Amiel Wade

​

As a police officer-turned-attorney, Amiel Wade has dedicated his entire career to protecting and serving the public. In 2003, after four years on the force, he turned in his badge and started his own practice, Wade Law Group. Today, Amiel leads an award-winning practice named 2021 Best Business Litigation Law Firm by New World Report. With 30 employees and 13 lawyers who are trial experts focused on family and probate law and business litigation, the California-based practice represents clients across the state. “When I started the firm, I looked at the people we're serving and built every aspect of it around them, instead of thrusting people into a generic model that sees them only as dollar signs,” he says. “I wanted to rescue people from litigation. I wanted to be that person who took their stress away.” With the goal of building client relationships and achieving client satisfaction second to none, he’s built a thriving firm that’s doing just that.

​

Over the last two decades, Amiel has helped hundreds of clients prevail. He’s represented clients in pre-litigation disputes, mediation, and arbitration matters as well as commercial and serious personal injury cases, including an $11 million jury verdict for a client who was hit by a car. He’s also negotiated multimillion-dollar disputes, lawsuits, and business contracts. Amiel has been named a 2021 Top Ten California Attorney by the National Academy of Family Law Attorneys and a Top Ten Attorney by the American Institute of Family Law Attorneys, among others. In recognition of his outstanding service, Amiel received the Martindale-Hubbell Honor of Distinction, which is awarded to fewer than 4% of over 900,000 attorneys for the number of client reviews averaging 4.8 or better. All this in addition to his 10.0 Avvo rating. “Client satisfaction is the hallmark of everything we do—every policy we put in place, every procedure, and every system are all with that goal in mind,” he shares. “My greatest accomplishment is all the smiles that I have been able to bring to my clients’ faces by getting them the results they deserve.”

Amiel graduated from Rutgers Law School with honors where he served as president of the student body.
