Tuscaloosa Criminal Defense Law Firm
Overview
Since 1974, Joel L. Sogol, Attorney at Law, has been synonymous with success. My law office in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, represents clients in criminal defense and personal injury cases. I am a fierce advocate for people throughout the process, from steering them through investigations to protecting their rights in the courtroom. My litigation experience includes arguing before state and federal courts.
Having decades of practice translates to aggressive work in trial. I excel in examining and cross-examining witnesses, and I have solid relationships in the local legal community and consistently present sound arguments to juries.
My law office has a proven track record of taking clients from their current circumstances and leading them into a brighter future. I genuinely care about the people I represent. While there are not any guarantees in outcomes, what I can promise is my commitment to stand by my client's side and provide the support and guidance necessary to navigate the issues.
Joel L. Sogol, Attorney at Law, is a place where clients come first. My law office provides appointments on the weekends. Additionally, for personal injury cases, I operate on a contingency fee basis. That means that I do not collect a fee unless I win the case.
