Biography

Adam J. Russ is a Member in Gordon Arata Montgomery Barnett's Houston office, where he litigates cases in state and federal courts throughout Texas and Ohio. Adam relocated to Texas in December 2018 after serving for thirteen years as a commercial litigation associate and partner for a nationally ranked, full-service firm of more than sixty attorneys in Cleveland, Ohio.

Throughout his career, Adam has helped individuals and businesses of various sizes solve their most challenging problems, whether inside the courtroom or working to avoid it. He has comprehensive experience in complex contract disputes, consumer protection, creditors’ rights, employment and various statutory and tort-related claims across healthcare, banking, financial services, insurance, retail, construction, transportation and manufacturing industries.

Having tried cases to verdict, Adam understands the heavy burden and expense of trials. Clients have come to value his practical and pragmatic solutions, including developing nuanced procedural and technical defenses to achieve dismissal and summary judgment. Responsiveness, persistence and command of the case at hand are hallmarks of his practice.

In the years since graduation, Adam has actively served his alma mater. He serves as a regular instructor in Notre Dame Law School’s Intensive Trial Advocacy program.
