David Frederick Allen

Mr.Allen and his team have been such a blessing...They took my case, informed me every step of the way, never made ANY decision's without my consent and are by far worth every penny. Mr.Allen and his team have worked with me for the past 2 years and I wouldn't trade them for anyone else, they're ext...remely knowledgeable and beyond trustworthy. Thank you so much for all your help and support. YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!

I felt like during my divorce mediation he was more concerned about convincing me to settle at any cost so he could get home by 5pm. There's nothing like being tag-teamed by your own attorney and opposing counsel to give your ex more than 50% (costing me tens of thousands of dollars) just to be done... in a day. He then conveyed his lack of conviction to the mediator which only weakened our negotiating position. I only received a half way decent deal by sticking to my guns and compromising to a fraction of the degree he repeatedly pushed me toward. Legal and tax issues then came up later from that agreement that I felt he could have easily preempted if he either had more experience in divorce law or had been more engaged. Lastly, I often found Mr. Allen unresponsive through emails with inconsistent communication practices. On a personal level, he is friendly and pleasant, but on a professional level I cannot recommend him.

Wow, I read a previous review and was surprised to see someone’s review almost match my feelings exactly. I wish I reviewed this site before hiring Mr. Allen. I too felt like he was more concerned about convincing me to settle and I most DEFINITELY felt like I was being tag-teamed by him and opposin...g counsel! I knew it was time to move on when the opposing counsel made reference of me being uncooperative because I went against my attorney’s advice that he NEVER gave me and especially when he told me he would read my comments to the proposed plan the day before mediation and I quote “this is how it works.” He did not keep me informed unless I contacted him or scheduled a meeting with him and I definitely lost trust in him. To top it off he provided me with the wrong financial affidavit form which I completed and now have to redo because my new lawyer pointed out that it was the incorrect form (either not knowledgeable or didn’t pay attention)! I feel I wasted my time and money and lost ground on my case as a result. I do not recommend him for a child support child custody matter. On a personal level, however, he seemed pleasant.

Mr. Allen and his staff have been nothing less than fantastic in helping me through my divorce. He and his staff are very sincere and honest people. They truly showed compassion for my situation in ways I could of never imagined. They have communicated well and always made me feel my case is of the u...pmost important. I feel blessed to have found not only a great attorney and staff that work hard for me, but also kind friends
