About The Oncale Firm, P.C.

We are a full service family law firm serving all of Central & North Alabama.

A lot is on the line in a divorce - your children, your finances and your emotional well-being. With so much at stake, you don't want to depend on a lawyer who doesn't know your name and has no idea what you need to happen.

Skilled at Child Custody and Child Support Decisions

At The Oncale Firm we put one rule at the top - know what the client wants. We have seen lawyers who handle every case exactly the same, without any variation. We have seen lawyers go after assets that their clients didn't especially want. We have seen cases where attorneys didn't even meet their clients until they were walking up the courthouse steps.

And what do these attorneys say when it's over? "We won!" The only problem is, their clients needed a different approach. Those lawyers failed their clients, and they never realized it.

At The Oncale Firm, we slow down... we talk... and we work to get it right.

Respected Shelby County Alabama Divorce Lawyer

We are a full-service family law firm. We help families through every kind of family problem, including:

Divorce

Custody and visitation

Child support

Alimony/spousal support

Property settlement

Prenuptial agreements

Family mediation

Paternity

Adoption

Domestic violence

Before We Speak for You, We Speak With You

No two families are alike, which also means that no single approach to the practice of family law will always be effective. For this reason, we take the time to get to know your goals for you and your family. Once we have a full understanding of your situation, we will provide you with the best options for moving forward.

Hired Attorney Mr. Shane M. Oncale Esq.

I can't say enough about how good Shane and Ronni are at what they do. They genuinely listen to clients' concerns and care about seeking justice in an ethical manner. He pulled off what we thought was impossible for my daughter's case. Shane has a thorough knowledge of working with military clients and understanding their unique needs. He and Ronni both are very personable and easy to talk with. I highly recommend this law office.

Shane is very quick in responding to my questions. He is thorough and is easy to talk with. Not your typical stubborn attorney. It is easy to recognize that he actually cares for his clients and listens to them. Very happy with his services.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
