Exceptional Attorney

Allen Blake went above and beyond in representing me in my criminal case. The charge would have haunted me for the rest of my life if it resulted in anything other than a dismissal. Allen demonstrated remarkable knowledge and understanding of the law and legal process throughout the entirety of my ...case. He assured me the law was on my side and ultimately got the dismissal I needed. I highly recommend Allen Blake for an excellent job done. And I cannot thank him enough.

Very helpful, effective, and responsive

Helped take care of my case dealing with online reputation issues; cleaned up my record - very effective in his work, got the job done quickly, and was very helpful and responsive.

Excellence and Dependability

I have known Allen for a number of years and know no other lawyer who has the drive, determination or professionalism that Allen represents. He is always there when you need him.

Beyond Helpful

Allen Blake was beyond helpful in consulting with me and making sure I understood the matter at hand. He was fantastic at not letting my emotions get the best of me. He took time to guide me in making sound rationale decisions that would not jeopardize my future. Thank you, Mr. Blake. You are a life ...saver!

Best Lawyer In Texas

My mother & I found out that I would be facing a total of four charges, two misdemeanors & two felonies. The day I had my ankle monitor placed on my ankle we did not have an attorney representing me at the moment. My mother went to countless attorneys to just get an idea of what I was facing and how ...much they would charge her. All of the attorneys besides Mr Blake said they needed money upfront before discussing my case. Mr Blake was very patient, informative and realistic through out this entire process. While we were gathering the funds to hire Mr Blake he was still communicating with my mother in regards to the status of my case and never pressure us to hire him. We hired Mr Blake two months before trial I believe and he made sure I understood the worst case scenario of taking the case to trial. Throughout the entire process he always made my family & I feel at ease. One day before trial that's when we received a plea deal from the DA to drop all 3 of the charges and serve x amount of years on deferred probabation. After weighing the pros & cons I decided to accept because that was the only charge they could hammer me on only due to a technicality. This has been the hardest situation I've ever had to overcome & I do not see myself overcoming this if it wasn't for Mr Blake. I hope no one ever has to go through what I went through but if you ever get yourself in a tight situation I would only trust one lawyer with my life and that is Mr Blake! Thanks Merry Christmas & Happy New Years!
