Our Awards & Recognition

Candice Hemenes

Candice Hemenes grew up in the small town of Slocomb, Alabama, and now resides with her beautiful family in Ozark, Alabama. Candice obtained her paralegal degree from Everest University and graduated Magna Cum Laude in 2013. Shortly before obtaining her paralegal degree, she began her legal career with Attorney Aaron Gartlan of Gartlan Injury Law, where she has been an integral part of the firm since 2013. 

As a paralegal in hundreds of personal injury cases, Candice has developed extensive knowledge in every aspect of a personal injury claim, from the initial intake to the final settlement. In addition to her paralegal experience, Candice is an aggressive advocate for our clients’ rights and is an invaluable member of the Gartlan Injury Law team.

Candice’s reputation for excellence extends beyond the firm. Attorneys who work with us praise her dedication to the profession, and co-counsel Matt Glover calls her “the firm’s biggest asset,” acknowledging the value she adds to every case. 

Clients frequently applaud her empathy, responsiveness, and willingness to guide them through what can be a difficult and unfamiliar legal process. She understands that a personal injury claim can be stressful and is always ready to answer questions and offer moral support to clients as their cases progress.

Ms. Candice was very nice and supported any questions I had. She answered them with no problem, kept in contact, not just only about the case. We became friends, and I couldn’t thank her enough for everything she had done for me and my family. I’m so grateful for her.
