She has handled cases in a variety of areas, including personal injury, premises liability, product liability, medical malpractice, healthcare, labor and employment, and commercial litigation matters. Allison returned to private practice in 2024 after serving as an Assistant United States Attorney with the Department of Justice for nearly four years.
