About Ken
Ken Guin is an Alabama attorney admitted to practice in state courts and more than one federal forums. He appears on dockets from district courts to the U.S. highest court and has held municipal legal positions in his area.
He earned a Bachelor of Arts in English from Auburn University in 1984. He then attended Cumberland School of Law at Samford University, receiving his Juris Doctor in 1987. Those educational years set the stage for a career cut up among court work and municipal service.
Guin has labored in nearby government legal roles. In 2014 he served as a prosecutor for the City of Cordova. The following yr he sat on the bench as a municipal judge for the City of Carbon Hill. Those posts gave him practical experience in municipal ordinances, local courtroom procedures and the day-to-day legal matters cities face.
Beyond municipal matters, he's admitted to practice earlier than a variety of federal tribunals. His admissions consist of the U.S. District Courts for the Middle and Northern Districts of Alabama, the eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals, the U.S. Claims Court and the U.S. Supreme Court. He maintains an active practice that takes advantage of those admissions when things require federal filing or appellate work.
Guin maintains professional ties through bar and local government law teams. He is a member of the American Bar Association, the Alabama Association of Municipal Lawyers and the Walker County Bar Association. Those memberships maintain him related to peers who handle municipal law and trial practice in Alabama.
Colleagues describe his background as grounded in both courtroom process and the mechanics of municipal governance. He has moved among roles that require advocacy and roles that require adjudication, and that experience informs how he strategies client things and hearings.
He presently practices in Alabama, handling municipal law, district court legal proceedings, and appeals in federal and state courts. He represents clients in matters that occur at the nearby-authorities degree and in cases that continue to federal tribunals, focusing his practice on litigation and municipal legal issues.
