Hawk Allen, Esq.

I completed my undergraduate degree in anthropology and creative writing, participated in a graduate program in criminal justice, and received my law degree, from the University of Memphis. While attending the Cecil C. Humphrey's School of law I volunteered hundreds of hours to pro bono legal service, including assisting Memphians obtain expungement of some or all of their criminal record. Upon completion of law school, I began working for a civil litigation firm for 2-3 years, but eventually I endeavored to begin practice in the criminal law arena. I obtained an appointment as an Assistant Public Defender, where I am currently employed. My wife Alexandria Allen is, likewise, an Assistant Public Defender.

This page is a personal biography page only. This page and the content therein has no relation to my employment or employer and is personally provided and funded by myself for my own private purposes and activities.

This page is not a solicitation or an offer of any legal service or advice. As an Assistant Public Defender, I can only be appointed by a Court to a criminal defendant, and thus, I am not available for hire by the general public. I cannot accept clients, civil or criminal, or provide any legal service or advice to anyone that I am not appointed to, so please do not contact me for such purpose.
