Shelnutt and Varner Law Firm

Where do I begin? I had a car accident on October 5th, 2022 due to a negligent truck driver. This accident not only almost took my life, it left me paralyzed from the chest down. I was in the hospital for 3 months. During that time, I was assigned a lawyer prior to them while on the ventilator. This particular lawyer accomplished nothing between that time I was under and coming to. I never even met the individual. Time was never taken to talk to me, to meet me or my family. The only thing I'm grateful for with that particular lawyer is that it led me to Mr. Shelnutt (nothing is a coincidence). I spoke with Mr. Shelnutt, and the next day, he and Mrs. Kristi Bane, who is also wonderful, were visiting me at UAB to get things going. I was educated on things that I had no idea was even needed for my lawsuit. Had they not shown up when they did, key information wouldn't have been included because of the previous lawyers incompetence. Working with them didn't feel like "just business". I truly felt like family. Shelnutt is a busy man, and he made the time to check on me and my family during such a tragic time. Lawsuits like this take time, but the transition through that situation was very smooth. I never felt like I was out of the loop. I was updated frequently up to the mediation and beyond that. Shelnutt fought for me. There is so much to think about financially after you have a car accident. Caregivers, doctors visits, medical supplies, etc. I left the mediation feeling comfortable financially (as well as educated) with my future. Although my life changed drastically in one of the worst ways that year, Shelnutt changed my life in one of the best ways possible. People come and go into your life. I truly enjoyed our season together! I'm forever grateful. You all will always be family. Peace and love.

I am so grateful we chose this law firm to represent us. Savannah Long is absolutely wonderful. We came to her in a scary situation, and she gave us reassurance. She was there with us every step of the way. She is very quick to get back with you and is amazing in the court room. Thank you so much for fighting for us! So happy with our results!

I have used them over the years and they are experts across the board in the scope of legal representation needed. Jami Shelnutt is assertive and responsive to work diligently on each individual case. I am confident in her knowledge and driven work ethic.

I initially hired one of the billboard lawyers who's always on TV they try to get me to take chump change. I switched lawyers and hired Shelnutt and Varner law firm and they got me a seven figure result. Don't call the "call me Alabama" firm but DO call James and Jami Shelnutt! These guys are awesome!! There's not any better lawyers than James and Jami Shelnutt!

Thank you Ms. Savannah Long for being there for me through a difficult situation. Your knowledge and diligent work helped me finish my case in one month while everyone else was telling me a year. Out of the 3 lawyers I seen so glad you were my choice !!
