About the Firm

Our firm was founded by three World War II veterans who harnessed their sense of honor, duty and fairness to protect hard-working businesses against unjust accusations. Today, that same fighting spirit lives in each of our attorneys. We are a litigation firm of proven leaders, standing up for what we believe. And never backing down. We stand for results. For leveraging our trial and litigation expertise to aggressively defend our clients’ best interests and reputation. We stand for courage. For never turning away from the difficult cases most firms choose to settle out of court. We stand for integrity. For putting our clients’ needs first and upholding the highest ethical standards. Most importantly, we stand for fiercely defending the honor of those we are sworn to protect, providing peace of mind during their most challenging times. We stand for you. We stand with you. So together, we can stand firm. Huie, Fernambucq & Stewart. Stand firm.

Recruitment

Huie has built a long-standing reputation as fearless litigators who approach every case prepared to go to trial and equipped to win. So recruiting the right team members is paramount to growing our firm and continuing to provide the service and results our clients expect. We rely heavily on our summer associate program to fill associate positions. Our vibrant summer associate program provides in-depth insight into our firm, attorneys and areas of practice. A typical day includes brief writing, legal research, witness interviewing and assisting with deposition and trial preparation. Summer associates also accompany attorneys to hearings, depositions, client meetings, witness interviews and trials to gain valuable litigation experience.

Summer associates are assigned mentors who provide feedback and guidance on projects. To foster relationship building among summer associates, mentors and all Huie attorneys, the summer associate program includes numerous social, recreational and educational events.

The summer associate program provides in-depth insight into our firm, attorneys and areas of practice.

Our summer associates are a diverse group of talented individuals seeking to gain invaluable, hands-on litigation experience. The number of available summer associate positions is determined by a realistic evaluation of our expected hiring needs. We conduct on-campus interviews at The University of Alabama School of Law and Cumberland Law School at Samford University. Interested law students should check with their Career Service Office for deadlines to submit materials and for interview dates.

Additionally, we are always interested in meeting and discussing employment opportunities for all qualified law students and lateral attorneys.

We stand
for diversity.
