Allen Eisner Honick

Allen is a founding partner at Furman | Honick Law, and he manages a diverse litigation practice representing plaintiffs in civil rights, medical malpractice, and general negligence matters. Allen is as a true trial lawyer and not just a “litigator”—feeling most at home inside the courtroom—having tried more than fifty cases to verdict. Allen also has significant appellate experience in both State and Federal courts.

Allen’s recent trial successes include a $2.7 million jury verdict against the State of Maryland for civil rights violations, a $700,000 jury verdict for excessive force and constitutional violations, a $402,500 jury verdict for personal injuries caused in a Lyft car crash, and a $350,000 jury verdict against Chili’s for injuries caused by a screw buried in food.

Allen also represents clients in complex matters where the highest degrees of sensitivity and discretion are required. These include civil rights matters against powerful municipal or corporate entities, and wrongful death claims. Allen is selective about the cases he pursues, which allows him to take the time to get to know his clients, understand their problem, and develop a strategy for achieving their goals.

Clients come to Allen primarily by word of mouth—frequently, as a result of referrals from other clients and other lawyers. In fact, one of the highest compliments that Allen receives are referrals from other lawyers and parties who were Allen’s opponents in previous cases.

Allen is also frequently asked to serve as outside general counsel on a wide range of issues, including cannabis law, and real estate acquisition and management.

Before practicing law, Allen spent ten years in the real estate industry. Allen graduated from the University of Baltimore School of Law magna cum laude, and practiced at one of the largest regional law firms for the first eight years of his legal career. In his spare time, Allen enjoys squash, golf, and traveling with his fiancé and children.
