I was fortunate to have Adam Schanz and Brittney Stone as my divorce attorneys. If you find yourself in the unfortunate and often tumultuous situation of going through a divorce, look no further. These are legal professionals you need in your corner.
My divorce, though not taken to court, encountered unexpected complications that extended the timeline. The guidance and expertise from Adam and Brittney were invaluable. They helped me navigate the complexities of divorce law, ensuring that I fully understood my rights, options, and potential outcomes. Their attention to detail, persistence, and dedication to my case were evident in every interaction.
I wholeheartedly endorse their services for anyone seeking legal representation during a divorce. Thank you, Adam and Brittney, for helping me navigate this difficult time with fairness and compassion.

We are so grateful that Adam Schanz was our attorney. He helped us navigate the confusing and emotional journey for me to legally adopt my son. I really appreciated his prompt and effective communication of any issue and the resolution. I understood the process clearly and what I needed to do in order to adopt. Adam sent over all of the paperwork with explicit instructions that made this process very easy and efficient. Adam is extremely knowledgeable, thoughtful, and most importantly, he was always very generous with his time. My wife, son, and I did not have to go to court to finalize the adoption - Adam went and took care of everything on our behalf. Thank you Adam!

Adam got me through one of life's most stressful times - divorce. I felt he was always there for me. He got back to me almost instantly with the answer to my "crisis" question of the moment. Equally as important, Adam knew the need for understanding and compassion during this time.

I contacted Adam for a child custody case. Adam was easy to work with, quick, thorough, and understood my budget. He was available anytime I needed something - whether in person, over the phone, or via email. My kids are now happy with their situation & that is because of Adam's hard work.

I am very grateful for Adam’s help, and I would highly recommend his services to all. It is a very stressful to be in a situation that requires legal representation. However, if you find yourself in such a spot, Adam is the advocate to guide you. It makes all the difference to have an expert like Adam on your side as he was able to accomplish what I could not do on my own.
Adam stepped in the night before my hearing and handled an unusual and very stressful matter for me, with great skill and compassion. His brilliant knowledge and composed professionalism achieved a positive resolution to the case.
I enthusiastically give Adam a five stars rating. He was a superstar at my hearing. He helped me through a very difficult time while stepping in at the last minute, advocating for the best possible outcome. All the while having empathy for the stress I was going through. I would recommend Adam to friends, family and colleagues. You will not find a better advocate!

Due to a looming deadline within weeks, I needed an attorney for a prenuptial agreement. I had heard about Adam through a friend. I had also contacted two other attorneys, neither of whom were as quick to respond. Adam reached out to me within 1 hour. We discussed my case and within days the agreement was more or less done. All the paperwork, mailings, and communication with my (now) husband's attorney was done within 1-2 weeks. During that time, he was incredibly responsive, returning my emails/calls several times daily. Communicating with him was easy and efficient. Since then he referred me to another attorney for a unrelated matter, and despite the fact that I wasn't using his services, was impressed that he was just as responsive as if he had been my own attorney. I would recommend him.

Consulted Adam for a Joinder and felt confident and comfortable her would represent us properly so we hired him the same day.
He worked great with my sons divorce attorney on the Joinder and I had a great outcome. Adam was very patient when he explained the process and what to expect. He was so patient listening to my frustrations.
This was my first time having to deal with a Joinder or being brought in to court in general and he made me feel very comfortable with his skills.
I strongly recommend Adam, he is professional and was a pleasure to work with.

I had a family law issue that was unusual, and I contacted quite a few family law and elder law attorneys who I'd found online with quotes or articles about the issue central to my case. The bottom line was that none of them wanted to take it on, as it was not something they'd actually litigated before. Finally, an attorney I called, who had extremely impressive credentials, told me that while she wouldn't take my case, she knew an attorney she thought might be interested. She referred me to Adam Schanz, and after speaking with him on the phone, we met and spent about an hour discussing my case. Although Adam told me he'd never litigated this particular issue before, he demonstrated a sound understanding of the various arguments and aspects of the case, and said he was eager to represent our side, as he strongly believed we were in the right.
The case was argued before two judges, and lasted several months. Adam was unfailingly diligent and caring, and remained supportive and optimistic even when things didn't go exactly as we'd have wished. He argued our case with passion and vigor, both in written filings and in the courtroom. He was well prepared, and articulate, and able to think on his feet. He seemed well liked by both judges and was very comfortable in the courtroom.
The final result of our case was better than our most hopeful expectations. A total and complete victory, and vindication of our long held contentions regarding the law. Adam never wavered in his belief that this was the outcome we would achieve, and we were very grateful for his services.
I do not hesitate to recommend Adam as a family law attorney. We consider ourselves lucky to have found him.

Adam has been very good at mitigating issues throughout my case, he is a strong advocate for his clients . His interpersonal communicating style is uniquely calm, courteous and positive for a strong attorney. Absolutely excellent at child support issues. Adam is extremely thorough with documents and timelines and is always prepared in advance making the process a relief. Adam facilitates his entire firm in communicating well with their clients. He has been responsive and always available during my case and has been a wealth of knowledge. Great at explaining to me the unknown aspects of the process in a way I can understand easily. Throughout my case Adam has always worked extremely fast and efficiently and doesn't eat up billing time unreasonably by doing so. He has always prepared and ahead of the ball during my case. Adam has a friendly demeanor and has always remained calm and positive at all times. Adam speaks clearly and concisely, sticking to the facts, making him excellent in the court room. He also doesn't miss a beat and is always focused on the best outcome both in and out of the court room. Most importantly, I find Adam to be extremely trust worthy, which is difficult to find in an attorney. He has been a joy to work with.

Adam was our first contact in a sea of lawyers who were either unable to be reached or wanted a hefty retainer to give any insight about anything. Adam is the most honorable person we have encountered regarding our case. He is so genuine, reasonable, and well spoken. He pointed us in the right direction when we were completely lost and vulnerable.

I consulted Attorney Schanz regarding attorney fees that my daughter had incurred while trying to keep her ex from challenging and lowering her support payments. I knew I could turn to him and receive a fair and unbiased assessment of what was right and wrong. I would have hired Attorney Schanz in the first place if I could if my daughter hadn't insisted on working with an attorney who had been a friend from High School. Adam reviewed legal documents on our behalf in a timely manner using out of office time to do so. THAT was really impressive. Attorney Schanz provided excellent analysis and advice and his comunication was timely and truly helpful. In working with Adam I have found him to be a sincere and caring professional. He is also most sympathetic and helpful when I consulted him about a friend of my son whose father refused to pay his college tuition even though it was part of his parents' divorce settlement. If you hire Adam you will not be disappointed. If he is on your team you will be supported, given professional and accurate legal advise. He will not mislead you and you will be treated fairly and ethically. Apart from his sympathy and compassion he is also a great communicator which is often lacking from representatives in the legal profession.
