About

I was selected as a member of The National Trial Lawyers Top 100, which is an invitation-only organization that recognizes the top 100 trial lawyers in each state.  During law school, I worked for the Navy JAG, NCIS division in Washington, DC and also clerked for the United States Attorney's Office in Charleston. After graduating from law school, I began my legal career at the Ninth Circuit Solicitor's Office, focusing my efforts on prosecuting criminal domestic violence cases. Starting my career focusing specifically on prosecuting criminal domestic violence cases provided me with a unique opportunity to learn from the ground up the ins and outs of the criminal justice system, including the experience negotiating pleas and trying countless bench trials. I was promoted to the violent crime team where I seized the opportunity to handle all types of violent crimes, ranging from assault and battery to drug crimes to armed robberies to attempted murder cases.I have also successfully represented personal injury clients in negotiations, mediations and litigation of their claims. I provide a personalized approach towards personal injury cases by not working for big insurance companies or corporate clients. I work for the individual client and focusing on their needs. My goal is to make sure his clients receive the maximum compensation available, whether that means a trial or through successful pretrial negotiations.In addition to my personal injury and criminal defense clients, I am the legal advisor for Hunting for Healing Inc., which is a charitable organization aimed at providing positive outdoor events and hunts for disabled United States military veterans and spouses.  I counsel the organization on legal issues to ensure Hunting for Healing can best serve the military community.  I also work as a prosecutor for the city of Folly Beach. As a Folly Beach prosecutor, I have gained insight and experience that is ultimately beneficial to my private clients. Courtroom exposure, a sharpened skill set and building a strong reputation as a trial attorney are only a few client benefits. Additionally, this experience has provided me with knowledge regarding what is needed by a prosecutor to convict or prove a case- which, in turn, helps me understand what is necessary in building the strongest defense possible.

Adam Young saved my life. I was charged with two charges that would’ve ruined my professional life. My arresting officer seemed to like me and told me to hire Adam if I had the money to do so. It was the best money I’ve spent in my entire life. Within a few months Adam Young got both of my charges dropped and expunged, and I got my life back without having to go to a single court hearing or worry about any details of my case (because he confidently told me I’m not going to go to jail and my charges would be dropped upon hiring him.) He also did the same thing for my girlfriend a few months later. He’s the best criminal defense attorney money can buy in the Charleston area.

There are some people who make a huge difference in your life direction. Adam Young, thanks to his wisdom, confidence, professionalism and compassion, is one of those people. A family member was wrongly accused and Adam did what was necessary to have the charge dropped and record expunged. We will be forever grateful for him and his abilities as the BEST defense attorney in Charleston.

Adam is professional and to the point and gets the job done with positivity, confidence and dedication to the needs of his clients and their families. He adds a warm, personal touch that is very endearing but takes affirmative action which exudes success. Top shelf without a doubt. I highly recommend his services and would not hesitate to call on him again should the need arise.

Adam Young and Kelly Young's experts in criminal law was unmatched in the Charleston community. Their knowledge and connections got me the best results. By far the best lawyer that I have ever hired. He's a little bit more expensive for a DUI then everyone else in town but worth every dollar.

I recently hired Adam Young by referral of a few friends. He was a huge help in getting my issue referred and hopefully dismissed. Great guy, good guy, and he took care of everything; I didn't have to miss any work to go to court.

I was a College of Charleston student. I had three arrests, all of which I hired attorney David Aylor for. I never actually met David, and never was able to successfully get my charges dropped. I decided to take my charges to Adam Young. Not only was he able to have all charges expunged, he was incredibly personable, communicative, and potent. I found myself with a clean record within 3 months of hiring Adam Young. Best lawyer in Charleston.

I had a recent case against me, and turned to adam young to help me. Im from florida and live in florida. I never got the honor of meeting him unfortunately. Yet, still being over 500 miles away, and only communicating by phone, he helped me fix my legal troubles in Charleston SC immensely. I'm honored to have been represented by him, and I wish to only thank him more.

in today's society it's very hard to take someone's word. Well, Adam Young representing me sure proved me wrong . Through his hard work in what he does I am proud to have hired him and I gatauntee you won't regret chosing Mr. Young. Glad I am stress free of all court visits as well as charges that could've been placed on my record for possibly forever . Adam Young is who you want to represent you.

Adam Young is an excellent lawyer. I made a few mistakes with underage drinking tickets and Adam stepped in to take care of everything. He never made promises he could not keep and was always there for me, no matter the time of day. I did not have to call his secretary or an associate lawyer, he always made him self available, to my self or my parents via calls, texts, emails ANYTHING!

I have no past criminal record and was caught up in sweep while visiting Charleston. It could have been the worst day of my life personally and professionally, however, Adam was able to handle it in the most discreet manner. He set me at ease, explained how the process would work and delivered as promised. He kept me up to date through every step responded to every inquiry I had within the same day. I am very grateful. Simply couldn't ask for more.
