Adam J.

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."

"Daron was excellent for helping with my prenup! He was incredibly responsive and worked with me when we had to make last minute changes to our plan due to the other party’s lawyers making some big mistakes, which Daron was able to correct! He was also great about explaining the process in simplified terms that I could understand."

"I had the pleasure of working with Laura B. on some recent legal matters, and I genuinely can’t recommend her enough. From start to finish, Laura was professional, responsive, and incredibly efficient. What really stood out to me was how thorough and proactive she was — she didn’t just check the boxes, she went above and beyond to make sure everything was done properly and on time. Legal work can feel overwhelming, but Laura made the entire process smooth and stress-free. She explained everything clearly, answered all my questions promptly, and stayed one step ahead the entire way. I never had to chase her for updates — she was always on top of it, which gave me a ton of peace of mind. It’s rare to find someone who combines legal expertise with such a down-to-earth, approachable style. I felt like I was in really good hands the whole time. I’ll absolutely be working with Laura again for any legal needs that come up in the future, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a sharp, dependable, and genuinely helpful attorney."
