Real estate client

Attorney Allen made our closing process easy. He was accommodating to our situation and he took the time to explain everything to us in terms that we could understand. He was thoughtful and respectful. We would highly recommend Attorney Allen.

Contractor's Perspective

Attorney Allen is a great person, which is nice plus when you are in a position of needing someone with his services and he can put you at ease. As a contractor, I occasionally run into situations when customers do not pay their account in full, when a subcontractor does not fulfill his contractual d...uties plus various other "bumps in the road". I would definitely recommend Attorney Allen and will continue to use him in the future.

Greg Allen

Att Allen is a long time friend and great Attorney. He is someone u can trust to have your best interests first or foremost. I have utilized his services many times in my Real Estate career, thru representation of my Clients, and also thru personal real estate transactions. He is very responsive, whi...ch is something I pride myself on and welcome it in an Attorney. I would recommend him & his office at any time for any real estate or other matters other than, as well. Great thing about Greg is that if he feels that he can't be the right representative for your case he is very willing to provide suggestions to get the task taken care of!

An attorney with the highest standards of practice

I was very happy with my experience working with Attorney Allen on my child support case. He was extremely knowledgeable, well prepared, thorough, and articulate. He clearly practices with the highest standards. With all this said, I still found him to be personable, caring, and easy to work with....

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
