Questions we hear every day
+What should I expect in a divorce case?
Most Alabama divorces begin with filing a complaint, followed by an exchange of financial information and negotiations on property, support, and custody. Many cases settle through agreement or mediation. If not, a judge decides at trial. We'll walk you through each step so nothing catches you off guard.
+What is white collar crime?
It's a broad term for non-violent offenses usually involving money or business — for example fraud, embezzlement, bribery, tax offenses, or public corruption. These cases are often investigated for months before anyone is charged, so getting advice early matters.
+An FBI agent called me. What should I do?
Stay calm and be polite, but you are not required to answer questions on the spot. Take the agent's name and number and call a lawyer before you talk. Anything you say can be used later.
+How much does a first consultation cost?
Call our office and we'll explain our consultation process and fees up front. We believe you should know what to expect before you commit to anything.
+Do I need a lawyer to run for office?
Not necessarily, but campaign finance and ethics rules are detailed. A short consultation early on can help you avoid costly mistakes.
+Is what I tell you confidential?
Yes. Conversations with an attorney for the purpose of getting legal advice are generally protected by attorney-client privilege, even during an initial consultation.
Let's talk about what you're facing.
A confidential conversation is the first step. We'll listen, then explain your options in plain English.
