Po Box 729 , Smiths , Alabama 36877
Practice Areas: Estate Planning, Bankruptcy & Debt, Bankruptcy & Debt
I graduated from Opelika High School in 1970 and enlisted in the Air Force Reserve that Summer. I attended Auburn University from 1970 through 1973 where I studied philosophy and communications.. I graduated from Troy State University in 1989 with honors, earning a double major in psychology and human services. In 1993, I received a Juris Doctor Degree from Jones School of Law, and I have been licensed to practice law in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Alabama and in all Alabama Courts. For almost 20 years I have been practicing law in Smiths Station, Alabama, serving clients in Lee, Russell and surrounding Counties in various areas of law.. For the past 19 years, my practice has become more concentrated in bankruptcy as a result of the severe, economic downturn in this area, and because of my deep interest in helping people when they can no longer help themselves and they have nowhere to turn. My practice has been as much a ministry as it has been a legal career, and I would not want it to be any other way.

He has recovered several six-figure judgments or settlements for various creditors.

He routinely counsels large and small banks concerning workouts and loan restructuring and advises creditors in bankruptcy cases regarding preference actions, administrative expenses, executory contracts, and the automatic stay. He has handled a multi-million dollar “stalking horse” asset purchase of a debtor trucking company which helped the new entity obtain the assets free and clear from creditors. He has worked on various unsecured creditor committees and was involved in a Chapter 9 municipality bankruptcy, one of few in the state of Alabama. Mr. Watkins frequently counsels businesses who may need to restructure debt to stay in business..

We know that financial problems can create tremendous stress. If you need help, please call us at.. My primary focus in practicing law has always been to encourage those that are burdened and stressed that there are good answers available to help them move ahead into a great new future. One of the most rewarding parts of my career with Bond & Botes is the fact that we have been able to help so many people get back to living within their means and get relief from the stress of facing creditors and collectors every day. It is rare that I leave the office without having heard the words from at least a few people throughout the day, “Thank you so much! I feel like I can not only breathe but I’ll finally be able to sleep tonight!”. I started practicing law in 1991 and joined Bond & Botes law firm in January 1992 as the first associate attorney. I became a shareholder in the Birmingham office in 1993 and am a shareholder in several other offices in Alabama and Mississippi. I was the past Chair of the Commercial and Bankruptcy Law Section of the Birmingham Bar Association and have served on the Ethics committee of the Birmingham Bar Association.. I am very involved in church and ministry including speaking at conferences and sharing God's word to lift up others and give them hope. I am a Grace Life Counselor and a Co-Host on the talk show of A Real View of the Grace Life. I am a contributing author in a devotional series called Bullseye among other devotional series. I have written dramatic and comedy skits and performed in local theatrical productions. I am currently serving on different ministry arts production teams in the Birmingham area.. I am currently married to a wonderful man and have an amazing son! We love Alabama Football (all college football) as both of them played football at The University of Alabama. I love decorating, consignment stores, hanging out with my friends and mostly being at home with my husband and family...and our pets!. My favorite restaurant is Real & Rosemary. The first location opened in Homewood, AL. Of course, I might have some bias as my son and his girlfriend co-own the restaurant. Also, being the huge coffee fanatic that I am, I am a gigantic fan of their coffee shop, Caveat Coffee also located in Homewood, AL. Can’t get enough of the amazing “clean” food at Real & Rosemary and Caveat is the only place I know of that offers coffee latte on tap!! Yum!!!

He attended undergrad at Birmingham-Southern College and then bartended at a local restaurant for a year before attending Cumberland School of Law.

After leaving Chicago, Grafton moved back to Birmingham and joined Bond & Botes in July 2018..
