Richard Allen has practiced law for more than 50 years, with his Lehi-based practice serving clients throughout the state of Utah since 1997.
He holds an AV Preeminent® rating from Martindale-Hubbell — the highest rating for legal ability and ethics, achieved by only about 1% of attorneys nationwide.
Richard limits his practice to the areas where he has deep experience: real estate, water law, business law, natural resources, and estate planning. That focus means clients get thorough, informed representation rather than general-practice guesswork.
Much of Richard's work is about avoiding problems before they start. He helps clients understand the legal risks in a transaction or dispute so they can make informed decisions, and drafts documents clear enough to head off the disagreements that end up in court.
When litigation is necessary, Richard has the trial and negotiation experience to see it through. Other law firms have brought him in as co-counsel or a contract attorney for matters that call for his specific expertise.
