Looking for an awesome family attorney

Mike Allen is a very competent attorney and has a fantastic, paralegal Charlotte that is very friendly and proficient at communication and addressing issues immediately. Mike has a very empathetic, calming demeanor that is very helpful when issues can get elevated during certain situations. He has al...ways been excellent in communicating in a very timely manner. I am very impressed with his positive attitude and his experience with being a former Colorado district attorney as well as a practicing family law attorney. I believe this makes him a very well rounded attorney that can see all views of many situations. I would highly recommend Mike and am very pleased with the outcome of my case thus far and I look forward on continuing to work with him on my case.

Loyal And Devoted.

I hired Mike at Perkins Law Firm to tackle both my divorce and child custody issues I was having. I talked with Mike and his team on numerous occasions through this process. They produce results and value their clients through that accountability. I’m grateful for their service!

My new favorite attorney!

Over the last two years, I have had 4 -- YES F-O-U-R -- attorneys to handle a very miserable divorce. The divorce was brutal. I honestly wish I had met Mike when all of this started. He handled a protection order case for me post-divorce. I feel like his criminal prosecution & defense experience ...would have brought a lot to the table in a messy family situation. Although this PPO situation was fairly simple to navigate, he's done a good job of managing my emotional response to this situation and helping me feel confident in his defense plan that got us through this.
