Our Story

How we started

Starting a business is no easy feat, with founders often wearing multiple hats. From marketing to product development, sales to administration – founders are faced with the challenge of trying to be experts in wide and varied roles.

Allen Legal was established for this very reason; to support founders and scale-ups with quality legal guidance during their growth journey. We provide founders with the relevant strategic legal counsel for all stages of the business life cycle. We’re here to help with identifying intellectual property and drafting contracts, founder disputes and preparing for exit, and everything in between.

A Note From Our Founder

Legal advice is a risk mitigant – it is necessary for relevant risk factors to be identified, understood and calibrated before meaningful advice can be provided. Having seen many different business models and market sectors I am equipped to quickly and effectively bring this commercial experience to bear when providing advice.

Legal advice may be accurate but without this commercial application, miss the intended mark.

At this stage of my career as a lawyer, I was to help make a difference to a limited group of scaling companies and investors. I will do this by ensuring that the strategic deployment of well-briefed lawyers who ‘get’ the commercial imperatives to clients who understand the benefit of having good legal counsel at their side.
