Daniel M. Adams
Prior to entering private practice, Dan Adams worked as an Assistant District Attorney for the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office and as a Deputy District Attorney in Carson City, Nevada. In those roles Attorney Adams was responsible for prosecuting thousands of drunk driving, theft, burglary, fraud, narcotics, child abuse, property, gaming, and complex white collar offenses.
As a prosecutor, Dan tried dozens of cases before juries and over 50 cases to the bench, obtaining convictions in most cases and developing a reputation as a tough, diligent, and thoughtful attorney.
Dan has lectured at police academies, instructing cadets on criminal justice and constitutional concepts. He also advised police in their day-to-day and long-term investigations.
In private practice, Dan uses his vast experience in criminal law to help his clients successfully navigate through the criminal justice system.
In his spare time, Dan is a sought after political pundit having appeared on several Milwaukee-area TV and radio programs, including over 80 regular appearances on TMJ4’s Sunday Insight with Charlie Sykes and a weekly hour-long segment on WTMJ620’s Steve Scaffidi Show called “Adams v. Roth.”
