A graduate of Little Rock Catholic High School, Yale University, and the University of Michigan Law School, Adams brings two decades of legal experience representing Arkansans. As a justice, he promises to apply the facts and law fairly, follow our Constitution, and help build a better justice system for all Arkansans.
“I have spent my life in the law protecting Arkansans from all kinds of unfairness and from an overreaching, intrusive government,” said Adams. “The Constitution of Arkansas says the voters get to pick the Supreme Court justices. My opponent was appointed and if he remains unopposed, he will get a full decade on the court without facing the voters. I believe the voters of Arkansas should have a voice in this process."

Adams has represented Arkansas localities, businesses, and individuals in both trial and appellate courts. His peer attorneys have recognized him as one of America's Best Lawyers for appellate practice, banking and finance, and commercial finance law.

Committed to equal justice, Adams has maintained an active pro bono practice, including representing Arkansans jailed for unpaid fines and fees.

Before attending law school, Adams taught at Subiaco Academy. He has also served as an adjunct professor at the UA-Little Rock Bowen School of Law, teaching night classes on ethics, tax, commercial, and constitutional law.

Adams lives in Little Rock with his wife of twenty years, Skye, and their three children James, Maggie, and Sydney. An active member of St. Margaret's Episcopal Church, Adams is teaching Sunday School on the Gospel of John, his favorite book from the Bible.
