Immigration law accounts for half of the caseload at Shabani Law Office, a distribution that reflects both the firm’s particular depth in that field and the makeup of the communities attorney Allen Shabani has served across more than a decade of practice in Alabama. The firm handles immigration, divorce and separation, car accidents, and criminal defense, and can be reached at (205) 624-4043.

Introduction

Allen Shabani operates as a general practice attorney rather than a narrow specialist, and the range of his work reflects the real legal needs that individuals and families bring to a single trusted attorney. Over more than ten years of practice, he has served hundreds of clients across immigration matters, family dissolution, personal injury claims, and criminal defense.

The firm’s approach involves clients throughout their cases rather than handling legal work behind closed doors and presenting results. That participation is particularly meaningful in immigration and family law, where outcomes have direct and lasting effects on people’s lives and where clients deserve to understand what is happening and why.

Attorney Profile

Allen Shabani has more than ten years of legal experience in Alabama and has represented hundreds of clients across his practice areas. His practice divides roughly as follows: immigration law represents approximately 50 percent of his work, divorce and separation approximately 20 percent, car accident cases approximately 20 percent, and criminal defense approximately 10 percent. General personal injury cases are also handled beyond the automobile accident context.

The firm’s stated approach is to fight for individuals and families with compassion, which reflects Shabani’s understanding that legal matters, particularly immigration and family law, carry significant personal stakes beyond the procedural details.

Practice Areas

Immigration Law

Immigration is the dominant practice area at Shabani Law Office, comprising approximately half of the firm’s total work. Immigration law covers visa applications, status adjustments, deportation defense, family-based immigration petitions, and related proceedings before immigration courts and agencies. The depth of focus in this area means clients dealing with immigration matters have an attorney whose primary professional attention goes to this field.

Divorce and Separation

Divorce and separation cases represent approximately 20 percent of the firm’s practice. These matters involve property division, asset allocation, and when children are involved, custody and support questions. The firm handles Alabama family law proceedings from initial filing through final resolution.

Car Accidents and Personal Injury

Automobile accident cases represent approximately 20 percent of the firm’s caseload, and the firm also handles general personal injury matters. Clients injured in crashes or through other forms of negligence can bring their cases to Shabani Law Office for representation against the responsible parties and their insurance companies.

Criminal Defense

Criminal defense accounts for approximately 10 percent of the firm’s practice. The firm represents clients facing charges in Alabama criminal courts, bringing the same client-involvement philosophy to criminal matters as to its other practice areas.

Location and Service Area

Shabani Law Office is located in Alabama. The firm can be reached by phone at (205) 624-4043. Clients across Alabama are encouraged to call to discuss their specific situation and the firm’s ability to assist.

Client Focus

The firm involves clients throughout their cases, which means clients receive explanations of developments, understand what is being done and why, and participate in decisions rather than simply receiving outcomes. In immigration matters, where a wrong decision can affect a family’s ability to remain in the country, that involvement is not optional. In divorce proceedings, where long-term financial and custody arrangements are being determined, clients who understand the process make better decisions for themselves and their children.

The firm fights for individuals and families with compassion, which means the human stakes of each case inform how it is handled, not just the procedural requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does immigration law represent half the firm’s caseload?
Allen Shabani has developed significant expertise in immigration law over his decade-plus practice, and the populations he serves in Alabama include many individuals and families with immigration needs. The distribution of his caseload reflects both his depth in this area and the real needs of his client community.

Can the firm handle immigration and a related family law matter at the same time?
Yes. Immigration status often intersects with family law matters, including divorce cases where one or both spouses are non-citizens. The firm’s practice across both areas means these intersecting issues can be handled together.

Does the firm handle car accident cases against large insurance companies?
Yes. Personal injury representation, including automobile accident cases, requires negotiating with and, when necessary, litigating against insurance companies. The firm handles these cases for injured clients.

What does it mean that clients are involved throughout the case?
Allen Shabani does not treat legal representation as a service where the attorney disappears and reappears with results. Clients receive explanations of what is happening, why particular approaches are being taken, and what decisions they need to make. Their understanding of the process is treated as important to the outcome.

Is the firm limited to specific types of criminal cases?
No. While criminal defense represents a smaller portion of the firm’s practice, the firm is a general practice and is not limited to specific charge types. Clients facing criminal matters in Alabama are encouraged to call and discuss their situation.
