A True Advocate Who Fights for Justice

When my family was devastated by a catastrophic injury from a defective piece of industrial equipment, we were overwhelmed. Hiring Joe King was the best decision we could have made. His deep roots in Huntsville and quarter-century of experience were immediately evident. He combined his background in biology with his legal acumen to master the complex technical details of our product liability case, explaining everything in clear terms. It was no surprise to learn of his recent Lawyer of the Year recognitions; his strategic approach and relentless dedication to our cause were exceptional. Mr. King and his team at Morris, King & Hodge treated us with compassion while fiercely negotiating with the insurance companies. The settlement he secured has provided my family with true security and the ability to move forward. He is the epitome of a skilled and trustworthy attorney.
