Our Services

 
 

Landlord-Tenant Law

Our landlord-tenant law practice provides legal services for both residential and commercial landlords. Depending on the client scenario, our legal approach may include a combination of traditional and contemporary strategies including litigation and eviction.

We are pleased to be among the leaders in our industry providing contemporary legal technology to make the eviction process more client-friendly. By partnering with the top provider in modern digital eviction processing, we manage client cases with the Nationwide Compliant Network's SmartEviction system.

The secure, cloud-based platform is a paperless, online portfolio manager that allows us--and our clients--to submit, track, and update case filings without additional trips to court, making the eviction process more efficient and less costly. With Nationwide, our practice is equipped to handle evictions anywhere in the state of Alabama.

 
 
 

Animal Law

Our animal law practice focuses on the welfare of pets and other animals, and the humans who care about them. We are proud to be one of the first law firms in Alabama to offer services designed specifically to address the legal needs of pet owners.

If you're anything like us, your pets are more than just furry alarm systems that take up most of the bed -- they're members of your family. As part of your family, your pet depends on you coming home each day to share in a remarkable bond that forms through the comfort, affection, and joy of animal-human companionship.

No one knows you quite like your pet. And no one knows your pet the way you do.

By providing for your pet through a trust, you ensure that your love will always be there for your pet -- even if you're not. Together with our clients and their animals, our collaborative legal approach prioritizes the wellness and needs of both pet and owner, now, and in the future.

A developing area of practice in the legal profession, animal law is centered around situations in which statutory, regulatory, and case law might affect a pet, wildlife, livestock, or any other animal in a significant way.

The animal law practice may include both civil and criminal law. Frequently, the animal's well-being is central to the case; however, our animal law practice may also include scenarios where an animal's or pet's welfare is not directly at stake, but where the central issue or subject matter in the case is related to animal interests.

We represent clients in a range of animal law scenarios, including those listed. If you would like to discuss legal action in an area of our practice or have questions about animal law, please contact us.
