Adam Ferguson was very helpful to me in determining whether to move forward with a law suit. In the end we decided against it, so I didn’t actually use his services. However he was extremely responsive to all of my questions, and took the time to explain carefully. I would not hesitate to use him if I had a case!
I would highly recommend working with Adam Ferguson from Ferguson Law Group. His informative advice and expertise in working with family members, pertaining to my Mother’s Trust, prepared us for the future and gave us suggestions for a better outcome that I never would have thought of. Thank you Adam!
Adam is extremely diligent and professional. We had a rare case and Adam was so nice in helping depose my family when one of my grandparents fell ill and passed away at a time their estate planning was an absolute mess. Adam and his team are extremely knowledgeable and well versed in the areas of estate and business planning. Highly recommend.
Adam helped us build our family trust and guided us through ALL the other documents we needed to have for our family should there be an emergency. He was smart and explained everything to us in a way we could understand so we felt confident in our documents. Adam also give me a great recommendation for a lawyer that works in a different specialty.
Adam and staff are a great team. My wife and I felt like we were valued as clients from the moment we met in his office. Adam sat down with us and explained trusts and answered all of our questions. His staff was always there to handle any other questions and concerns, appointments, etc. I was referred to the Ferguson Law Group by a client, and will definitely forward Adam’s contact to any friends and family who need to work with a trust attorney.

My husband and I had been putting off updating our trust for quite awhile. Once we made the decision, we were glad we did. Working with Debra was so comfortable. She was very professional and thorough making sure we understood every page of the documents created for us before the final signing. The atmosphere in the office was pleasant and friendly.
We recommend Ferguson Law Group highly.
[Ferguson Law Group is] Great to work with, Debra was especially great. Appreciate her and Theresa willing to come in on a Saturday to accommodate us to sign documents. Very thorough and quick in their work. Had our estate binder less than a week after we signed and they took care of the retitling with the county for our house, etc. and thoroughly explained what we needed to do to make the changes on our bank accounts. Would highly recommend!!
