About Us
When you’re dealing with a criminal charge, a serious injury, or a family law dispute, the lawyer you choose matters.
At John M. Totten, P.C., we believe in the Power of Representation because legal problems are personal, high-stakes, and often life-changing. Whether you are protecting your freedom, your family, or your financial future, you need an attorney who takes your case seriously and knows how to fight for the outcome you need.
Led by Attorney John Totten, our Athens-based firm represents good people across North Alabama in criminal defense, personal injury, and family law matters. We bring a hands-on, client-focused approach backed by real courtroom experience and proven results, including participation in the largest medical malpractice verdict in Limestone County history ($15 million) and a successful $10 million shareholder derivative lawsuit.
Clients come to us because they want direct communication, honest guidance, and an attorney who stays engaged from start to finish. We are relaxed when the situation allows it and relentless when it does not.
Located in Athens, we serve clients throughout North Alabama, including Limestone, Madison, Lauderdale, Colbert, Morgan, and Lawrence Counties, as well as surrounding communities. If you need a lawyer who will show up prepared, fight hard, and treat your case like it matters, you are in the right place.
