About
I believe the most important thing an attorney can do for their clients is to educate them so they are empowered to make the decisions that will be most beneficial to them. Family law is an extremely personal field and a relationship between an attorney and client is at the forefront of solving the issues that will arise. I have been practicing family law almost exclusively for six years and have had the opportunity to help hundreds of clients with issues ranging from custody, child support, divorce, alimony, equitable distribution, and other issues that come along with all of these claims. I am a firm believer in attempting to resolve issues through alternative dispute resolutions (out of court), but also preparing for litigation contemporaneously. As your family law attorney, I will get to know your case on a ground level so your matter can be tailored to fit your specific lifestyle. I strive to not only help guide your legal matter, but to be available to you for any practical advice that may be needed along the way. Outside of the legal world, you can find me volunteering with local organizations, shooting high scores of golf in the surrounding area, and cheering on THE Ohio State University.

Alex is the best attorney ever he is very helpful when comes to preparing your case as well as keeping you updated on the next steps. I’m glad that I hired Alex to represent me during my case. Thank you Alex so much ….
I hired Attorney French to help me with a matter in Gaston County. He we above and beyond to help me in a time sensitive manner with a successful outcome.
I appreciate you Alex for working with me and for me to get what is due to me. Thank you!
I hired Mr. Alex French in May 2021, after reading through many differnt reviews for months on google. At the time, I was still in Nairobi, Kenya seeking to enforce my Foreign Custody Orders in the U.S for the return of my abducted Son, Ethan. He had been missing for almost 3 years. Alex was a glimmer of hope to my family at a time when our options appeared limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed far out of reach. Not only was Alex able to defend my Foreing Custody Ordres, his calm and empathetic demeanor offered reasurance to myself and my family at every hearing. We finally got the outcome we had hoped for three years because Alex walked miles in my shoes and was able to show the Honourable Judge the whole picture. We are back home in Kenya with our little boy. Angels don't always come down on wings. They are right here with us. My family and I are eternally grateful and recommend Alex French without reservation.
Mr. French has been nothing but wonderful during some of the hardest events in my life. He has worked hard and is dedicated to make sure my case has the attention it needs. He speaks confidently and rational with me. Going through custody issues is the worst- but Mr. French has made it bearable.
Alex walked me through my alimony renegotiation during Covid which created some challenges. Process took a bit longer than expected but the results were worth the wait.
My lawyer got me a good custody arrangement. Also got a win to have my kids mother held in contempt. Which was huge cause I went 3 months without seeing them
Straight to the facts, no games or playing around very good at breaking down the system and what's likely going to happen.
Alex has an easy-going demeanor and really knows his law. He schooled me on my rights, listened to my concerns and then we discussed options. Alex kept me updated and was SO PATIENT re-explaining terms and concepts as the process unfolded. He handled all the messy bits that I was dreading and negotiated a better settlement than I expected (and my ex still talks to me!). Actually, our relationship is so much better since the settlement. Just being separated left us both in limbo. My ex was glad that Alex wasn't some pit bull lawyer trying to gut his finances for bragging rights. For me, Alex was worth every penny: peace of mind, the excellent settlement, minimal drama (from my ex & kids), updates & communication and the respectful way he handled my case. I highly recommend Alex. If you're on the fence or have been putting off an inevitable divorce, give Alex a call. I'm pretty certain you'll be glad you did.
Thank you, Alexander. You were the easiest part of a tough situation. Quick to respond and knowledgeable every step of the way. Highly recommend.
