Biography

Adam Horowitz has built a career on the belief that no obstacle is too great when it comes to helping survivors of sexual abuse find justice and heal. He isn’t just an attorney, he is a passionate advocate who has represented thousands of individuals across the country in their fight against powerful entities. From exposing the Catholic Church’s clergy scandals to taking on high-profile figures like Jeffrey Epstein, Adam has a reputation for being both aggressive in the courtroom and deeply compassionate with his clients. He’s secured landmark results, including a record-setting $70 million jury verdict and a precedent-setting victory for Native American survivors against the federal government. His peers recognize him as a leader in the field, evidenced by his AV Preeminent rating and the 2024 Legacy of Justice award. While he is frequently cited in national media like the New York Times and CNN for his groundbreaking work, his primary focus remains on the person behind the case. Adam understands the trauma his clients have faced and provides the steady legal expertise and genuine support they need to reclaim their lives and move forward with dignity.
