Shelnutt and Varner Law Firm

From the very beginning, Shelnutt & Varner Law Firm demonstrated professionalism, integrity, and a genuine commitment to my case. While my divorce itself was finalized within a few months (August–November), the real challenge came afterward, having to enforce the divorce decree and hold my former spouse accountable for compliance. During that time, Attorney Davis Varner and Paralegal Tina Simoneaux were steadfast, responsive, and deeply invested in protecting my rights and my children’s well-being. Davis Varner is an exceptional attorney who is knowledgeable, strategic, and calm under pressure. He clearly explained my options, set realistic expectations, and took a firm yet thoughtful approach to enforcing the decree. He explained each step of the process clearly and ensured that my child

In May of 2025 I was 56 and had my first wreck and of course it had to be by a semi truck. I work for ER Towing and while I was still in the median in my SUV, my boss Andrew Morgan called James Shelnutt and he called me that evening! Being that I’ve never been in a situation like this I was clueless! After speaking with my attorney they did the rest! I am forever grateful for the wonderful people at Shelnutt and Varner!

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

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.
