We want to hear from you, but before you click the “ACCEPT” button below, please be aware of the following:

Sending an email to Adams and Reese LLP does not create an attorney-client relationship.  We do not accept client representations by email.  We do not treat unsolicited information received by email from our website as confidential.

If you are contacting us about a possible representation, we cannot represent you until we know that we would not have a conflict of interest.  Please do not send us any information about a potential representation until you communicate with one of our lawyers by telephone or in person about representation. 

By clicking “ACCEPT” you agree that we may review any information you send us, and that we do not need to consider it confidential.  You also agree that our review of your email or any information in it, even if you submitted it in a good faith effort to retain us, and even if you consider it confidential, will not preclude us from representing another client directly adverse to you, even in a matter where that information could and will be used against you.

Please click “ACCEPT” if you understand and accept the foregoing statement and wish to proceed.

My mission is not only addressing today’s problems, but also identifying and strategizing for the problems my clients may face tomorrow. I love practicing law because I deeply appreciate developing personal and professional relationships, and I enjoy being continuously challenged as the law and society evolve around us.
