I was born into a military family and have lived in a variety of locations including Indiana, Texas, Germany and Alabama. A graduate of Carroll High School in Ozark, I attended Troy University graduating cum laude with a B.A. in Criminal Justice with a minor in Spanish. In 2013 I graduated with a Juris Doctorate from Thomas Goode Jones School of Law at Faulkner University. During my time in law school, I served as Vice President of Faulkner Law’s chapter of the Alabama Criminal Defense Lawyers Association as well as the Vice President of Faulkner Law’s chapter of the American Constitution Society. My passion for the rights of all led me to become an active member of the Jones Public Interest Law Foundation and the Women’s Legal Society. Upon graduation from law school and due to my volunteer work in the legal community. I was admitted into the Thomas Goode Jones Public Interest Law Society and granted the Pro Bono Merit and Ellen Brooks Merit awards.
I began my law practice at a family law firm in Indiana. In 2014, I moved to Mobile and joined a local law firm here allowing me to expand my practice in Mobile to include family law, small claims/collection cases, municipal criminal cases, and some minor criminal matters in District Court. As a member of the Alabama State Bar and Indiana State Bar, I am admitted to practice in all Alabama and Indiana State Courts, and my focus has been on family law, criminal law, and collections.
In 2016, I joined the Hernandez & Associates Law Firm allowing me to expand my practice even further to areas that include criminal matters in both district and circuit court as well as Federal Court. I have handled countless felony matters including Robbery, Murder, and Capital Murder.
I am a passionate and hard-working attorney, and here at Hernandez & Associates Law Firm we believe that every person is entitled to passionate representation and to have their civil and constitutional rights vigorously protected and defended. We are a team of lawyers and we fight to equalize the playing field in the court room and during the legal process.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level
- - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials
- - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost
- - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City
- - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
