Practice Area Overview
Experienced lawyers in Shelby County
At Pino Law Firm P.C. in Shelby County, Alabama, we focus on the following areas of practice:
We provide our clients with experienced representation in all aspects of divorce and family law, including child custody and visitation, child support, alimony, paternity, relocation, adoption, prenuptial agreements, enforcement, and modifications.
Whether you need to establish a child custody/visitation schedule or seek to modify an order based on changing circumstances, we can help. The child’s best interests are paramount to the courts and to us. When the parties are in agreement, we can help craft a detailed, comprehensive joint custody agreement.
While Alabama has uniform child support guidelines, there is room for deviation based on debts, joint custody, and moves out of state. At Pino Law Firm P.C., we assist clients with obtaining a fair amount of child support and with seeking modifications as needed. Child support can also be modified when there is a substantial change in circumstances, such as a significant change in income, serious health issues or a special needs child.
Your rights must be protected when you have been arrested. The criminal defense lawyers at Jim Pino & Associates experience and their knowledge of criminal law make them a powerful advocate for people charged with a crime.

Parents and grandparents also have rights arising out of custody disputes, paternity issues, and dependency cases.
