Guntersville Family Law Attorneys
When your family is facing change, uncertainty, or conflict, you need more than just legal paperwork — you need an advocate who understands what’s at stake. At Guntersville Law, LLC, our attorneys represent families across Marshall County and throughout North Alabama with compassion, honesty, and decades of combined courtroom experience.
We know that family-law cases are among the most emotional legal matters a person can face. They involve your children, your home, your livelihood, and your sense of security. Our role is to provide stability in that storm — to listen carefully, explain the process clearly, and take decisive action that protects your rights and your future.
Whether you are preparing for divorce, trying to establish or modify child custody, adjusting child support, defending your family in a DHR or CPS investigation, or completing an adoption, we bring both legal knowledge and practical insight to every case. We guide clients through every step of the process, from filing and negotiation to mediation and trial when necessary.
Our Alabama Family-Law Services
Our firm provides comprehensive representation in all areas of family law, including:
Divorce and Legal Separation – We handle uncontested, contested, and high-asset divorces, including property division, spousal support, and parenting arrangements. We help clients pursue fair settlements while minimizing stress and unnecessary conflict.
Child Custody and Visitation – We advocate for parents seeking joint or primary custody, create detailed parenting plans, and represent clients in modification and enforcement actions.
Child Support and Modifications – We ensure that child-support orders are calculated fairly, enforce payment through court orders when necessary, and request modifications when income or custody changes occur.
DHR Defense and CPS Investigations – If the Department of Human Resources contacts you, we step in immediately to protect your parental rights. We attend interviews, negotiate safety plans, and defend you in juvenile or dependency court proceedings.
Adoption, Guardianship, and Paternity – We assist with stepparent and private adoptions, legal guardianship for minors, and paternity establishment for fathers seeking rights or clarity in support obligations.
Why Local Experience Matters
Family-law cases are handled differently in every county. Because we live and work here, our team knows the expectations and procedures of the Marshall County Courthouse, the local judges, and DHR investigators. This knowledge allows us to prepare cases strategically, anticipate potential issues, and craft solutions that work in your specific community.
Our firm also emphasizes communication. You will have direct access to your attorney — not a call center or case manager. We return calls promptly, provide plain-English updates, and make sure you always understand where your case stands.

At Guntersville Law, we believe in combining legal precision with compassion. We take the time to understand your story, your goals, and your values before we recommend a course of action. Our attorneys will tell you the truth about your case — even when it’s difficult — so that you can make informed decisions about your future.
When you work with us, you’re not just hiring a law firm; you’re gaining a team that cares about your outcome. We fight for your family as if it were our own.
