Firm: DIANE ORAIF

Contested and uncontested divorces, offering "Legal Representation With Heart." I truly care about others, and will listen with compassion to your circumstances, and give you the attention you need to the best of my ability.. I have a deep compassion and understanding for those suffering from PTSD And trauma, and how it effects relationships. This is a result of my years working in Asylum/Refugee Law, including training on trauma through our organization, AILA.  Everyone will be treated with respect and compassion, regardless of "what side of the fence" you are on.. I will help you with your parenting time, parenting plans, and special concerns you may have for your family--whether it be concerns as to education (I understand home schooling) or allegations of physical or mental child abuse.. My philosophy is not to escalate the issues to increase attorney fees. I like to help my clients take the shortest path to get to their destination.  I understand how complicated and expensive it can get with Guardian ad Litem, therapeutic mediators, psyscologists, and multiple other professionals that can make your divorce and/or child custoday case nothing but a big headache.  Sometimes this is necessary, but in other instances the better route is to try to have a professional relationship with the other attorney, which is possible while still never losing sight of the fact that my client's interests, if reasonable,  outweigh relationships with other attorneys.. Every case I look at is screened for the potential for alimony (or palimony), even with current trends to do away with alimony or change the way it looks.. I am very understanding and realize we are not all rich, so I rely on the "Honor System" to set up a payment plan.. I am always open to alternative methods of contact with clients. I willingly communicate with Primate Messaging on Facebook, or even with text messages via cell phone, so that I can always be available to help you, especially when situations get stressful turning it into an emergency.. I also have experience with children in Juvenile Court, seeking dependency for Special Immigrant Juvenile Practice. I can take these cases from beginning to end, helping a child achieve legal permanent residency, which is often a more viable alternative than trying to get this status through adoption.

I am a resident of Tuscaloosa, Alabama.  I have lived here since 1982 when I first came from my hometown of Red Bay, Alabama, at the age of 18 to attend the University of Alabama.  I grew up on a farm where my father worked the fields and my mother worked alongside him.  Sweat and dirt are familiar to me and I appreciate the hard working client's that put their trust in me along with their hard earned money.  After obtaining my accounting and law degrees from the University of Alabama, I began a general practice of law in Tuscaloosa where I have continued to maintain a sole practice for the last 28 years.  I am experienced in a variety of cases.  My primary focus has been personal injury of all types.  I'm one of the few lawyers who will prosecute legal malpractice claims against other lawyers.  My other focus is criminal law where I have tried many jury cases for DUI, drugs, and violent criminal offenses.  Contested divorce matters and child custody litigation is also very familiar legal territory for me.  Basically, if you need a trial lawyer (someone who stands up in front of a jury or judge and advocates for you) for a legal matter I'm the guy you want.. I have great interest in science, nature and the enviroment.  I've traveled the world and I value the experience of travel in relating to people of different beliefs, interests, and backgrounds.  I enjoy photography and technology.  I have a great love of the ocean and using my skill in photography and technology to capture and share the unique places and creatures of the sea I encounter.  Scuba diving has been a part of my life since I was 18 and I relish the serenity and joy it brings me when I'm under the waves and exploring a beautiful reef or watching a giant shark move about the ocean.  I love animals and especially the unique and endangered creatures of our world.  I enjoy the technology of drones and photography with drones.  I have climbed volcanos, swam with Great White Sharks, walked with Komodo Dragons and wandered to the remotest of places in this world.  There are few things about a courtroom that could possibly intimidate me.. I am not a conventional lawyer, but, I am straight forward & honest about a situation, and if I represent you, determined to get you the best possible result in your legal case.

Firm: Michael J. Upton, Attorney at Law

I was born and raised in Flomaton, Alabama, a small town situated on the Florida line directly north of Pensacola.  After graduating high school in 1983, I attended Jefferson Davis Junior College, where I obtained an Associate's Degree, was inducted into Phi Theta Kappa honorary, and played on the baseball team.. In the fall of 1985, I enrolled at The University of Alabama.  I worked on the Alabama Football staff as a student equipment manager for three seasons before graduating with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Secondary Education.  I subsequently enrolled at The University of Alabama School of Law, where I obtained a Juris Doctor degree.. After practicing law in Tuscloosa for several years, I moved to Puerto Rico on a two year teaching contract, where I taught Jr. High English at Guamani Private School in Guyama.  I especially enjoyed the travel experiences in the Caribbean during that period of my life.. Upon returning to Tuscaloosa in 1998, I opened my own law office and have specialized in Criminal Defense and DUI Defense for almost 20 years.. My approach to practicing law has been always consistent: not only do I represent my clients, I also represent the legal system to the best of my abilities. I have always respected the importance of court procedures, the law (including our Constitution) and the importance of earning credibility with Judges, other attorneys, and court staff alike.. From 2001-2008, I served on the Board of Directors of the Alabama Criminal Defense Lawyers Association.  In 2010 was presented with the ACDLA President’s Award, and in 2014 received an ACDLA Merit Award. I have authored materials and have lectured at the ACDLA 4 Corners seminar. From 2004-2008, I was a member of the statewide planning committee for ABICLE’s yearly Criminal Defense Seminar. I was one of 75 attorneys initially named to represent indigent defendants in Federal Court as a member of the CJA Panel. I have also served on the Criminal Practice and Procedure Committee of the Tuscaloosa County Bar Association.. In 2016, I was a Candidate for Tuscaloosa County District Court Judge. Even though I didn’t win, I’m extremely proud and humbled that a small town guy who moved here for college in 1985, and didn’t know a soul, was able to garner 9,000 votes!. I am a Deacon at First Presbyterian Church and serve on the Board of Directors of the Red Elephant Club.  I previously served on the Board of Directors of Big Brothers/Big Sisters (was also a Big Brother), United Way, and Easter Seals, and am a donor to several charities including the RISE program, the Community Soup Bowl, and West Alabama Food Bank.. My wife Melanie and I have 7 children. Five are between the ages of 12 and 16: Drew, Harper, Zach, Anabelle & Ellie Reese, and our twin toddlers Foster & Finley were born July, 2015. We also have a lab, a german shepherd, and two cats that think they’re dogs.. In my spare time (which, I'll admit is rare...) I enjoy playing golf, watching Alabama Football and I like to cook, especially Southern food.
