Excellent

Mr. Allen has been my attorney for the past 20 months and has been there at every turn. I suffered a life altering injury at work and he was recommended to me by a family member. Between L&I bureaucracy, greedy insurance company tactics, and my employer’s demands I was in over my head. I can honestly... say I don’t know where my family and I would be financially without his expertise. Whenever an issue arises, and there have been plenty, he is there to provide an explanation as well as reassurance. He is able to breakdown complicated legal jargon into easily digestible information. Mr. Allen is dependable, straightforward, attentive and compassionate; he has navigated me through turbulent seas and I’m grateful to have him as my advocate. Without reservation I would recommend him to anyone dealing with an injury or disability.

Giraffe Award -- Sticks his neck out for veterans!

Mr. Allen successfully forced the Veterans Adminstration to frecognize my rights and benefitsand to provide my medical benefits. It was very tough fighting the government, but Mr. Allen made sure I was informed and truly appreciated my military service.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
