Mr. Adam Michael Dreher

Adam Dreher joined Nacht Law in 2025 after nearly a decade as a prosecutor. He was born and raised in Ypsilanti, but following the attacks on September 11, 2001, he enlisted in the United States Army and served as a Cavalry Scout with two combat tours to Iraq. Adam returned to Ypsilanti using the G.I. Bill to graduate from Eastern Michigan University and Michigan State University College of Law. At both schools, he began to hone his trial skills early by representing each school at mock trial and moot court competitions across the country. Before becoming a prosecutor, he interned in the appellate division of the Washtenaw County Prosecutor’s Office, where he gained valuable experience in Michigan’s appellate courts.

As a prosecutor, Adam worked hundreds of cases ranging from low-level misdemeanor offenses to complex international drug-trafficking prosecutions. He began his career in Ionia County, Michigan, where he prosecuted drunk driving offenses, assault and battery cases, and felony property crimes. Early in his career, Adam argued a case before the Michigan Supreme Court, a rare opportunity for a county prosecutor, which showcased his ability to master complex legal issues and advocate persuasively at the highest level of Michigan’s judiciary. Later, Adam joined the Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office, where he was assigned to prosecute homicide offenses and non-fatal shootings within the City of Detroit. The capstone of Adam’s career as a prosecutor was his appointment as an Assistant United States Attorney, where he prosecuted violent crime and drug trafficking offenses in Washington, D.C. At each level, Adam excelled in the courtroom.
