Contact the Firm

Smith & McGhee, PC is a law office in Dothan, Alabama, that represents individuals and families across Alabama and Florida. The practice is built around four core areas: criminal defense, family law, estate planning and probate, and personal injury. Attorneys there handle matters ranging from DUI, drug possession and burglary defense to divorce, child custody, domestic violence and adoption, as well as wills, advance directives and estate administration, and accidents and other personal injury claims. The firm also appears before courts for trial work and litigation support, reflecting a broad litigation practice grounded in client advocacy.

The firm presents itself as more than strong representation — it describes the attorneys as personal advocates. That framing suggests an emphasis on direct relationships with clients, careful preparation, and recognition of the consequences that criminal charges, family disputes, probate proceedings, and injury claims can carry for a client's future. Scheduling an initial consultation is highlighted as the starting point, allowing prospective clients to discuss their situation, learn about the applicable legal process, and understand how the attorneys approach the strengths and weaknesses of a matter before deciding how to proceed.

Serving the Wiregrass region from Dothan, the office works with clients whose legal concerns range from the urgent to the long-term. Criminal defense matters include charges such as possession of controlled substances, assault, robbery, burglary, fraudulent use of debit or credit cards, sex offenses, attempted murder and trafficking; family law covers divorce, child custody, visitation, modification of orders, and protection from domestic violence; and the estate planning side includes wills, probate and estate administration. Personal injury representation adds another dimension, addressing the consequences of accidents and the rights of injured people.
