Magnolia Lawyers

28 years criminal law experience. Juvenile and all Municipal Courts in Ohio.

After graduating from Cleveland Marshall College of Law in 2011, Allison immediately opened a law firm focusing on Criminal Defense. Over the past 9 years, she has worked on hundreds of felony cases, misdemeanor cases and criminal appeals. Although Cleveland is the primary location for her practice, Allison has traveled to most counties in Ohio to represent clients in need of services.

Criminal Defense goes beyond representing someone charged with a crime, it's assisting an individual to obtain community services, mental health assistance and addiction relief. Allison works hard to bring compassion to this area of law.

With pride. I am a triple barred attorney in three states. Ohio, NY. and Florida for 52 years, still active in Ohio and Florida. I have had a number of famous cases and was honored to be chosen to close our WW II embassy in Bonn, Germany. I help people. Highly rated on Google and AVVO. I enjoy providing personal service to people. I am a Supreme Court Mentor and teach lawyers for several years. Lecturing around the country in my areas of practice to lawyers and on behalf of publications and at universities was a pleasure. Thank...
