About Allen
Biography
My first exposure to law began in 1993, when I worked as a Legal Specialist in the U,S, Army. I later left the military for college, though I continued to work in the legal clerk for the Gainesville State Attorney's Office.
I graduated from Creighton Law School, cum laude, in 2005 and have been in practice ever since, mainly focusing in employment law and military law matters.
In 2012, I received a direct commission as a JAG in the U.S. Air Force and have been working as a prosecutor and legal assistance attorney for the AF, as a reservist.

Successful Appeal
Attorney Tate is tireless in searching for the truth. When he discovers it; the acumen with which he presents the relevancy of the truth to the matter at hand resulted in turning a wrong verdict right side up.
