Rating: 10 Lawyer Rating - 10 out of 10
I have rated Alan as a ten because of the standards that he applies to himself. Alan does not require anyone to push him to be excellent - he expects excellence in everything that he does. He commits his time and efforts with absolute intensity and achieves his goals, whether they are his own professional aspirations or the resolutions or outcomes that his Clients desire. Alan is a powerhouse of legal knowledge and works harder than anyone else that I've met in the industry. He's earned a 10. View More
