Alison has experience in alternative dispute resolution, which provides clients the opportunity to resolve their issues in a more private and cost-effective manner. Regardless of the medium, Alison devotes considerable time, care, and thorough attention to each case.

Her curiosity and inquisitive nature means she enjoys the process of dissecting and analyzing complex issues to find new ways to add value to clients.

Prior to law school, Alison completed her Masters of Arts at the prestigious University of Chicago, a challenging program that helped Alison develop outstanding writing skills and the ability to construct arguments with intellectual rigor and thorough research. Together with Alison’s strong work ethic, grit and determination, these attributes make her a strong litigator for our clients.
