About Adam Rodrigues Law

Adam Rodrigues is a native Tennessean who returned home in 2021 to launch his own appellate and collateral‐relief practice—offering partner-level attention and unwavering advocacy on every case.

After graduating college, Adam went to seminary and got his MDiv. He then honed deep empathy and a client-first approach while pastoring for almost five years in North Carolina. After earning his J.D. at the University of North Carolina School of Law, Adam guided numerous federal inmates and state clients through complex compassionate release motions and state post conviction petitions during the COVID-19 pandemic. Soon afterward Adam secured a landmark workplace-harassment settlement. While he enjoyed advocating for clients in civil rights lawsuits, he is now committed exclusively to appellate and collateral relief in criminal courts, doing all he can to help restore rights and protect futures.
