This 2005 episode of Alabama Politics, featuring in-depth interviews with top Alabama newsmakers, features the firm’s Founding Shareholder, Jere L. Beasley. Called “one of the most renowned Alabamians” by host Steve Flowers, Mr. Beasley discusses his two-pronged career, first as a politician, and next as one of the most successful personal injury attorneys in the United States. Beasley served as Alabama’s 20th Lt. Governor from 1971-1979, and briefly served as acting Governor of Alabama in 1972, from June 5 to July 7, following an assassination attempt on Gov. George Wallace during Wallace’s run for the Presidency of the United States. Mr. Beasley founded the firm now known by the name of Beasley, Allen, Crow, Methvin, Portis & Miles, P.C., in 1979.
