It's just not their job.

New "joint account" fear unlocked.

It’s not their job. Consider the perils of the joint account.

You can revoke a will in about a thousand ways -- but not the one way you'd think you can.

The law, man. It's weird.

There are several creative ways to revoke a will. But you may be surprised by one way you can’t.

70 years ago yesterday - December 1, 1955 - Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a Montgomery bus, and the civil rights movement was born.

Her attorney? A fresh-out-of-law-school, first-year lawyer named Fred Gray.

Attorney Gray would go on to represent Martin Luther King, Jr, the victims of the shameful Tuskegee syphillis study, and Wendell Gunn, the first Black student at the University of North Alabama.

Now nearing his 95th birthday, Fred Gray is living history. He's the best of us -- our profession, our state (he's Alabamian), our country.

On Friday at Florence's Renaissance Shoals Resort, Singing River Law is proud to attend and support the Alabama Legacy Luncheon: A Conversation on Advancing Justice, honoring Attorney Fred Gray on the occasion of his 95th birthday and raising money for the Fred D. Gray Institute for Human and Civil Rights.

The Institute promotes fair voting policies, educational opportunity, and health care access for all Americans.

What a hero, a living legend, a legacy. Thank you, Attorney Gray.

Whether there’s a will or not, there may still be a way.

An article about the oft-overlooked oral trust recognized by Alabama law. A payable-on-death designation to someone other than the intended recipient of the money in the account is not the death knell to an expected inheritance. Don't overlook the possibility of an oral trust.
