Legacy Planning, Building & Protecting:
Our Fundamental Set of Core Values
The firm’s values are built upon the collective family experiences and interactions of the practicing attorneys, Al Moseley, Esq. & Alana Williams, Esq. The firm incorporates just a few of their relatives’ names to represent the approach in servicing clients:
Tillman: Entrepreneurial with a Great Sense of Humor
Johnson: Kind, Uplifting and Objective
Shaw: Quiet Diligence, Problem Solver and Compassionate
As black men born in the era of the Jim Crow South, they witnessed the growth of opportunities to the younger generation. Rather than naming the firm after their own surnames, Al and Alana honor the legacy of what could have been for these great men if born in a different time, place and socioeconomic status.
