PARTNER
TURNBULL BROCKMEYER LAW GROUP
Adele Louise Brockmeyer found her love of law and the desire to help people at a young age when she spent time in the courtroom and doing trial prep with her father since she was 12. The third-generation attorney is now a partner at Turnbull Brockmeyer Law Group. Besides criminal law, she also handles protective orders, civil and domestic cases.
What’s the most important thing you do in your job?
Our firm strives to fulfill the life-long mission of my father, R. Roland Brockmeyer, Esquire, who believed he could change people’s lives for the better, one client at a time. We represent multiple generations of families in Baltimore stretching back into the mid-1960s. Our clients are as loyal to us as we are to them, and this doesn’t happen by going through the motions. You must be willing to roll up your sleeves and get down to work if you truly want to help people make positive changes.
What is one aspect of your profession you would like to change?
Aside from the obvious answer that we should all try to be more civil with one another, it would be nice if attorneys were better equipped to walk a mile in the shoes of the opposing party. Perspective and life experience matter and mold our perceptions of the world around us. A little empathy in this business goes a long way.
If you weren’t in this industry, what would you be doing?
I would definitely be in the marketing and advertising world. I love the creativity and brainstorming that goes along with that industry.
