OVR truck driver

Mr. Frank Ward is an extremely professional attorney. His knowledge of Alabama laws on DUIs are amazing. Mr. Ward went above and beyond to help me avoid a DUI. He kept in contract with me during the whole time. Always was available to me by phone and email. Frank is a dedicated, diligent and profess...ional attorney. I would highly recommend him. Thank you!!!

Free Consultation and Successful Dismissal

Mr. Frank Ward is an honest and sincere lawyer who I will entrust with any future needs. On calling to discuss a speeding ticket (21 over), he provided advice on how to personally approach the issue and have the ticket dismissed. He did so without requesting any compensation, and offered his services... if I had any problems. He is both professional and personable. I have great respect for Mr. Ward as he ensured that everything I needed was taken care of efficiently and effectively. I have no doubts that I recommend him.

Only 5 stars?

We contacted Mr. Ward after I received a DUI while driving through Alabama. These reviews are no joke and we checked all of them before contacting Frank. If there were more stars I would give them to him. Having to use an out of state attorney I thought would be tricky but he made everything as ea...sy as possible. I talked to him quite a few time by phone and then met him in person on my court date. He is very concerned for your well being as well as working hard to get the best outcome for your case. In the end, all my charges were dismissed and I can't thank him enough.

DUI arrest

Frank handled my case very professionally. He worked hard with the DA and judge to get me into the diversion program. Frank was always available to answer all my questions. He was truly concerned about me and the outcome of my arrest. I cannot thank him enough. I highly recommend Frank to anyone seek...ing legal help.

Stand-up guy

I contacted Frank Ward regarding a speeding ticket. He helped me handle it in the initial consultation. I offered to pay him for his time and he said he hadn't really done anything, so it was on the house. 10/10 would call again.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
