About Richelle H.
Richelle H. Gossman earned a Bachelor of Science from Lenoir-Rhyne College in 1982 and later completed her Juris Doctor at Birmingham School of Law in 2007. Her academic journey spans decades and shows a return to formal legal training after an earlier collegiate start. The two degrees bookend a period that culminated in her entry to the bar and the start of a new professional chapter.
She was admitted to practice in 2007 and began working as a lawyer the same year. That year also marked the start of her membership in the State Bar of Alabama and the Birmingham Bar Association. Over the years her professional affiliations have remained current. She is admitted to the Supreme Court of Alabama and to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Alabama.
Gossman established Gossman Law Office, LLC in 2007 and has practiced through that firm since. The office serves as her base for filings and appearances in state and federal court. Her practice has been shaped by steady participation in the local legal community and by years of courtroom and office work that followed her admission.
She maintains active memberships in several professional organizations. She joined the Jefferson County Family Court Lawyer Association in 2008 and continues that membership. She has been a member of the American Bar Association since 2008. These affiliations have connected her to peers and given her access to continuing legal education and local practice resources.
Her court admissions and association memberships indicate frequent work in Alabama’s trial and family court settings as well as practice that reaches the federal trial level in the Northern District of Alabama. She handles filings, hearings, and appearances before state tribunals and the federal district court where she is admitted. Colleagues describe her approach as steady and practical in day-to-day practice.
Today she practices from Gossman Law Office, LLC, representing clients in matters brought in Alabama state courts and in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Alabama.
