AREAS OF PRACTICE



Robert. B. McGinley, Jr.

Mr. McGinley’s business acumen has been honed since his undergraduate days at Washington & Lee, where his chosen curriculum included a major emphasis on economics and finance. Those skills propelled him to an in-house position with an internet business directly after law school, and have been refined with years of experience representing the interests of businesses in a variety of transactions and matters requiring litigation.

Recent significant cases and transactions include:

  • Represented a defendant in a series of arbitration hearings involving securities fraud, with all cases resulting in the dismissal of the defendant
  • Represented banks in numerous real estate and asset-backed loans, including:
    • a $20,000,000+ loan to a local hospital
    • a loan of approximately $5,000,000 to a carpet supply company
    • a $4,000,000+ loan to a commercial developer
  • Represented a local business seeking to purchase millions of dollars in assets, located across the US and China, from a troubled business
  • Represented various businesses in multi-million dollar tax valuation disputes with the Mobile County Board of Equalization
  • Represented a group of physicians in the sale of partnership interests and the establishment of a new practice

Mr. McGinley seeks to offer each client high-quality and efficient services suitable to the size and scope of each transaction or case. He is married to a former attorney, and together they are parents to two daughters and a son. The McGinleys are members of Dauphin Way United Methodist Church.
