About Kevin
Biography
Born and raised in Lower Bucks County, Pennsylvania, I attended Temple University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and received a Bachelor of Science degree in Physical Therapy in 1980. After becoming licensed in Pennsylvania, I worked initially as a physical therapist and then as the Assistant Chief Therapist at Metropolitan Hospital in Philadelphia. My experiences as a physical therapist give me a unique insight into the complexities of bodily injury claims.
In 1984 I enrolled in Temple Law School’s evening program while working full time as a physical therapist. While at Temple Law I volunteered with the Food Stamp Action Project, a program that operated in conjunction with Community Legal Services in Philadelphia to advocate for impoverished families.

Clear and Present
I truly can not say enough about Mr. Allen. I was given a clear and honest evaluation of my situation, with realistic expectations concerning the outcome of the case.

HORRIBLE
Went to see Kevin for a consultation about my unemployment appeal. Drove 30 min. to see him and got only disrespect. Wanted to get up and leave. Very biased attorney. He didn't like my situation and said it was unacceptable for what I did. Lawyers are suppose to LISTEN and not get their emotions...
