"I’m incredibly grateful to William for his support in drafting a settlement agreement related to a long and frustrating dispute with the homebuilder and prior seller over improperly installed flooring. From the start, William was exceptionally attentive—he took the time to truly understand my concerns, asked thoughtful questions, and made sure every detail reflected my needs. What stood out most was his thoroughness and availability. He answered every question with clarity and patience, never making me feel rushed or dismissed. He walked me through the process step by step, ensuring I felt informed and empowered throughout. His professionalism, clear communication, and legal insight made a complex process feel manageable—and genuinely supported."

I focus my practice on startups and small to mid-size businesses, because they have unique needs that mid-size and large law firms aren't well-equipped to service. In addition to practicing law, I have started and run other businesses, and have an MBA in marketing from Indiana University. I combine my business experience with my legal expertise, to provide practical advice to my clients. I am licensed in Ohio and California, and I leverage the latest in technology to provide top quality legal services to a nationwide client-base. This enables me to serve my clients in a cost-effective manner that doesn't skimp on personal service.

Business Attorney

Asheville, NC
18 Yrs Experience
Licensed in CA
University of Pennsylvania

I'm a California-licensed attorney with 18+ years of experience helping everyone from Fortune 500 companies and venture-backed startups to individuals navigating real-life legal situations. I bring an high degree of emotional intelligence to every matter, and am also certified as both a coach and as a counselor. My career started at Fenwick & West, one of Silicon Valley's top law firms, where I worked alongside names like Google, Airbnb, Kleiner Perkins, and Sequoia Capital. From there I moved in - house at companies like Cloudflare, Autodesk, and Enphase - which gave me a practical, business-minded perspective that I bring to every client, no matter the size of the matter. Today I work with businesses and individuals alike. On the business side, that means commercial contracts, leases, startup corporate work, and serving as a fractional general counsel for companies that need a trusted legal partner without the overhead. On the personal side, I help individuals with employment matters, disputes, demand letters, contract review, and the kind of everyday legal situations where you just need someone knowledgeable in your corner. I'm direct, responsive, and I speak plain English — not legalese. Whether you're a founder closing your first deal or an individual facing a situation you've never navigated before, I'll give you the same level of attention and care.

"I hired Adam to assist with a property damage claim arising from a multi-car accident after months of delays, inspections, repair estimates, and back-and-forth communications with the insurance company had failed to produce any meaningful progress. Adam quickly got up to speed on a fairly complicated situation involving multiple claimants, potential policy-limit concerns, conflicting positions from adjusters, and repair estimates from Tesla-affiliated repair facilities. He drafted an exceptionally strong demand letter that clearly laid out the facts, documented the damages, and forced the insurance company to seriously evaluate the claim. What impressed me most was that Adam didn't simply send a demand letter and move on. He remained actively engaged throughout the process—reviewing responses, discussing strategy, speaking directly with the adjusters, and continually pushing the matter forward when it appeared the claim had stalled. He knew when to apply pressure, when to be patient, and how to keep negotiations productive. In the end, he achieved a result that exceeded my expectations. Given where the claim stood before his involvement, I am confident the outcome would have been significantly worse without his assistance. Adam is thoughtful, responsive, strategic, and an excellent communicator. If you need an attorney who can effectively negotiate with insurance companies, cut through delays, and advocate for a fair resolution, I would not hesitate to recommend him. Thank you, Adam."
