I grew up in East Brunswick, New Jersey, which is about an hour outside of New York City. I graduated from Brandeis University with a B.A. and M.A. in politics, and from there went directly on to law school at the University of Virginia.

After law school, I joined the litigation department of a large New York City law firm, and after a few more stops, am currently the head of the litigation department of Pavia & Harcourt LLP, which is located in midtown Manhattan. Pavia & Harcourt.

I have written 8 novels -- A Conflict of Interest (2011); A Case of Redemption (2013); Losing Faith (2015); The Girl From Home (2016); Dead Certain (2017); Never Goodbye (2018); A Matter of Will (2019); and The Best Friend (2020).

Nothing pleases me more than hearin ...more

Quotes by Adam Mitzner (?)

“Looks like we’re both early worms,” she said. “Birds,” he said. “What?” “Early birds. They’re the ones who catch the worms. Worms are always there, I think.”

“My murderer has deprived me of very little. There are the years I will not live, but set against the vastness of eternity, the time I’ve lost is but a moment. What is forever is the same as if I’d lived another sixty years or more: those I loved will always be a part of me, and I will never cease being a part of those who loved me. I did not want to speak”
― Adam Mitzner, Dead Certain
