MAYNARD COOPER & GALE
MONTGOMERY, ALA.
With offices in Birmingham, Huntsville, Mobile and Montgomery, Maynard
Cooper & Gale provides business services throughout Alabama. Earl
Doppelt, executive vice president, general counsel and secretary for Walter
Energy Inc., says the company has been working with Maynard Cooper &
Gale for around 20 years; the long-standing relationship can be attributed to
the firm’s “combination of first-rate legal skills, great understanding of our
business … [They are] very client-focused and service-oriented and frankly,
have extremely reasonable rates,” says Doppelt. These lawyers work cases
involving general and commercial litigation, employment relations litigation,
transactional work and general corporate work.
