Excellent: Helpful, timely, thorough & compassionate

Paul was extremely helpful throughout my entire divorce process— he was quick and thorough in his responses, offered sound and thoughtful advice, and advised me against using/paying for services from him that I didn’t need. When I was having difficulty negotiating an agreement with my former husband,... he suggested some negotiating language that allowed us to come to an agreement much quicker than I anticipated. During a very difficult & confusing time, Paul was very helpful, professional and patient.

Principal Broker Emerald Valley Real Estate

Mr. Allen helped me navigate a very complex real estate investment property. He reviewed a note that was going to further encumber my interest in the property, which he quickly pointed out did not provide any recourse for that interest. He then drafted the proper documents that provided me free and c...lear title for a specific piece land. I can honestly say that his expertise, saved my hide! He is personable, listens carefully, pays attention to detail and is sincerely protective of his clients' interests. My recommendation would be to see him prior to negotiation of real estate related matters, hire him, follow his advise and rest easy.

Ethical, knowledgeable, and driven attorney

Mr. Allen consulted with my ex-husband and me as we navigated our divorce. I cannot imagine finding an attorney more devoted to their clients or more capable of managing the complexity and nuance of family law. I trust Mr. Allen immensely and recommend him wholeheartedly.

Bold and helpful

Paul helped me to evict someone who claimed to be a tenant. This person started out as an Airbnb guest, refused to leave, didn’t pay rent for 4 months, was verbally violent and lived like a slob in my home. It was a nightmare situation and Paul was the one to inspire hope, give legal advice, suppo...rt and action to get that guy out of my house.

He Cleaned Up the Mess I Made of My Divorce

Former spouse wanted a quick, easy, cheap divorce. Promises were made and not kept. After 5 years, I was referred to Paul Allen by my family's estate attorney with the caveat, "I wouldn't want to go up against him in court". Paul listened closely, clarified informational "gray areas" and then was ver...y honest and direct with me both about how he works and what he expected of me, if I became a client. He is a consummate professional: files appropriate & timely paperwork with the court, is spot on with his communication to the client and other parties, (he) is realistic about possible outcomes and puts full attention to your case. In a few words, he is knowledgeable, responsible, honest, fair, and tough.
