Positive experience. Ours was a driving citation received in Alabama. We are out of state so we had to pick a strong lawyer and we're glad we picked Mr Bodiford. My spouse received a reckless driving citation which was according to him, a little excessive. He is highly experienced (you can tell immediately), is direct and has a clear solution framed up after hearing the details of your case. Our result was favorable and I owe this to the diligence of his secretary, his knowledge of the system and professionalism. I absolutely recommend him for your needs.

Mr. James Bodiford was enlisted as my councilor based on a recommendation from an acquaintance. Mr. Bodiford made the Divorce process very simple and easy to understand. He is very knowledgeable in the Divorce process. He is a very caring individual and took a very sincere interest in my case. He guided me through the entire process, he made it easy on my part, put my mind at ease during a very trying time in my life. He has a penchant for helping someone through the divorce process. I am very happy with the service he performed during both before and during the actual Court Hearing's. I would highly recommend his services for anyone needing a great, conscientious Lawyer/Councilor/ Friend. Mr. Bodiford and his Office Help, Ms. Wynette, performed a grueling service very satisfactory for me.

Will not fight for you and doesnt care about fathers rights. If your a father with credible evidence do not waste your money on this person.

Your case is still pending, this was only a temporary custody/visitation hearing. I had a very good settlement worked out on your case, however, you refused any agreement at all. Your constant aggressive body language in front of the Judge and constant verbal mumbling during Court hurt your case immensely. It was not the lawyer, it was you.

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.
