Excellent Lawyer

I would highly recommend this attorney. Unfortunately, I had to hire a divorce attorney and the divorce itself was painful; however Mr. Ingram made a difficult situation easier for me by being quick and efficient.

Ingram Law

Mr.Ingram assisted me with my divorce just recently and the first day I met him it felt as if I had known him for years. He was so caring and understanding. It wasn't one day that I called him and he didn't answer. He helped me understand everything that was going on with my case and got things done ...in a timely manner. He wasn't only my lawyer, he felt more of a friend to me. If you're looking for a great attorney, please don't look any further than Joseph Ingram . Thanks Mr.Ingram!

Attorney for Divorce

Mr Ingram Helped me with my divorce, after I searched for different attorneys in Birmingham. He is the most reliable attorney in town for divorce. He is the less expensive one and my divorce was really a quick process. I would recommend him to any one that needs help with divorce.

Great Divorce Attorney

Joseph Ingram with INGRAM LAW provided quality representation in my divorce case recently. He, unlike a lot of lawyers, did not try to “rob” me. His services were a value for my money. I was always able to get in touch with Joe or someone in his office. He promptly returned my phone calls, e-mails ...and messages. He even took my calls after hours. I was surprised when he answered the phone after 5:00! I was very pleased with his services in my divorce case and would highly recommend INGRAM LAW LLC to anyone else looking for a law firm that actually does work for, fight and care about their clients.

I am so happy with my lawyer, Joseph Ingram! He represented me in my divorce a few years ago. Joe Ingram is a highly skilled attorney who was able to get my Alimony increased AND my child support increased. He is very friendly in person and represented me very aggressively and did not compromise.... I felt like all my needs were met and my voice was finally heard. I will always use Joseph Ingram with INGRAM LAW LLC in the future for my family law needs. He is one of the few lawyers in Birmingham that specializes in family law. Thank you Mr. Ingram!

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
