I gave Ms. Forney 1 star out of generosity. She represented my daughter in a case in which (in my opinion) she ignored the law, her client's wishes, and her client's very clear best interests. I think she is corrupt. No other explaination. Pick a lawyer randomly from the phone book & you wll do better than with Forney. ...read more

Mrs.Rose helped me at the worst time in my life when I was losing my kids during a divorce. My husband had somehow managed to get temporary custody by the time I came to see Mrs. Rose. Because of her unwillingness to stop fighting for me, I now have my children home where they belong. She is an excellent attorney who will fight for you but care about your needs at the same time. I would recommend her to my closest friends and anyway else going through a divorce. If you want the best, go see her today. ...read more

I am simply trying to reach Birmingham's Municipal Court in reference to parking citations given to my car. Not only was I not driving my older, yet still reliable Honda Accord, I also was not parking it illegally, as I work in Pell City. I found a ticket between the seats and was livid when I confronted who had actually been driving my car in the UAB vicinity recently. They were, of course, confrontational about this - acting like I was being silly to be so concerned. I was angry I had not been told of the tickets, and angrier still that they took the situation so lightly. I guess so... it wasn't THEM who may get a warrant for their arrest!!! EEEEeeeeeeekkkk!!! Please help me work this out so I do not get a warrant for my arrest.... I swear I didn't do it, Officer!! And, please... PLEASE... if you ever get a ticket in someone else's car... tell them about it. And not a day before it is due. And also, how about handling it so they don't have to write a review on the internet in hopes of working it out. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated; I need details to pay this or an officer to help me nab the "guilty party" and convince them to pay!!! Thank you and have a better day than I did!!!! ...read more

Mr. Dodd and his secretary, Emily, handled my automobile wreck case wonderfully. I was completely thrilled with their attitude and the friendly service I received, they treated me and my family like a friend, not just another file number, They knew my name and my family's name. Whenever I called I could always find out what I needed and very seldom did I have to be out on hold, the staff was always on top of things. I would definatly reccomend them to everyone. they are not just local but statewide and give you the good old fashioned service of housecalls when necessary. ...read more
The Frankowski Firm is investigating claims related to the GPB Capital Holdings family of investment funds. Last month, GPB Capital reported “significant losses” in its funds with its two largest funds seeing declines of 25.4% and 39%. Investment News reported in March that GPB Capital Holdings is under investigation by the FBI, the SEC, and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). The firm has reportedly raised over $1.8 billion from wealthy investors through private placement funds, which invest in auto dealerships and the waste management industry. The firm reportedly paid over $100 million in commission incentives to over sixty brokers to sell GPB’s Regulation D offerings to their clients. In a lawsuit pending in Nassau County, New York, former GPB partner Patrick Dibre filed a counterclaim in which he alleges that GPB was operating a “very complicated and manipulative Ponzi scheme.” SEC investigators have reportedly been reviewing the accuracy of GPB’s disclosures to investors, fund performance, and investor distributions. The Frankowski Firm is investigating potential investor complaints into the following GPB Funds: GPB Holdings GPB Holdings II GPB Holdings III GPB Holdings Qualified GPB Automotive Portfolio GPB Automotive Income GPB Cold Storage GPB Holdings Qualified GPB Waste Management GPB NYC Development In addition, the Frankowski Firm is reviewing potential claims against brokerage firms which sold GPB for potential violations of their obligations to investors including fraud, omissions of material facts, failure to do due diligence, conflicts of interest, and violations of federal and/or state securities laws, among others. Such firms may include, but are not limited to: Woodbury Financial Services, Inc.; Royal Alliance Associates, Inc.; Sagepoint Financial, Inc.; Newbridge Securities; Ladenburg Thalmann; and Hightower Securities. If you or someone you know lost money as an investor in a GPB Holdings Fund, please call the Frankowski Firm at 888.741.7503 or fill out this contact form. ...read more

Wedbush Securities Inc. will pay $8.1 million to settle SEC charges that it mishandled “pre-released” American Depository Receipts (ADRs), according to an SEC press release. ADRs are U.S. securities that represent shares of a foreign company and require a corresponding number of foreign shares to be held in custody at a depositary bank. Pre-release allows ADRs to be issued without the deposit of foreign shares, if the brokers receiving them have an agreement with a depositary bank and the broker or customer owns the number of foreign shares corresponding to the number of shares the ADRs represent. In this case, the SEC found that Wedbush improperly obtained pre-released ADRs when it should have known that neither it nor its customers owned the foreign shares corresponding to the ADRs. This practice inflated the number of a foreign issuer’s tradeable securities which resulted in abusive practices such as inappropriate short selling and dividend arbitrage. The SEC charged Wedbush with violating Section 17(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 and supervisory failures. Wedbush neither admitted nor denied the SEC’s findings but agreed to a censure, disgorgement payments of over $4.8 million, $800,000 in prejudgment interest, and more than $2.4 million in penalty. The Frankowski Firm is dedicated to helping investors seek relief from unsuitable and fraudulent investment practices. If you or someone you know has lost money as the result of a misrepresented or unsuitable investment, please call the Frankowski Firm at 888.741.7503 or fill out this contact form. ...read more

Car accidents — in Alabama and elsewhere — can be caused by a variety of factors, from negligent drivers to roadway defects. If you’ve been seriously injured in a car accident, then securing maximum compensation for the losses you suffered will require that you comprehensively evaluate the various avenues for recovery. In many car accident disputes, the individual or entity who controls the roadway (and adjacent property) may be significantly responsible for the harm caused. As you explore the prospect ofcar accident litigation, let’s take a brief look at five common roadway hazards that can contribute to the occurrence of a car accident. Consider the following. Poor Visibility Poor visibility is among the most significant factors contributing to car accidents. There are a range of situations that can create poor visibility conditions: inadequate street lighting, objects that block the field-of-view of drivers (and have not been cleared by the defendant), or even sharp distinctions on the vertical or horizontal plane that interfere with the ability of drivers to spot incoming traffic. Physical Hazards Physical road hazards, such as construction barriers that have been misplaced, or large potholes, can create a significant risk of harm for drivers on the roadway. If a driver suddenly tracks their tires across a pothole, that tire-road contact can cause damage to one’s drivetrain and suspension systems and may even penetrate the tires. In extreme scenarios, a pothole can cause the driver to lose control over their vehicle. Inadequate or Broken Signage Some roadways require signage to ensure that drivers are notified as to the inherent risks and hazards and can alter their behavior accordingly. If necessary signage is broken, misplaced, or simply not visible, then this can contribute to an accident. For example, a sign indicating that there is a pedestrian crossing ahead is extremely important for notifying incoming traffic to slow down — if the sign is covered by the hanging branch of a tree, this could lead to a serious pedestrian accident. Traffic Control Issues Traffic control issues are unfortunately common and are often the result of poor roadway design. For example, if a roadway is dominated by unprotected, fast-moving traffic that create an unreasonable risk of harm for drivers and pedestrians, then one could argue that there should be traffic and speed control mechanisms to slow down traffic to an appropriate level for the roadway. Perhaps the municipality could install traffic lights or even speed bumps to better control traffic. Evidence of Prior Accidents Evidence of prior accidents may reveal hazards that are not immediately obvious to those using the roadway. For example, an unprotected left-turn into a school may not seem like a serious hazard for drivers upon first impression, but if there have been three serious accidents involving that left-turn over just a few years, then that may be sufficient to prove that the turn exposes drivers to an unreasonable risk of harm (and that the hazard should be corrected). If you’ve been injured in a car accident in Alabama, then you may be entitled to damages as compensation for your various losses: pain and suffering, medical expenses, lost wages, and mental anguish, among other damages. Successfully litigating an injury dispute can be quite a challenge, however. Contactan experienced car accident attorney for comprehensive legal guidance. ...read more
