"Sam, you are without a doubt the best criminal lawyer in Texas, period. You made it possible for me to regain my freedom from something I didn’t do, and for that, I will forever be grateful. Please know I will always recommend your firm to anyone who needs a real, true professional in their corner. Sam helped me beat a FALSE robbery assault and battery with a deadly weapon charge. He kept my abuser away from me, he called me weekly with updates on my case, he believed in me when no one else did. He never missed a court appearance, and he fought for me till the very end, which was a Dismissal!!! Not sure why my past post didn’t post but I WILL FOREVER BE GRATEFUL FOR SAM AND HIS FIRM!!!!! Thank you again for everything. Kaelan Rae Barrick!"

"I have known Sam for over twenty years. I've always known him to be competitive but extremely kind. I was recently in a car accident and the first person I thought to call was Sam. He was responsive, knowledgeable, confident, and - most importantly - has was calming. Sam is a "man's man" who happens to be a fantastic attorney. I highly recommend Sam for your legal needs."

"We are beyond grateful for the exceptional service provided by Adamo & Adamo Law Firm. They handled my husband's case with utmost professionalism and dedication. From the very beginning, their team was attentive, responsive, and truly committed to achieving the best possible outcome for us. Marissa Montenegro, the paralegal we worked closely with, was particularly outstanding. She kept us informed throughout the entire process, answered all our questions promptly, and provided invaluable support during a very stressful time. Thanks to their expertise and hard work, we received a favorable resolution. I highly recommend Adamo & Adamo Law Firm to anyone in need of legal assistance. Their compassionate approach and remarkable legal skills make them stand out. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Thank you again to everyone at Adamo & Adamo for your excellent service."

"Hello, I wanted to formally give you and your team some feedback regarding my case. I received some unfair charges in 2023 for defending my life. And unfortunately the court system did not see it that way, and charged me with up to 20yrs or more in prison. When I received that notice/information, I thought my life was over. I have my daughter’s life in my hands, who relied on me, in which made me feel like what will I do. What will happen to my children and family that depended on me? Well, Thanks to the Law firm of Adamo Adamo and his Team, they were able to take my case and work diligently. Thanks to them and their hard work, I was able to get my charges withdrawn in a very great manner and in sufficient time. Something that could have taken years to get cleared. I am very satisfied with the results since the case was dismissed. Sufficient Evidence of the Legal Defense, this shows that they did a good job. My family and I will be eternally grateful to them. I do not want to stop mentioning and can’t give enough thanks to Ms. Mariza Montenegro, who was always with me from the beginning. I highly recommend their Law Firm and team to Adamo-Adamo. With Great gratitude and appreciation, God Bless You All."
