In May of 2015, I hired the services of the James Farmer law firm as a result of a motor vehicle accident that I was involved in with another vehicle in PG County. The other vehicle was clearly at fault and this fact was also stated in the official police report after a thorough investigation by the MD State Police. However, the defendant refused to accept the responsibility for his wrong doing to the point that he told his insurance company not to pay for the claims filed by the law firm on my behalf. So after a year of unsuccessful arbitration and adjudication between his insurance company and Farmer law firm, the case went to trial in a civil court. It was at this point that Mr. Melvin L. Allen Jr, ESQ, who works for the James Farmer law firm was assigned to my case as my trial lawyer. Mr. Allen was well familiar with my case, he well conversant with the laws surrounding my case, he prepared me for the trial and moreover he was well prepared for the trail as well. Mr. Allen presented a strong, clear, factual, accurate and convincing deposition to the judge. He thoroughly cross examined the defendant that the truth eventually came out. And the judge ruled in our favor and we won the case. Mr. Mr. Allen is well articulate with great public speaking skills. He's thorough, thoughtful, analytical, poised and smart. He's resolute, has strong logical thinking ability and interpersonal skills. You definitely want him on your legal team..

A Pitbull in the Court! The One You Want on Your Team!

I retained Mr. Allen when my husband was in jail; he was charged with several serious crimes that could have kept him locked up for the rest of his life. One thing that struck me during the consultation was Mr. Allen's ability to relate... I could tell this case would not be "just another file" to him, but he would dig his teeth in and fight as if it were HIS relative's life on the line. Another thing that impressed me was Mr. Allen's integrity in keeping his promises... The first being to visit my husband in jail before the weekend was over.
Mr. Allen offered me a flat fee upfront, but was available via text if there were any emergencies, critical questions, and various court scheduling de-confliction. Although, the outcome looked bleak, Mr. Allen's experience, professionalism, skillful negotiation, and much fasting and praying resulted in my husband being placed on house arrest and probation. I am SO grateful my family is still together and happier now than ever! Thank you for all of your hard work and care!

I have used Mr.Allen for all my cases from criminal to auto. In my criminal cases he got all four charges dismissed & I was able to get them expunged with a criminal record. As far as my auto I came out with big money.

He worked my case vigorously and professionally. I wouldn't recommend anyone else. With out his representation I would more than likely still be sitting behind bars based on my lack of knowledge of the judicial system. He is the best lawyer I ever had personally. I am a client for life!!!!

Mr. Allen is an excellent counsel. He is efficient and does the necessary research needed to win the case he is fighting for. Within the case where he represented me, we were in front of the judge in all of about 2 minutes tops. He is exceptionally friendly and willing to work with anybody.

I am only able to write this review because of the choice I made to have Mr Allen represent me. I was charged with a number of very serious charges and I was obviously very skeptical about who was going to serve as my counsel. Mr Allen gained my confidence only seconds into our initial phone consult. I immediately hired him as my attorney. Mr Allen has the the uncanny ability to make you feel like you are his one and only client. His dedication to his clients, attention to detail and overall legal knowledge are just a few of the characteristics that set him apart from the crowd. Mr Allen is highly respected among his colleagues and peers. He has had a chance to work on both sides of the of law both prosecuting and now defending clients which gives him added credibility and experience. When you are in front of a judge and jury, your guilt or innocence is ultimately going to decided based almost solely on your attorney's ability to effectively present the facts. His poise, ability to read a room, and organizational skills are superb. I trusted Mr Allen with my life and I am here to tell my story because of that choice.

I was extremely nervous. I had no idea what to expect. Mr Allen always assured me that everything would be okay. He was absolutely right. I'm so grateful I called his law office. Thing is, I actually called after business hours, and he picked up the phone. He ask me about my case. I explained. He said to me, " Ms Thomas, I am now your attorney. And we will get through this. He was absolutely right. I can't express how grateful I am for actually calling his law office and speaking to him one on one. Thank you Mr Allen. You're the best attorney out here. Praise be to God for attorneys like yourself.

Best patient, professional, attorney EVER. If you want an attorney that will be patient while you're in pain, a lawyer that will fight for you, listen to you the victim; then hire Melvin Allen Jr.. I was in so much pain ! I was mean, angry just hurt. Mr. Allen showed nothing but compassion and vicious in the court room. He took care of both of my accident cases and I would refer him to EVERYONE that needs an attorney. Thank you Mr. Allen for all that you've done to secure my future after such a horrific accident. You're the best!!!!

Mr. Allen is the best attorney's I've ever met. His staff is consistently reassuring and professional. Mr. Allen's dedication and work ethnic provides excellent and responsive services to meet the needs of his clients. Him & his staff made sure everything was ok for me all through my case explaining everything i didn't understand. The main thing i liked about Mr. Allen and his staff that they treated me with respect and listen to me and not treat me as a just another case for them.

My wife and I are forever grateful to Mr. Melvin Allen Jr.! My initial consultation was so thorough and he gave so much attention to my case prior to even hiring him. Once I did hire him, Mr. Allen sort to strategically get my case rectified. I was facing jail time over a matter I neglected to handle for 10 years but Mr. Allen's strategy and court room presence not only solved my case but gave me a more favorable outcome than I could ever imagine. I am glad I made the decision to hire this firm. I would do it again without thinking (in fact I am for another case I need to handle) and so should you!

Attorney Melvin L. Allen, Jr. is, by far, the BEST attorney I have ever worked with. Melvin has represented me twice in the last year. Both results exceeded my expectations. His knowledge of the law and how it can work for you is exceptional. Melvin is professional and results oriented. He remains focused on the goal and comes prepared with several strategies to meet it. I absolutely recommend hiring Melvin for legal counsel.

Need an attorney that will fight for you? Melvin Allen is just that person you are looking for! He was very knowledgeable and made himself familiar with my case in all aspects. He made himself available to accommodate my schedule and even came out to meet me on multiple occasions when I wasn't available to get to him. He's that attorney who will go to war for his clients. Will definitely hire him again if needed for anything

Mr. Melvin L. Allen Jr. is so amazing! Through a circle of professionals who referred me, I was overwhelmed to meet a gentleman who puts you at ease, listens very diligently to your case, asks very pertinent questions helping you to give clear and complete statements, gathers in a methodical way all the documents needed...next comes the court day where you really feel a comforting presence representing you! And then all unfold! What a GREAT attorney! Thank you Sir!

Melvin Alvin helped to save my integrity. I will forever be grateful. He is the lawyer to call to help. I chose him because of his high recommendations; and I now will also like to highly recommend him. Even though my case was outside of his specialties, he handled my case with expertise and I could've asked for better results.

Mr.Allen was there when I needed him most. I was facing life changing charges and it was settled before it made it to trial! H hopefully I won't need him again but he will be my first call if I do run into a situation.
