Ferris Ritchey has over 35 years of experience in a wide range of legal matters with an emphasis on Domestic Relations, Mediation, Collaborative, Probate and Estate Planning. As a domestic relations attorney, Ferris attempts to resolve complicated divorce issues such as custody and property settlement in a manner to avoid litigation if possible. Although parties to a divorce will no longer be husband and wife they will still be Mom and Dad attending their child or children’s school functions, ball games, recitals, other extra-curricular activities, graduations, wedding and more. To posture a case in a way that destroys the family is a disservice that should be avoided. This philosophy bodes well in probate matters also. Ferris works closely with trained and experienced health professionals to assist his clients in navigating the perils of divorce and similar type cases.

Myesha Harrell, Esquire, brings a rare blend of determination, curiosity, and compassion to her role as Managing Attorney for Alabama at LLG National Law Group. From an early age, she set her sights on a future in advocacy. When a pageant judge once asked what she wanted to be when she grew up, she confidently answered that she would become a lawyer, a mathematician, and an engineer. That early ambition shaped a lifelong commitment to pursuing knowledge, helping others, and challenging systems that leave people without a fair chance. Her drive to practice law deepened over time as she watched friends face a justice system that did not treat them equitably. That experience left a lasting impression and strengthened her resolve to become a voice for people who are often overlooked or underestimated. Today, she channels that purpose into every case she takes on, especially when a client is up against a powerful institution that has caused harm. Knowing she can help someone recover after being wronged is what fuels her work at LLG National Law Group. Before entering the legal field, Myesha built a successful career in engineering and quality systems, most recently serving as a Manufacturing Quality Engineer for Pfizer. In that role, she introduced new quality programs, led audits, conducted root cause analysis, and collaborated with cross-functional teams to improve efficiency and safety. Her background in data-driven problem-solving and regulatory compliance gives her a unique edge when analyzing complex matters and preparing legal strategies. Her legal experience includes roles as a Research Assistant at Southern University Law Center, a Legal Intern with Edgecombe County's District Attorney's Office, and a Congressional Law Intern for Congressman G. K. Butterfield. These positions helped her refine her research and writing abilities, which she now considers among her greatest strengths. She has received recognition for her writing, contributed research for a law review article, and consistently approaches legal issues with both precision and creativity. Clients appreciate Myesha for her thoughtful communication, her focus, and her calm, grounded approach. She thrives when she is trusted to do her work without unnecessary oversight, which allows her to fully immerse herself in a case and deliver thorough, well-supported results. Away from her desk, she enjoys traveling, reading, writing, trying new foods, and spending quality time with her child. Myesha brings her full self to her work, combining technical skill, legal insight, and genuine care for the people she serves. Her path has taken many forms, but each step reflects the same purpose she named as a child: to grow, to learn, and to use her abilities to make a real difference.
