Helpful and Direct

I consulted with Allen on updating legal information on our business. He was incredibly helpful and direct with the steps that needed to be taken. I would consider Allen a subject matter expert in his field with confidence in his decision making. He followed up on our process to make sure it was goin...g well. Additionally, his office in Schaumburg served as a great meeting location.

Family Law

Allen is the second attorney I hired to handle family matters. My first attorney, although very nice, and very cheap, but .....As the saying goes "You get what pay for". Allen is confident, calm, VERY professional, able to defuse drama, able to recognize fact from fiction, and extremely knowledg...eable in the area of family law. He and his office staff (Jennifer) are quick to respond to emails, answers to questions are in simple English and to the point, no fairy dust here. I will never use the cheapest attorney I can find again, I will stick with Allen to get the job done right the first time around.

Commercial Real Estate for Photography studio.

Allen, was the key to navigating a difficult situation during the purchase of Commercial Real Estate for my Photography studio. His advice was spot on regardless of what other information and suggestions I received from other trusted advisors. Allen is professional yet compassionate, a great mix for ...success.

Georgeanna Mehr - Residential home sale

Allen handled the sale of the home I owned with my son Jason and the transaction was handled professionally and conveniently. Jason and I were able to sign documents prior to the closing and because of our work schedules, Allen was able to conduct the closing without us attending. We were able to g...et our proceeds check the following day. Professional, efficient, courteous service was evident throughout the process. Thanks Allen.

Family lawyer | Nov 28

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have been fortunate enough to work with Allen not just through the law but as a fellow member of the Northwest Suburban Bar Association and it is here, and in his other endeavors, where his personality as a lawyer shines through. Allen is the rare lawyer that genuinely cares about his community and this same commitment to his community is reflected in his attitude toward his clients. Put simply, Allen cares about his clients, their lives, and how the legal systems is going to impact their lives. This caring drives Allen to obtain favorable outcomes for his clients no matter in what area of the law he may be assisting them. It also separates Allen from the vast majority of lawyers and makes him worthy of any clients' trust."
