with. A+ job. I'd definitely recommend him.

Adam is very passionate about what he does and is always fighting to obtain the best results for his clients. As a personal injury attorney he has many clients, but he always made sure that I knew my case was important and that he is working for me. He always made sure that I was informed of what was going on in my case and what all my options were. He did a great job of explaining the law in terms that I could understand and provided me with the information I needed to make the best decisions regarding my case. I am very grateful for the services he provided and am very happy with the settlement he was able to negotiate on my behalf. Adam made a stressful situation as easy as possible.
