Save your money and time.

I deeply regret hiring him. I ignored a warning in a previous client review, and I now wish I had taken it seriously. He showed little interest in truly defending my case and seemed more focused on pushing plea deals for convenience, regardless of my innocence or desire to fight the charges. Despit...e providing substantial evidence, he never took the time to understand my story. Save your money and look elsewhere for genuine legal representation.

Andrew Segal

Mr. Segal got 4 charges dismissed on my behalf. They included: Attempting to Flee and Elude, Reckless Driving, Driving While License Suspended, and No Tag. He is an excellent negotiator and he works for his clients. Mr. Segal is extremely fair with his rates and his demeanor is very straight forward.... He is honest and tells you the range of expected outcomes based on numerous years as a cop, lawyer, judge, and prosecutor. I would recommend him and his law firm without an hesitation and with no doubt that he will exceed any expectations you have on an outcome. Hands down the best criminal defense attorney in Alabama. Hire him!!!

Very wonderful and effective lawyer.

Mr. Segal was a very fast and efficient lawyer. I would have never expected things to move so fast (in a positive way). I was with a appointed lawyer for nearly a year and a half and nothing was done. The DAY that Mr. Segal was hired he already had the ball rolling for a program of recovery with poss...ibility of never being sentenced. I would recommend him to anyone that needs true and proper legal counsel.

Highly Recommend Attorney Segal

Attorney Segal was excellent. My son was falsely accused, and I was scared to death for him. Segal was honest, upfront, and on top of everything. He ALWAYS returned my calls promptly and answered all of my questions and concerns. He made sure my son was represented and that the investigator heard tr...uth. As such, my son was never charged and this will never go on his record. I highly recommend Segal to defend your rights.

Mr. Segal is the best lawyer in my opinion in Huntsville, Alabama. I would recommend him to anyone that is needing a lawyer.

I had court today and was so scared. I was facing jail time for breaking my probation. Mr. Segal was awesome. Although, we are scheduled back to court in a week, due to circumstances out of his control, I did not go to jail. Mr. Segal is straight forward and didn't sugar coat anything with me. Howeve...r, he did his job and I couldn't thank him enough for keeping me out of jail and explaining to the Judge my circumstances. Mr. Segal, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Words will never be enough to thank him for everything he has done for me.

  • 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.
