Jennifer L. Allen

Jennifer Allen has a dual focus on litigation and mediation, bringing to both her belief that a reasoned resolution is usually a better outcome for clients and parties than protracted litigation.

Jennifer efficiently produces results for her clients in a variety of business litigation matters. Jennifer combines her legal knowledge with a background in the insurance industry. Prior to law school, she acted as a team leader in a large claims department, which allows her to take a particularly pragmatic and venturous approach in her current practice.

As a mediator, Jennifer firmly believes that resolution through mediation is almost always preferable to the continued monetary cost, uncertainty, risk, and emotional toil of protracted litigation. Having successfully navigated her own clients through both bench and jury trials, Jennifer knows all too well the unpredictability of allowing third parties to govern a client’s fate, and she also recognizes the toll litigation can take on clients.

Before entering private practice, Jennifer worked as a judicial clerk for the Arizona Court of Appeals for Honorable Garye Vasquez.  She researched and wrote numerous civil and criminal decisions and opinions, including ones dealing with breach of contract and election challenges.  She also attended oral argument and weekly discussion calendar with three-judge panel.  Jennifer is proud to have participated in the 2019 session of Ladder Down, an intensive one-year leadership and business development program for women lawyers.

Experience

Last year, Jennifer successfully defended two clients through jury trials, resulting in defense verdicts that saved her clients hundreds of thousands of dollars in potential jury verdicts.

Jennifer has also obtained numerous favorable settlements for her clients, including a key settlement where she was able to protect her client from a potential multi-million dollar judgment, and a de minimis settlement of less than $10,000 of an employment-related claim brought against another client, a fraction of what the plaintiff had demanded.

In addition, Jennifer obtained a successful settlement allowing her client to rescind several agreements which would have prevented the client from doing business with a large number of customers.
