How we help you take action.

Who (am I)?

I, Kristin A. Allan, was first admitted to the N.Y. Bar in 2003.  In 2005, my husband and I moved from the shores of Long Island to the Centennial State and I have been practicing law in Colorado ever since.  

Where (have I been)?

I began my career working for an insurance defense sole practitioner in Manhattan.  Tucker Holmes, P.C. hired me as a junior associate conditioned upon passing the Colorado bar (which I did).  At Tucker Holmes, under the guidance of excellent mentors, I learned and practiced the skills required of a litigation and coverage attorney. 

Finding I was more suited to insurance coverage work, I refined and focused my practice, moving up to the position of senior associate. When approached with the opportunity of becoming a business owner, I readily accepted. Walberg Allan, PLLC was formed in 2014.

When (did the new chapter begin)?

Effective May 16, 2019, Allan Law, PLLC opened for business!  

What (am I doing at Allan Law, PLLC)?

My focus remains on insurance coverage, insurance declaratory actions, coverage litigation, appeals and fraud investigations. I continue to provide legal opinions and education regarding insurance coverage and defense obligations, claims handling, suspicious claim investigation and examinations under oath in relation to all varieties of insurance policies.

Why (did I create Allan Law, PLLC)?

From my early days working for a sole practitioner, I found the business model a highly effective way to interact with clients and practice the law.  I appreciate all I have learned along the way, and those who have guided and advised me throughout my career.  Now the time has come to challenge myself with this new and exciting endeavor.  And I look forward to working with you as I forge this new path.

In my practice, I view every claim I handle as a puzzle which I must solve.  Interpreting a contract and applying the law to the contract terms and facts of the case are all pieces of the puzzle which need to be pieced together.   No single claim is alike.  I tell my clients, “as the facts (or the contract terms, or the insurance policy language) change, so does the result.” I love the challenge of the puzzle: especially when I have put the last piece into place.  As a business owner, I am fiercely protective of my name and my product.   That means, I take pride in my work, and knowing that in every claim, no matter how large or small, complicated or straight forward, I have put my best effort into the task at hand.
