Posted by Bernadine | December 05, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

A fantastic lawyer during a difficult time.

I need to sing Mr. Sheffield's praises because he is a fantastic attorney, especially for women going through a difficult divorce. He listened to me and was able to asses the situation fairly and fight for me, even when I was too overwhelmed to stand up for myself. He explained things well and helped... me understand the process of divorce. He treated me with respect and kindness. His personality was perfect for helping me stand up for myself in a difficult situation. I chose him after visiting with several attornies because he seemed like he would fight for me. And he did.

child custody/child support

Mr. Sheffield is a wonderful attorney to have and I would reccomend him to absolutely anyone! He handled my case for me in a matter of less than two weeks and started THE DAY I ASKED! He has kept me inform on my legal matters going on in Alabama and represented me in court while I was busy in another... state. This legal practice is definitely one of he better I have ever came across and I'd use him again in a heartbeat!
