Christian & Small is pleased to announce that Partner Sharon D. Stuart has been elected President of the Alabama Defense Lawyers Association (ADLA).
“It is a great honor to be selected by my friends and colleagues within the membership to be ADLA’s president this year,” Stuart said. “My thanks to Past President Allen M. Estes for his service during his 2016-17 term, and I look forward to working with President-Elect Dennis R. Bailey, Secretary-Treasurer Christina M. Bolin, our newly elected Board of Directors, and Young Lawyers Section officers and directors as we embark on what is sure to be another successful year.”
ADLA strives to bring together lawyers in Alabama who devote a substantial amount of their professional time to the handling of civil defense cases, facilitating among members the exchange of information, ideas, techniques and court rulings related to the handling of civil defense litigation. These exchanges are intended to improve the skills of civil defense lawyers and elevate the standards of trial practice. ADLA supports and encourages an increase in the quantity and quality of the service and contributions the legal profession provides to the community, state and nation.
At Christian & Small, Stuart dedicates her practice to civil trial work and arbitration, focusing on complex commercial, insurance and product liability litigation. She received her B.S. from Samford University and holds a J.D. from its Cumberland School of Law.
