Adam Rossen

In this episode of "Celebrating Justice," trial lawyer Adam Rossen details his transition from pre-med student to passionate criminal defense attorney. 

Initially inspired by his love for arguing and watching "Law and Order," Adam pursued law to become a trial lawyer and started his career as a prosecutor. He appreciated the hands-on experience and quickly realized his desire to help people extended beyond the confines of the state attorney's office. Adam's transition to criminal defense was initially challenging, requiring a mindset shift from prosecuting to defending. He eventually founded a successful defense firm with his colleague. His ability to relate to clients, explain complex legal concepts in simple terms, and build trust has set him apart in the courtroom.

Adam shares notable cases that have shaped his career, including a memorable trial where a client was found not guilty of DUI despite blowing twice the legal limit, thanks to the unique defense involving a shark bite injury. In a more recent case involving a contractor dispute after a hurricane, Adam's firm worked for five years to secure justice for their client, ultimately resulting in a mistrial due to the prosecution's mishandling.

In his “Closing Argument,” Adam highlights the profound impact his mentor, Ben Glass, had on his career. Ben's advice to grow the law firm to help more people has been a guiding principle. Adam emphasizes the importance of expanding the practice to create a larger positive impact on the community.
