Ms. Poynter was easy to reach, available for consult upon request, returned my calls promptly, & answered all questions timely. She did a great job representing me, & provided the desired outcome of my case. I would highly recommend her services, & will use her again in the future if needed.

Ginger was appointed my attorney from a previous colleague when unforeseen circumstances caused her to step away from divorce and custody case. Upon the last time my previous lawyer met she told me "I am leaving you in good hands." That statement is undeniably true and accurate. She helped me get on the right track and disclosed everything that was vital to the case. She consulted me numerous times on which documents were relevant to my case and any information she deemed vital to the case. Over the 2 years of the duration of my case, she kept me informed constantly about details via email and phone calls. Before each court date we would have a preliminary hearing just to have updated information and any pressing issues as well as any new court orders issued. She is absolutely the best lawyer I have ever worked with. She made the entire process and way for me to understand and I would most definitely recommend her to everyone I know. I would definitely retain her again if the circumstances should arise.

I called Ms. Poynter 1 day before court due to having to find a new attorney. She was gracious, professional, and calmed my nerves. We got an appointment that day and she was in court with us the next morning. She was able to get a continuance which allowed for evidence to be gathered and witnesses called. At every meeting with her, she was professional, to the point, and a calming but powerful force in the confusing world of child support/family court. I was convinced I would not find an attorney who would work for the father fairly in a child support issue, no matter who was right or wrong. But Ms. Poynter was in my corner from day one. I could not have asked for a better attorney. I would recommend her to anyone male or female, with child support issues. This is the best experience I have ever had with an attorney. I can't thank her enough for how she handled things for us.

Mrs.Poynter was an excellent attorney for my criminal case. She did exactly what she said she would do and after only 5 months good behavior had my case written off! Would recommend to anyone! Reasonable prices and returns calls/emails quickly! Would use again if needed!!

Ginger helped us in a great time of need for my daughter who lived in California with her mother. My daughter expressed to me that she wanted to live here in Alabama just before going back from her summer visit. I was able to see Ginger last minute just before my daughter had to leave. She heard our case and explained to us that it would be very difficult to modify custody both due to the circumstance of our case and to the law in Alabama. ButGinger believed in us and took the case knowing it would be difficult, and boy was it difficult. After more than a year of preparation and a reset for our hearing we finally had our day in court. She was masterful in her approach to the case and represented me better than I could have ever hoped for. At the end of the day, we weren't sure if it was enough to win custody of my daughter. Well, not only was it enough to win, the judgement was made on a Sunday which allowed me to pick up my daughter and have her ready to start school and a bertter life here in Alabama. I never imaginged after the divorce that I could ever have custody of my daughter and it was always a seemingly impossible dream that it would happen one day. When she asked me if she could stay and live with me, I had no choice but to fight for my daughter to give her the life she needs and deserves. Since the day I met Ginger, my fight became hers. She was not just my attorney or an advocate for my daughter and the rest of my family, she became part of my family and will be forever loved and remembered as such in my and in my family's hearts. I am forever in her debt and believe that no one else could have done what she did with what we had, and I cannot recommend her enough to anyone looking for the best in representation for family law. Thank you, Ginger from the bottom of my heart!

Mrs Poynter was my attorney after a series of poor decisions in my life, and she helped me get help and also represented my best interest every step of the way. She was always an email away, and her office always has someone there to assist. She puts her all into her clients, and she helped me in more ways than one. Her representation has allowed me to start over, and have a shot at a future. And today I am sober, and have been for a long time now. She never treated me like a criminal, but a human being. If you choose Mrs. Poynter not only are you getting the best lawyer in Mobile, but also someone that truly cares, and wants you to succeed. I am forever grateful to her, and definately recommend her for whatever your legal need may be.
