We used Laura my step daughters custody case and were more than happy with the results. As a dad, my husband didn’t think he had a chance of changing his custodial agreement, but laura was able to get custody switched in our favor.

Laura is THE BEST when it comes to catching someone in a lie. She is very smart and knowledgeable about every aspect of a divorce. She has always been brutally honest with me and ALWAYS gave me 110% on my case. She wasn't cheap but she earned and deserved every dollar I paid her because at the end of the divorce she saved me over $350,000.00 just on the settlement. I am forever grateful for her services and I will always highly recommend anyone who ask me to use her for their attorney. She is not just in it for the money. She genuinely cares about her clients and goes to bat for them in every way possible. She will always have my business if I ever need a attorney. She is also very good with negotiating and giving great and accurate advise on what to do. If you like being on the winning team then she is definitely the person you need on your side. I would definitely not want to go against her in court. She knows all the tricks and which buttons to push to bring home the win.

Ms. Powell is a phenomenal attorney! I had peace of mind every day knowing that she was going the extra mile to make sure I was being represented with the upmost importance. She went above and beyond to win my case and kept me updated with details of the case every step of the way. She has become “the lawyer to get” in north Alabama. I would recommend her with rock solid confidence to anyone needing an attorney that can win their case without question. I can’t say enough good things about Ms. Powell.

Ms. Powell handled a child custody case for me. She was wonderful. She was very responsive and communicated effectively throughout. She was very quick to respond as she understood how some situations and questions may be time sensitive in difficult situations. She was very knowledgeable in my case and with the law, making me feel confident and reassured.

Laura Terry Powell is an exceptional lawyer. She won my case and got me joint custody of my kids. In such a time of uncertainty and grief I had peace of mind because I had Laura as my lawyer. She is incredibly passionate about her job. I HIGHLY recommend her!

Laura Powell took over court appointed case of a friend of mine 2 years into. She immediately went to work on filing motions to get this done. After many delays by the Prosecution she finally got her day in court. Because of her belief in her client's innocence, she stuck with her and never wavered. After 3 and 1/2 long years, my friend has her life back because of the successful defense from Laura Powell as her court appointed attorney.

I have used Mrs Powell for the last 6 years with a child custody case. Mrs Powell has always been very helpful and very prompt with getting back to me with any questions that I may have had. She is very knowledgeable and very professional . I would highly recommend Mrs Powell for an attorney.
