About
The Oncale Firm is led by Shane M. Oncale. Mr.Oncale is a graduate of Cumberland School of Law and has spent his entire career in the courtroom representing individuals, partnerships and corporations in litigation. While at Cumberland, Mr. Oncale had a distinguished record, graduating near the top of his class and serving as Managing Editor of the American Journal of Trial Advocacy, as a member of the AAJ National Trial Team and as a member of both the Henry Upson Sims Moot Court Board and the Cumberland Trial Board.After graduation Mr. Oncale practiced with a well known Nashville, Tennessee firm before growing homesick for Alabama and returning to Birmingham to practice and found several well known and respected law firms. Growing tired of big firm life, Mr. Oncale struck out on his own in 2006 and has never looked back. He loves the variety of his practice and the fact that his office environment is more like a gathering spot than a true traditional law office. The books, computers, conference rooms and legal staff are still there, but both the staff and his clients are treated like family and not like employees or merely clients.Most of the clients that come to us are facing issues they never dreamed they would face and are, truthfully, ill prepared, at virtually every level, financially, emotionally and spiritually to deal with the issues they face. The role of an attorney practicing family law is much more than just a mouthpiece or even an advisor. The role is truly unique and is the most rewarding part of such a practice. While we would never wish the painful issues of a family dispute on anyone, if you find yourself in such a dispute, we welcome the opportunity to represent you and help you through the process with as little disruption and heartache to you and those you care about as possible.

We are so thankful to have had Shane on our case. He helped us win a near impossible case all while communicating with us from several states away. He showed he cared about the child involved and was realistic with us throughout this process. During the trial he was very familiar with our case and I could tell he had studied any notes or resources I gave him. He was a authoritative in the courtroom and would not take ANY crap from the opposing lawyer or witnesses. His presence in the courtroom was demanding and he had prepared exactly what questions needed to be asked to paint a clear narrative for the judge to make the best decision for the child and bring him home to us. He brought our son home. Thank you, Shane!
Shane is an excellent attorney!! He handled my divorce with the utmost professionalism and competency. My case had the potential to turn into a heavyweight bout but his attention to detail and ability to think outside of the box allowed us to make a counteroffer that was, by far, in my favor. It was clear from the start that he has a very good reputation among the legal community. That, along with an easy demeanor and being an excellent strategist, we couldn't help but be successful. He exceeded all of my expectations and I will not hesitate to hire him in the future, no matter what type of legal services I require.
When I used Shane Oncale as my divorce lawyer, he was exactly the opposite of what I had always feared about lawyers. I had heard that they would confuse me, charge me too much, and be almost impossible to talk to. Shane was open, welcoming, made me feel safe, and talked to me by text, email and phone when I needed him. He kept me updated on my case and did an amazing job. He made this horrible time in my life bearable and I tell people about him all the time. I haven't had many dealings with lawyers in my life and I think I got really lucky to find someone so honest and smart.
Shane was very honest and up front about my situation , and helped guide me through this difficult time. His knowledge is excellent and he gave timely responses to me other than a few technical difficulties. I appreciated the no nonsense, no frills demeanor that helped me make solid decisions . You could spend a lot more and get a lot less. Thanks Shane!!
