About
I am as close to a Huntsville native as it gets, having moved to Huntsville with my family when I was 5 years old. I attended Whitesburg Elementary & Middle School and Grissom High School graduating with the Class of 1979. I attended the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa for the last 4 years of Bear Bryant's coaching career (National Champions my Freshman Year) obtaining a B.A. Degree in Criminal Justice with a dual minor in Psychology and Sociology. I attended the University Of Alabama School of Law from 1983-1986 obtaining my Juris Doctorate and getting licensed by the Alabama State Bar in 1986. The last 4 months of 1986 I practiced in Fort Payne, Alabama with the Honorable Lee Clyde Traylor (later the Hon. JUDGE Lee Clyde Traylor). January 1, 1987, I took a job as an Associate Attorney with Higgs & Conchin in Huntsville where I tried numerous lawsuits and became known nationwide as a Lemon Law Litigator. I started a solo practice January 1, 1990, concentrating in Bankruptcy, Domestic Relations and Personal Injury Cases (The Alabama Legislature statutorily did away with my Lemon Law Practice by passing a State Lemon Law that superseded the more favorable Federal Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act). After a short stint as a Partner at Higgs, Emerson & Dezenberg in 1993-1994, I started a practice limited to Consumer Bankruptcy Law in 1994. In May of 2012, Melissa W. Larsen joined with me to form the Consumer Bankruptcy Law Firm of Dezenberg & Larsen, P.C.. We are committed to providing the best representation possible to consumers facing economic issues. I have five children, three grown (ages 26, 22, and 19 - two having graduated from the University of Alabama and the third having finished her Sophomore Year) and two "new ones" (ages 5 and 6). I am married to the former Shiela Durano Abrogar since 2005. I have one grandchild, age 1 1/2 named Cooper. Active Law Practice leaves me little time for hobbies but I am a boxing fanatic trading fights with "fight traders" around the world. I attend all of the University of Alabama Football home games and I respect anyone who names their offspring "Saban". I stay current on Bankruptcy Law developments by attending the National Association Of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys Annual Conferences, having attended San Diego in 2013 and scheduled to attend New York in 2014.

Reviews
Always kept all appointments, really knows the legal process, was able to answer any questions I had, and performed the required work for the court on time. Most of all he performed the job for the agreed upon price.
He represented me twice, and both times the outcome was in my favor. Not only is he very competent, but he is always responsive and he really cares about his clients.
I'm writing this review because I was just thrilled to speak with Mr. Dezenberg. He is someone that will get me through this rough patch that I am going through. He was so kind, and friendly and had great conversational skills just on life. You don't meet those types of people all the time we even talked about sports. I dealt with a bankruptcy lawyer before and he was a nightmare and his staff was from hell too. But I give Mr. Dezenberg and his staff 5 stars for being top knotch. Thanks, Kristian
John and his staff were so helpful and non judgemental. The entire process was explained in detail. I was very reassured by his knowledge and compassion. I would definitely recommend Dezenburg & Smith to anyone who is in need of the services they offer.
He is very thorough with the best way to handle bankruptcy. What to do. What’s the best chapter .The whole staff has been trained by him I believe because they are very knowledgeable of the step by step process. I can’t recommend him enough.
He explained everything in great detail. He was very friendly. I got his referral from a family member. Looks like he is gonna save me some money. The interest was killing me and I needed to get a grasp on this. Looks like John can help me.
Brandon Smith was nice and very professional. And gave good advice. Warm welcome from the staff.
Mr. Dezenberg made me feel at ease. He was very knowledgeable and explained everything to me. The office staff was very friendly and helpful as well. The fees are very reasonable. All of these reasons are why I chose Dezenberg & Smith to handle my bankruptcy.
Mr. Dezenberg was really helpful explaining to me my opinions and making me feel at ease. I went in the office feeling overwhelmed and like a complete failure and walked out feeling like I huge weight was lifted off my shoulders. He’s very professional, friendly, and knows what he is talking about.
