Firm Overview
A Huntsville Law Firm With Roots Going Back More Than 70 Years
Johnston Moore & Weston carries on a Huntsville legal tradition that began more than 70 years ago. Today we represent individuals, families, and businesses across North Alabama, and many of our clients come to us through referrals from people we've helped before. We work hard to earn that trust on every case.
We're trial lawyers at heart. We prepare every case as if it may go to court, because insurance companies and opposing parties take a claim more seriously when they know your lawyer is ready to try it. That doesn't mean every case goes to trial. It means you're in a stronger position whether your case settles or not.
Our History
Our firm's roots in Huntsville go back generations. William Hooper Johnston began practicing law in Huntsville alongside his father, Edward Douglas Johnston, a longtime Huntsville attorney. After serving in the U.S. Army Air Force during World War II, he returned home in 1945 to resume his practice. Over a 60-year career, he served as President of the Huntsville-Madison County Bar Association and the Huntsville-Madison County Chamber of Commerce.
In 1980, he joined with his son, William H. Johnston, Jr., and George Allen Moore to form Johnston, Johnston & Moore. Mr. Moore, who has practiced law since 1973, has also served as President of the Huntsville-Madison County Bar Association. Christopher Weston joined the firm in 2017, and today Johnston Moore & Weston continues the same commitment to the Huntsville community.
Why People Wait to Call a Lawyer, and Why They Shouldn't
Many people put off talking to an attorney. Some expect the insurance company to treat them fairly. Without a lawyer, and without the possibility of a lawsuit, insurers have little reason to offer what a claim is really worth. Others worry they can't afford a lawyer.
Your first consultation is free. For personal injury cases, we work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay no attorney's fees unless we recover compensation for you. Request a free consultation or call 256-533-5770.
