Secretary of State for the United States of America

When war broke out between Russia and Ukraine, Mr. Allen Thomason was retained by the Secretary of State to handle several international matters to include negotiating for the release of US Citizens being held by Russia, the extraction of several Religious "Missionaries", negotiations between busin...esses in Ukraine with other international businesses dependant on what had been manufactured in Ukraine, but now unavailable to to the plants buildings and inferstructure being distroyed Russia as part of its invasion into Ukrainian teritory, and taking comand of several military units and saving civilian lives and those in the military on both sides of the Ukraine and Russian War. We know that much of what he dealt with was not what he signed up for but he handled it with courage, strength, and outstanding deplomacy. His military skills were extremely valuable when different areas he was in came under attack. The USA is very thankful for his service.

He opposed us on a case and we were so impressed we hired him for another matter

Mr. Thomason (Allen) opposed us on a matter and we were so impressed with how he handled it we hired him for another case we were dealing with. Upon the completion of the matter Allen represented the opposition to us on, we were so impressed that we hired him for another, unrelated, matter with anot...her company we needed help on. We found that he listened to us better than our own attorneys, was respectful, but firm in his position. Needless to say, we didn't want to lose, but Allen won fair and square. So, given our respect of Allen, and his abilities, we approached and then hired Allen to handle another matter for us. He did an exceptional job, exceeding our expectations, and we have him on retainer for future needs we will have.

He told the story ... and the jury understood it

In a jury trial Allen represented our company and was able to tell the story of what happened and what all was involved in a manner that the jury understood and made sense to them. He engaged them, was aware of when they didn't understand something, and made sure he clarified things when needed so t...hey understood. Excellent Attorney!

Chief Legal Officer

We did a complete background check of Mr. Thomason before we retained him and found he has an excellent reputation and strong skills in dealing with people under pressure. He met every dead line, often early, argued the case concisely and clearly, and can up to speed on the case extremely clearly. ...Mr. Thomason has the ability to work with different people, with different agendas, and perspectives. He listens, and when he speaks you can tell he not only understood the questions, but he responds specifically to them. Although some adamantly disagreed with him, he was always respected. We were very pleased with his ability and the results, we will defiantly use him again.

Excellent to work with.

I am the CEO of a multi billion dollar bank. Mr. Thomason was referred to us as a arbitrator who is not only an attorney, but a CPA and CGMA. We were aware of his prior suspension, as was the two major law firms on either side of the case. After a strenuous back ground check we found Mr. Thomason ...to be fit to handle the case despite his low AVVO rating and previous suspention. The case took three months to resolve and was very complex. We found Mr. Thomason came up to speed very quickly, and his multidisciplinary backgrond in Law, Accounting, and Business to be a tremendous asset in our presenting the case. Since the dispute would affect approximately $3.5 billion of our holding, how they would be handled in the future, and that Mr. Thomason's ruling would be bindind on all parties, we were very pleased with the professionalism he showed, his ability to handle the tough issues, and his strength in keeping both sides in contol. When he rendered his decission we found it fair, well reasoned, and while we did not agree with everything in his ruling we did respect him and how he got there. He did an excellent job for usand we will use him again. We have also recrecommended him highly to others. Mr. Thomason is straight forward, fair, his decissions well reasoned, and he is very good to work with. I can't recommend him highly enough.

Experience

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2012.

Suspension issued in UT, 2012

updated on 11/16/2016

Suspension means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.

Allen’s comment:

“I fully complied with all conditions of the suspension, which was for approximately one year between 2012 and 2013. I was reinstated in 2013 to active status in all courts. If you want to know about it, just ask, I have nothing to hide.”
