==Biography==
In 2016 Adam returned, having become a solicitor and soon got into a rivalry with his uncle Daniel Osbourne. Adam engageed in multiple dodgy dealings such as having his own car stolen to claim insurance and blackmailing Rosie and Sophie Webster so he could buy the garage owned by their father Kevin Webster. It was then Adam became a suspect in attacking Ken after Ken kicked him out of the area for his involvement in drug dealing. He kidnapped Daniel to make him confess. His suspicions were later proven true but Adam forgave Daniel after he had a drug overdose and they formed a close brotherly bond.
Adam started a law firm with Todd Grimshaw and showed some morality by blackmailing Collin Callen into signing the Kabin back to Rita Tanner as he'd exploited her brain tumour to get his hands on it. Adam developed a rivalry with Aidan Connor over the Underworld Factory as it had been previously owned by Mike. Adam plotted with Aidan's girlfriend Eva Price to gain the factory as she was faking pregnancy to get revenge on Aidan for his affair with Maria Connor. She later felt guilty and called it off. After Aidan's death Adam and Eva tried to have a relationship but it didn't work out.
Adam got into a relationship with Sarah Platt and tried to expose her ex Gary Windass for his crimes. Adam faced problems with Sarah when his ex Lydia who he had previously mistreated and cheated on with her trying to convince Sarah she and Adam were having an affair which worked partly thanks to his previous infidelity with his uncle Peter's wife Carla Connor. In the end Adam had an opportunity to send Lydia to prison but let her go out of guilt for past sins.
Adam was furious when Sarah had an affair with drug dealer Damon Hay but forgave her. He ended things when she lied that he was the father of her unborn child but still comforted her following her miscarriage.
