Recognized as the oldest continuous law
practice in Birmingham and one of the oldest continuous practices
in Alabama, the firm of Cabaniss, Johnston, Gardner, Dumas &
O'Neal LLP has a distinguished history. The origins of the firm,
which began in Birmingham in 1887, can be traced back to the firm's
first lawyer, E. H. Cabaniss, who left the small Alabama town of
Union Springs to travel to Birmingham to capitalize on the growth
of industry and business in the rapidly growing southern town.
There he formed Cabaniss & Banks. A merger in 1920 produced
Cabaniss, Johnston, Cocke & Cabaniss. "Cabaniss, Johnston" has
been a familiar and respected name in Alabama legal circles ever
since. The firm maintains full-service law offices in Birmingham
and Mobile, the two largest cities and economic centers in Alabama.
The strategic north-south location of our offices and their
respective spheres of practice give us an ongoing statewide
presence.
Cabaniss, Johnston is distinguished by the
exceptional ability of its lawyers and the excellence of its work
product and provides a range of services for its clientele. In
addition, the firm encourages professional development and
participation in continuing legal education activities.
