Adams, Duerk & Kamenstein (ADK) is a Los Angeles-based, nationally active litigation boutique that handles white collar criminal defense and investigations, complex civil litigation, and sensitive internal investigations. Clients come to us for solutions to their most critical legal challenges, from business disputes with millions on the line to allegations that threaten their livelihoods. Our firm pairs broad reach with deep experience across numerous industries. We represent individuals and organizations of all sizes—from leading executives and elected officials to startups, nonprofits, Fortune 500 companies, and world-renowned universities—in state and federal courts nationwide, combining keen fact-finding instincts with proven litigation skills to prevail when the stakes are highest. ADK is staffed by veterans of top law firms, government agencies, and in-house legal departments. As seasoned trial lawyers, we start with the endgame, preparing every case for the eventuality of trial. By optimally positioning cases at their outset, we help clients stay in control of the narrative and build the leverage they need to win. At the same time, we engage in diligent negotiations behind the scenes, relying on our reputation for “the highest standards of professional integrity” (Chambers USA) to secure favorable resolutions outside of court. ADK functions as a highly agile team, able to adapt to—and overcome—any hurdle. We respond in kind to fast-moving proceedings, keeping clients one step ahead of the opposition and out of the public eye. Our size gives us the flexibility to meet the unique needs of each case, often in the form of bespoke strategies that minimize costs while maximizing value.
