Montgomery Criminal Defense Lawyer

John Charles is one of the premier Defense Attorneys at Anderson Law. He is an expert at DUI defense!

Sometimes good people find themselves in a bad situation.

Do you know someone who was in the wrong place at the wrong time? Was your business set up, a patsy in a business transaction with the wrong people? Did a member of your family simply make a bad mistake? Do you know someone who broke the law when they felt they had no alternative? Sometimes good people find themselves in a bad situation.

Any person under investigation, indicted, or charged with a crime risks devastating consequences if not defended by a skilled and knowledgeable attorney. If you are concerned about criminal charges, against yourself or someone you care about, contact our offices in Montgomery and ask to speak with an attorney.

At Anderson Law Firm, L.L.C., our Alabama criminal defense lawyers have represented clients facing charges as common as drug possession, as complex as fraud, as politically sensitive as police brutality, and as serious as murder. We form a powerful defense team – several of our attorneys are former prosecutors, and Charles Anderson is a twenty-year veteran litigator. We are fully equipped to try cases in all Alabama state and federal trial and appellate courts.

Our active representation begins in the pre-trial period. In cases, for instance, of non-violent drug crimes, we may be able to arrange for pre-trial diversion into Drug Court or rehabilitation programs.

During trial, we present a compelling case on behalf of our client. We have attorneys that are experienced in criminal trials as both prosecutors and defense attorneys.

In the critical post-conviction sentencing phase we work with the court to get our clients help and rehabilitation, not just punishment. In some cases, we have been able to arrange for suspended sentences, or the most favorable sentencing possible.

Problem-Solving & Client-Committed Car Accident Attorneys in Alabama

If you have been the victim of an accident caused by someone else — and you suffered serious or catastrophic personal injury such as a head injury or paralysis resulting from an accident — you may be entitled to compensation for your medical expenses, lost wages, repair or replacement of your motor vehicle, temporary or permanent disability, and pain and suffering.

Sadly, your insurance company may take advantage of your situation, and may either deny your claim for compensation or respond with an unrealistically low settlement offer.

The Montgomery personal injury and wrongful death lawyers of the Anderson Law Firm, L.L.C., hold negligent parties and their insurers accountable — in a court of law if necessary.

Anderson Law’s personal injury attorneys will review your medical records and the facts surrounding your accident, skillfully negotiate with your insurance company and assess its response. You can benefit from our reputation for innovative, effective legal counsel, exceptional service and professionalism throughout the legal process.

If the claim is denied or the settlement offer is not fair, we will aggressively seek recovery on your behalf. This doesn’t have to mean a lawsuit; we can represent you in negotiations or alternative dispute resolution. If the insurance company does not cooperate, however, we will not hesitate to go to trial. We know where the courthouse is.

Our lawyers have the skill, experience and knowledge of Alabama law to present a strong case on your behalf. Contact us. Call today, toll free: 800-518-1847.

Our firm’s personal injury clients suffer from injuries resulting from a wide variety of accidents, including car accidents, truck accidents, drunk driving accidents, serious injury accidents, those involving defective products (products liability), slip-and-falls on poorly maintained premises, nursing home abuse and neglect, and workplace injuries. If you have been injured in an accident that should not have happened, we may be able to help you recover damages.

If you have been injured in an Alabama auto accident, claims for your expenses may involve more than one insurance company. We will help you identify the parties responsible for your expenses, file a third-party claim or underinsured motorist claim or uninsured motorist claim if appropriate, and negotiate for fair compensation for the injuries you suffered in the truck or car wreck.

If your loved one’s fatal injuries could be construed as a case of wrongful death, we are here to advocate for you while remaining sensitive to your emotions at a difficult time in your life.

BANKRUPTCY

Montgomery Bankruptcy Lawyer

Alabama Debt Relief Attorneys Guide You to the ‘Fresh Start’ You Deserve

Proverbs 31: 8-9
Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute.
Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.

Due to personal misfortune, an employer’s financial problems or the continuing national recession, many hardworking people with good intentions are sometimes unable to pay their bills. Accumulating debt can lead to foreclosure threats on your home, repossession of your motor vehicle, garnishment of wages and harassment by creditors.

If you have been laid off or unable to work because of illness, you may be unable to make mortgage payments. If you have been suddenly injured or ill, or your family has put a child through drug rehabilitation, you are facing extraordinarily high medical bills. If your family business has run into trouble, business bill collectors may be calling you. An expensive divorce can also cause significant financial burden.

The good news is this: federal bankruptcy laws may provide you with relief and allow you to get back on your feet. Once you have filed for Chapter 7 liquidation or Chapter 13 reorganization bankruptcy, creditors are stopped from bill collection harassment, from suing you, from foreclosing on your home mortgage, from garnishing your wages and from making unwelcome phone calls to your home or office.

At the Anderson Law Firm, L.L.C., in Montgomery, our experienced Alabama bankruptcy lawyers are well versed in the execution and discharge of Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 filings, and up-to-date on recent changes in federal bankruptcy law.

If you are frightened by the prospect of home foreclosure, want to end the creditor harassment you are receiving and seek innovative, effective legal counsel on eliminating or reorganizing your debt, contact our Montgomery offices and ask to speak with a bankruptcy attorney.

Most common debts that can be discharged through bankruptcy are:

• Back rent
• Utility rent
• Some court judgments
• Credit card bills
• Department store and gasoline company bills
• Loans from family and friends
• Newspaper and magazine subscriptions
• Legal, medical and accounting bills
• Unsecured loans

Debts that cannot be eliminated through bankruptcy include:

• Taxes
• Alimony and spousal support
• Child support
• Student loans
• Secured debts
• Personal injury damages arising from driving while drunk
• Debts from fraud, larceny or embezzlement
• Punitive damage claims for assault and libel
