Background

Amy Creech has worked in family law for over twenty years. She is both a recognized litigator and a registered mediator with the Alabama State Courts. She has received numerous awards and honors for her work in her home state of Alabama. As a mother herself, she understands the importance of honoring families and prioritizing children, even during the rocky process of divorce. In addition to her relationships with knowledgeable, experienced family-law attorneys across the state, Amy has spent years building an extensive network of therapists, private investigators and financial professionals upon whose expertise she can call. This means each of her clients has access to highly-qualified professionals to support them in every aspect of their case.
