- DUI/DWIWhile there are over 5,000,000 car accidents in the U.S. every year, there is something devastating about being involved in an alcohol-related crash. With national anti-drinking and driving campaigns promoted nationwide by government agencies and Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD), drunk driving demonstrates the highest level of driver negligence.

- Sex CrimesOver the years our firm has handled hundreds of criminal cases ranging from harassment and DUI to rape and capital murder. Over the last several years, we obtained a not guilty verdict for our client who was charged with rape. The allegations were made by his 35 year old adopted daughter, who claimed to remember being sexually assaulted when she was 15, by our client. She "remembered" this after her adoptive mother found out that our client was selling some land he had obtained in a divorce settlement between him and the alleged victim's adopted mother.
- MurderAs a further example of our work in criminal cases, recently, we settled a criminal case favorably to our client, who was charged with murder for shooting a man with a pistol three times. The defense in the case was self defense. Just before trial, the case was settled with a plea to criminally negligent homicide and a sentence of 18 months in the county jail. Our client was very satisfied.

- Wrongful TerminationOur firm has for the past several years represented the City of Phenix City in various cases and particularly in cases involving claims of wrongful termination of employees and/or discriminatory treatment.
