Truly dedicated to your case

Allen has worked tiredlessly over the last 2 years of my on going custody & child support case. He’s been 100% honest & upfront with me on the things I ask vs the things that will happen. My case is not an easy with considering my former spouse is a very difficult individual & has been dragging me ba...ck & forth into court for the last 5 years once a year. Whenever my ex filed false charges for harassing communications and I ended up being arrested, Allen was there 20 minutes after I got to the jail. He was reassuring that these charges would be dismissed and he was right! They were and the other party had to pay for court costs. Allen has never wavered. Never told me to give up. He’s always been there whenever I get hit with another filing motion & fights for what is right for us giving his 100%. I found Allen off of this website & I have to say he’s been amazing every time I’ve worked with him. Even whenever I was out of state, he kept up the lines of communication & helped me with my local legal issues. My case is still on going but Allen is still there with our family to navigate through it. Allen is professional at all times and a tremendous help whenever I have questions. I highly recommend him for your criminal as well as civil cases.

Review for Allen Jones, Attorney

Over the past year, my family has undergone tremendous change (family deaths, real estate transactions, insurance claims, probate challenges, will designations, etc.). I cannot begin to imagine navigating these waters without Allen's steadfast help and support. Whether my family has reached out to hi...m about an insurance communication we didn't understand, or whether it's been a tight-deadlined probate matter, Allen has, without exception, gone above and beyond to make sure we got the answers and resolution we needed. For example, we recently sold a piece of property that belonged to my father (who recently passed away). A few days before the sale was slated to close, we learned that the will had to be probated. Even though it was in the middle of the holiday season, Allen reached out to the judge and made sure the probate was done in time for our closing. If he hadn't done that, we would have had to begin the entire process all over, which would have likely resulted in the seller backing out. This is one of many, many examples of how committed Allen is to his clients. We take a great deal of comfort knowing that whenever we reach out to him, he will help us get answers we need; it isn't even a question. I trust Allen wholeheartedly and could not recommend Allen more highly.

State Banking Department potential violations of a State Banking Examination

Allen worked quickly and kept us in the loop as to what was happening at all times of the mat...ter. as a result of Allen's work, we were not fined and out procedures and correspondences were made compliant with the law.
