Alison Holcomb's Peer Endorsements

I endorse this lawyer.

I have both worked with Alison and sought advice from her on numerous occasions. She is a brilliant, hard-working, dedicated and very successful attorney. As all the prior endorsements indicate- anyone would be very lucky to have her as an advocate.

Alison is a spectacular attorney. Her thoroughness and incredible attention to detail make her a formidable foe in the courtroom. She has an amazing capacity to recall insane amounts of detail and convey large amounts of infomation succinctly and clearly. She is passionate about protecting the rights of medical marijuana patients and truly cares about her clients. She is simply outstanding.

Alison Holcomb's skill as an advocate is second to none. Her thoughtful, insightful, and intelligent counsel is a critical asset to every client she represents and every cause she champions.

Alison is an extremely intelligent, persuasive, and well-organized speaker. I've heard her speak at attorney conferences, and was impressed and inspired.

Alison is an outstanding lawyer and a generous and amazing person. She gives of herself endlessly: to the legal community, to new lawyers, to fellow defenders. Her insight, research, experience, attitude, and passion leave me without hesitation to recommend Alison to anyone seeking assistance. She is absolutely fantastic!

After more than 30 years of practicing law I believe I finally learned how to listen to a client. Really listen. Alison taught me how, and she was barely out of law school. Every client she served in our office received her complete focus. I lost track of the compliments from clients, court staff and even prosecutors. She once took on an entire herd of state and federal law enforcement officers by herself. They blinked. She didn't. We collected. Once I asked her to write an article about a sentencing issue -- the clearing of criminal records. She did. I later found that the Sentencing Commission was using her article as a part of their training materials. Alison has the strength that comes from doing what you believe in. Always well prepared, ready to be a diplomat or a warrior, she's got talent and the tenacity to find a solution to the problem. A hard-headed woman? That makes for a great lawyer. Oh! And she can dance!!
