Bradley Arant Boult Cummings LLP Innovative Solutions. Dependable Responsiveness. Deep Commitment to Success.

Founded over 150 years ago, Bradley’s Birmingham office retains the tradition of Southern hospitality even as the firm has grown into a global legal force. Bradley’s first and largest office was founded in 1870 in Elyton, Alabama, before eventually moving to the newly established city of Birmingham in 1871. Home to a number of legal trailblazers, the firm’s ranks have included founding partner Joh

n P. Tillman, who served as the first president of the Birmingham Bar Association in 1885 and as president of the Alabama Bar Association from 1897 to 1898, and Ellene Winn, who in 1958 became one of the first female partners in a major law firm in the Southeast. The Birmingham office currently supports more than 100 charitable organizations across central Alabama. In 2022, the office launched the Black Small Business and Nonprofit Community Clinic, a joint project of Bradley and Legal Services Alabama (LSA), to provide accessible and affordable business-oriented legal services to local Black small businesses and nonprofits across the Magic City.

Bradley’s 2026 Summer Associate Program has flown by, and it’s hard to believe it’s almost over! Here’s another look at some of the experiences that have been part of the summer so far.

In Atlanta, summer associates visited the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. In Birmingham, they took part in a speed networking session, connecting with attorneys from our Real Estate and Banking & Financial Services Practice Groups. The summer has also included time outside the office, with the Lawyers of Color Resource Group hosting a dumpling-making class at Jones Valley Teaching Farm in Birmingham and an outing in Nashville to cheer on Nashville SC in its match against CF Montréal.

Bradley is proud to support Conexion Americas and its annual backpack distribution initiative, which helps provide local students and families in the Nashville community with backpacks and essential school supplies as they prepare for the upcoming school year. The organization's goal is to distribute 500 backpacks filled with supplies to students across the community.

Through the efforts of the firm's Lawyers of Color Resource Group (LOCRG), attorneys and staff have come together to donate supplies and volunteer their time assembling backpacks for distribution. This hands-on service opportunity reflects our ongoing commitment to supporting education, strengthening our communities, and helping students start the school year ready to learn.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to this meaningful initiative and to Conexión Américas for the important work they do for Nashville families.
