Ginger helped us in a great time of need for my daughter who lived in California with her mother. My daughter expressed to me that she wanted to live here in Alabama just before going back from her summer visit. I was able to see Ginger last minute just before my daughter had to leave. She heard our ...case and explained to us that it would be very difficult to modify custody both due to the circumstance of our case and to the law in Alabama. ButGinger believed in us and took the case knowing it would be difficult, and boy was it difficult. After more than a year of preparation and a reset for our hearing we finally had our day in court. She was masterful in her approach to the case and represented me better than I could have ever hoped for. At the end of the day, we weren't sure if it was enough to win custody of my daughter. Well, not only was it enough to win, the judgement was made on a Sunday which allowed me to pick up my daughter and have her ready to start school and a bertter life here in Alabama. I never imaginged after the divorce that I could ever have custody of my daughter and it was always a seemingly impossible dream that it would happen one day. When she asked me if she could stay and live with me, I had no choice but to fight for my daughter to give her the life she needs and deserves. Since the day I met Ginger, my fight became hers. She was not just my attorney or an advocate for my daughter and the rest of my family, she became part of my family and will be forever loved and remembered as such in my and in my family's hearts. I am forever in her debt and believe that no one else could have done what she did with what we had, and I cannot recommend her enough to anyone looking for the best in representation for family law. Thank you, Ginger from the bottom of my heart!

Just a big thank you and a feeling of great relief knowing that my criminal case was dismissed after serious consideration and a great deal of thought and effort was put into whether or not it was to continue the Grand Jury or to be dismissed... Ginger did an exceptional and amazing job as counselor ...representing me against the State of Alabama. She took time and care personally, in guiding and walking me through the steps as the wheels of justice rolled throughout these last three months; questioning all that the State thought that they had against me in regards to my criminal charge. -Thank you Ginger

As an attorney, I appreciate good lawyering. When I needed legal counsel, I made one phone call. Ms. Poynter was able to work me into her schedule quickly, and took the time to allow me a thorough, non-hurried consultation. After listening, really listening, to the problem, she provided me with kn...owledgeable advice, and she recommended what steps to take next. With the situation concluded, I can say that the entire process went more smoothly thanks to Ms. Poynter's assistance and counsel. Her advice proved to be spot-on. Almost as importantly, Ms. Poynter was able to help put my mind at ease when it was my time to be the client instead of the lawyer. I would recommend Ms. Poynter without hesitation.

I had unsuccessfully tried to probate my adult daughter into mental health care for over a decade when she was arrested and accused of a serious crime that would had put her in prison for many years. Upon our first visit I was impressed with Ms. Poynter's ability to gain the trust of my paranoid... daughter. Ms. Poynter was genuinely concerned and knew immediately that my daughter needed mental help. My daughter became calm and cooperative due to this trust. She swiftly guided me to Probate court and my daughter was committed to the hospital. Ms. Poynter was thorough and methodical. She made affective use of her legal and medical contacts. Because of Ginger Poynter's work on my daughters case, my daughter is on her way to becoming a more independent and functioning member of society .And we thank her.
