Always There

Allen has helped me through several key legal issues in the 32 years he has been my lawyer. Some were creative expansions of my life and others were unplanned difficulties. He has always lent a kind and understanding ear and been spot on with his legal advice.

Posted by Matthew | January 10, 2011 | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

A truly excellent attorney, Allen Drescher is someone who can think outside the box. A highly recommended legal professional.

I have known Allen Drescher for nearly 20 years and I have retained him on several occasions. As a Judge, I also had the experience of being on the receiving end of the law, having a traffic violation case come to him for his judgement, which was correctly and swiftly dismissed. (A traffic ticket I s...hould never have received and a lack of evidence from the Police Officer, made the case reasonably simple to adjudicate. Nonetheless, it was a slightly uncomfortable situation). My most recent legal case involved a complex set of issues with a prior business that I had owned. Initially, I assumed that I had an uphill battle to fight. I was up against the attorney for the business and its new owner. The case involved ownership of shares and several matters including intellectual property rights, along with my rights to continue on with my own career. In fact, 20 year later, a document that Mr. Drescher drafted in 1990 made the difference in a certain aspect of my legal case. And so, obviously, it pays to have an attorney who archives all of his legal work. But how many attorneys would go to this trouble ? Moreover, Allen Drescher is a creative and clever attorney who is able to think through and around many types of legal issues. My opinion is that that he has a rare gift for quickly grasping and understanding the issues, and is able to move to a winning strategy and successful outcome. I strongly recommend Allen Drescher as a leading attorney in Southern Oregon.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
