Rodney C. Adams

Rod’s legal practice is focused in the areas of real estate, business, estate planning, municipal law and personal injury. He celebrates his 50th Anniversary with the firm in 2010 and when asked to what he credits his longevity, Rod will tell the hallmarks are “working hard and being honest.”

Rod earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Oregon in 1957. He attended Willamette University’s College of Law in Salem and, upon graduation, joined the firm when it went by the name of its founding partners, Castles & Musick.

Rod became a name partner in 1965 when the firm was renamed Thompson & Adams. He served as City Attorney for Beaverton from 1965 to 1970, and as the attorney for Tualatin Hills Parks & Recreation for more than 46 years.

Rod ‘s personal life includes close relationships with his family, travel, golf, and he also celebrates a milestone in 2010 with his 50th anniversary of marriage.
