About
I have over twenty-six (26) years of extensive experience in the areas of civil and criminal law in Alabama’s state and federal courts at both the trial and appellate levels. My practice areas are sexual harassment, employment discrimination, wrongful termination, auto and truck accidents, wrongful death, and personal injuries.I started working as a law clerk for Richard Jaffe in 1987 when Mr. Jaffe was a partner at Jaffe, Burton & Digiorgio, P.C., and I became an associate there in 1990 upon graduation from law school. When Richard Jaffe decided to establish his own practice, I followed Mr. Jaffe as an associate and later became his partner at Jaffe & Strickland, P.C. Later, Derek Drennan and Hube Dodd would become associates and then partners at Jaffe, Strickland, Drennan & Dodd, P.C. I was in charge of writing most of the firm’s appellate briefs, and I ran all aspects of the civil litigation side for the firm, including case management, complex discovery, motions practice, depositions, trials, and appeals, when necessary. Most of the civil cases that I have handled were on behalf of injured individuals but I have also successfully represented businesses as well. In addition, we were co-counsel for the Honorable Bernard Kincaid, Mayor for the City of Birmingham – 2000-2008.In Alabama, five Death Row inmates have been exonerated and are now free. I successfully represented Wesley Quick, the 5th exoneree, on his appeal. In addition, I worked with Barry Scheck and Nina Morrison from The Innocence Project to obtain the release of an Alabama inmate through DNA evidence.I was voted one of the Top Attorneys in Alabama for 2016 as published in Business Alabama Magazine's Super Lawyers Section. I also have a current "BV" rating (good to very good) in Martindale-Hubble Peer Review Ratings.

Mr. Strickland was extremely helpful when it came to my legal issues. He helped whenever I had any questions and was very prompt to answer all of them. Stephen outlined my options very clearly and informed me on the best possible course of action. I have always heard that legal issues and lawyers can be a bit of a headache but that was not at all my experience with Mr. Strickland.
Mr. Strickland was extremely helpful with my situation and took care of business quickly. He helped me keep track of everything and gave the best advice possible. God forbid I find myself in a tight spot again, but if I do, I know who I'm going to call.
Unfortunately my father found himself being prosecuted for a serious criminal allegation. Initially we were sceptical, everyone has heard the jokes. Upon hiring Mr. Strickland the stereotypes disappeared. He spoke to us and my father in a manner which made the entire utrial process understandable. He either investigated, and interviewed every avenue we presented him with or he hired someone who did. This guy is a real "go-getter". We trusted Mr. Strickland with our father's freedom and life once and we "all" would do it again. Ijs the guy is good.
Mr. Strickland represented us in a case involving our infant. She had been given an incorrect dosage of medication by the pharmacist and was having Myoclonic seizures. Stephen kept us informed throughout the entire process and always had our daughter’s best interest in mind. He reassured us at times when we felt overwhelmed and took the burden away from of us of finding out what went wrong. She is thankfully seizure free today. We would not hesitate to recommend Stephen Strickland to anyone seeking legal representation.
Stephen has been the post conviction attorney for my son who is serving juvenile life without parole in Alabama. He is a brilliant advocate who has written arguments that have kept our case alive. He has developed strategies that will not only help my son, but others like him, as well. He has never given up on our case and his positive outlook has made the difference in my own belief that we will ultimately prevail in winning a re-sentencing hearing for my son.
