Alonzo McAlpine Alston, Esq. was born in Savannah, GA, and is a loving and dedicated husband and father of two as well as a results-driven, service-oriented, and client-focused attorney. Attorney Alston was born to entrepreneurial parents who were heavily involved in the civil rights movement and is a product of their strong influence and guidance to purpose his life and endeavors on social equality, cause-driven activism, and self-reliance with a focus on empowerment through community building. These values have also influenced his desire to continually exhibit integrity, maintain ownership of his work product, and develop clear goal-oriented communications. Attorney Alston said, “[O]ne of the primary reasons I became an attorney was to make sure that people knew what I didn’t know when I started out in business. I wanted people to know the value of strong agreements and be able to speak to an attorney who had been on the wrong end of a bad deal. Someone’s got to fight for the little guy in business.”
