About

Adam Said Awad, a native of California's Central Valley and a first-generation law school graduate, brings a wealth of experience and dedication to Sawl Law Group. Adam graduated with honors in Pre-Law from Fresno Pacific University, where he also captained the Men’s Cross Country and Track Teams. During his undergraduate years, Adam demonstrated leadership beyond athletics as the president and founder of the Real United Nations Delegation, successfully leading a team to compete at the prestigious Harvard National Model U.N. Competition.

Adam’s journey into Criminal Law began early as an intern at the Fresno County Public Defender’s Office at just 21 years old. During his internship, he contributed to complex and high-profile cases, including a gang-related double homicide and a Sexually Violent Predator Trial. He gained extensive firsthand experience in case research, investigations, and trial preparations.

While earning his Juris Doctorate from San Joaquin College of Law, Adam further honed his legal skills as a certified law clerk with several criminal defense firms in the Central Valley. In this role, he successfully drafted and argued numerous sentencing and suppression motions before the Fresno County Superior Court, achieving favorable outcomes for clients.

Following graduation, Adam continued to excel as a post-bar clerk for a prominent Central California defense attorney. He played a key role in preparing federal motions during the pandemic, including compassionate release applications for at-risk inmates. In the Fall of 2020, Adam obtained his Provisional License to practice law in California and worked with Fitzgerald, Alvarez, and Ciummo in Madera County. There, he managed hundreds of misdemeanor and felony cases, conducted nearly 100 preliminary hearings, and achieved numerous dismissals and charge reductions.

Adam’s dedication to his clients is evident in his comprehensive experience, which spans bench trials, felony reductions, and appellate work. Adam is committed to providing vigorous, knowledgeable, and empathetic representation for every client he serves.

    "Previous lawyers did not meet my expectations with their professionalism, concern or attentiveness. Sawl Law Group was very welcoming and understanding."

    This was the first time I had ever been involved in any situation like this. I had spoken with a few lawyers before heading to Sawl Law Group. The previous lawyers did not meet my expectations with their professionalism, concern or attentiveness. Sawl Law Group was very welcoming and understanding.

    They took immediate ownership of the problem at hand. This problem had wrecked havoc on my life by draining my time and my finances. Sawl Law Group was affordable and handled the case so I wasn’t required to miss work and physically be present. I would highly recommend Sawl Law Group to friends, family and anyone who needs a tough lawyer to receive justice.

    "Right away you can see this is a very professional firm. They did everything they said they would, including working things out so I did not have to appear in court."

    This was the first time I had needed to hire an attorney. I met with 7 different lawyers before I decided. Right away you can see this is a very professional firm. They did everything they said they would, including working things out so I did not have to appear in court. I am very pleased with the service and the way the case was handled. I would and do recommend them to my friends.

    "They are experienced in accident cases and fight for what money you deserve. They are honest and inform their clients on what to expect."

    I highly recommend this firm. They are very busy, so sometimes you may need to be persistent in calling them. BUT they are experienced in accidents cases and fight for what money you deserve. They are honest and inform their clients on what to expect. Their lien doctors are excellent. You get all the medical treatment you need.

    "This was such a relief to me. My fee was very affordable, and I was able to be put on a payment arrangement. I couldn’t of asked for better service."

    Sawl Law Group was such a big help to me. I would definitely recommend anyone who needs a lawyer to them. I currently live in a different state and was unable to appear in court. Sawl Law Group stood in on my behalf. I was so grateful. In the end my warrant was recalled, and I was able to complete the stipulations of my case in my current state. This was such a relief to me. My fee was very affordable, and I was able to be put on a payment arrangement. I couldn’t of asked for better service. My person of contact was Claudia, and she was very helpful, and informative. She answered all my questions, always contacted me back when a message was left, and was always available for me. She walked me through the whole process and I appreciate her support. I just want to thank my lawyer Michelle for working on my behalf and Sawl Law Group for helping me out when I most needed it. So if your searching for a good lawyer who would work on your behalf, please choose Sawl Law Group.

    "They were able to lower my DUI to a much lesser charge of “Wet Reckless” saving me thousands of dollars, and time. So thank you Sawl Law Group, Claudia, and Michelle."

    I just wanted to say a few things about Sawl Law Group. I had never needed to hire an attorney before, so I didn’t know what I was doing, or what to expect. When i had just been charged with a DUI; I had a pile of law offices to choose from. The first one that stood out was Sawl Law Group. They were very professional, and welcoming. Claudia made a long drive, just to meet with me face to face, and have a short conversation about my case, and my options. She made me feel confident that I could do much better than I had hoped. Claudia paired me up with Michelle, the attorney that would then, represent me. She took care of all my court dates (after signing a document of course) which was especially helpful with my crazy work schedule. Not only that, but they were able to lower my DUI to a much lesser charge of “Wet Reckless” saving me thousands of dollars, and time. So thank you Sawl Law Group, Claudia, and Michelle. And to anyone else who finds themselves in a bind; I definitely recommend starting here!
