Atty. Mr. Stephen Andrew Strickland, Birmingham, Jefferson County, Alabama, USA


Summary

I have over twenty-four (24) years of extensive experience in the areas of civil and criminal law in Alabama?s state and federal courts at both the trial and appellate levels. Specializing in both civil and criminal cases has given me a unique advantage over most attorneys because I have learned techniques that are applicable to both disciplines of the law. For most of my legal career, I have had a BV Rating from Martindale-Hubbell peer review rating. My practice areas have been criminal defense, state and federal appellate practice, particularly with an emphasis on death penalty cases, sexual harassment, employment discrimination and retaliation, wrongful death, personal injuries, and malicious prosecution. In Alabama, five Death Row inmates have been exonerated. I successfully represented Wesley Quick, the 5th exoneree, on his appeal. I also worked with Barry Scheck and Nina Morrison from The Innocence Project to obtain the release of an Alabama inmate through DNA evidence.

Fees

  • Free Consultation
  • Credit Cards Accepted
    Visa MasterCard
  • Contingent Fees
    I take civil cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning that you do not pay me a fee unless and until I recover for you.
  • Rates, Retainers and Additional Information
    I take criminal cases on either an hourly or flat fee basis. It has been my experience that the best payment option is usually to set a fee because I often put more work into your case then I would have been compensated for if I had charged by the hour. For criminal cases, I require a retainer (down payment), and I will work out a payment plan with you. I also accept Visa and MasterCard.
