Allen Tanner BEST ATTORNEY EVER!!! Mr. Tanner represented my son on an assault case that occurred in high school, this case proceeded over a year, and Mr. Tanner attended every court date even when I had no money to pay him. Thanks to Mr. Tanner the case was dismissed, and my son is excelling in college. Mr. Tanner, if you are out there; thanks for believing in my son, and most of all, thanks for justice!!!

I had a case against me for a false report. I got Allen Tanner who was referred to me from a friend. The DA was pushing for a fine and 100 days in jail. We keep post ponding the courts dates and Mr. Tanner kept me informed at to what was happening on his end. He always returned my phone calls if he missed them and never misinformed me of anything. MR. Tanner talked to the judge and got me off with just a small fine. I would recommend Mr. Tanner to anyone for anything. He is very intelligant at what he does for a living.

My name is Larry Dean Jr my case was theft of check fraud. Allen Tanner was so effective and it was a weird case but just by his merits alone got my case dismissed,and my back ground clean. I would recommend Mr Allen Tanner to anyone for any reason if you need a defendant. He will fight for your rights and i assure you victory.

Mr. Tanner was my court appointed lawyer for a probation violation (felony drug possession was original charge) back in 2005/2006. He worked harder (and had better results) than the lawyer I paid 5,000$ for. Allen Tanner worked hard to ensure the jail would administer my medication they had been neglecting to give me. He really cares and works for his clients.

I was charged with possession of an illegal drug, but Allen didnt judge me but fought for me. He showed up to all my court dates on time, and was always easy to talk to. After a few rescheduled court dates, Allen fought for my case and got it dropped completely. Allen is not only a great lawyer, but a great person. I recommend him over any lawyer in Houston.

I'm a 42 yr old African American male. My problems started 24 yrs ago, at the age of 17. I first met Mr. Tanner after making a request to the Judge to replace the court appointed attorney, who couldn’t seem to stop resetting my court case while I sat in the county jail. The judge then assigned Mr. Allen Tanner to my case. Mr. Tanner was Knowledgeable, and very concerned about the charges that were filed against me in the Felony District Court 178th I was being accused of injury to a child, and after hearing the facts about what really happened, Mr. Tanner knew the only way to get this behind me was to bring the case to trial. After preparations and getting the facts and witnesses together a trial date was scheduled. The day of the Trial Mr. Tanner astound the jury with nothing but the truth and facts of this case. The Former Houston City Council Member Joe Roach, who at the time was the prosecuting attorney had to Acknowledge Mr. Tanner’s Professionalism and passion for the case. I can remember palms sweating heart racing and about to faint when the jury had decided. The verdict came quickly, it was less than an hour when Joe Roach whispered to Allen "I think you got this one". The Jury came out and read the verdict... NOT GUILTY. I couldn’t really think at the time with so much going on. What I could remember is the Jury being very upset with the prosecuting attorney, I still remember Joe Roach standing in front of the Jury hands stretched out saying " I was only doing my Job" In a separate incident while being incarcerated in the county jail awaiting trial for the injury to a child case, I was accused/charged of assaulting an officer. Bottom line, I didn’t do it. I was the one who was assaulted by three officers. After the incident actually happened the Sargent on duty ask both me and the officers what happened. After explaining that the officer who actually initiated the assault to me, not only assaulted me, but used racial slurs, the Sargent on duty turned his back and said "Right'em up". A Right-Up, at that moment I thought that meant loss of privileges or no visitations. A day later I heard my name being called and received an indictment hand delivered thru the bars of the Harris County Jail by the same Sargent who was in charge the day of the incident. “Here we go again I thought” I guess Deputy Leal the other two jailers and the Sargent may have thought this would be an open and shut case, simply because when it came time to bring this issue to court Officer/Deputy Leal was sitting in the court room, I can remember he had a devilish smile on his face when he saw me shackled being escorted in. I noticed how that smiled turned upside down when they all found out who my Attorney was. When Allen Tanner walked in something happened, not for sure what it was but he said the D.A wanted to talk to me, I agreed. She specifically asked, what would you like to do, I replied and said I have a lawyer and I'm sure we're gonna try this case in front of a jury have you spoken to my Lawyer, she replied and said that’s why I'm talking to you Sir. Bottom line to make a long story short the case never made it to trial, it was dismissed I keep a Certified Copy of the Disposition of these cases to remind me of how lucky I was to have been a client of Mr. Allen Tanner, and if all this isn’t enough to show the Virtue, Courage ,Diligence and Tenacity of this criminal Defense Attorney then I don’t know what else to say. Oh wait, maybe I do. All this happened over 24 yr's ago, and back then I was 17 yr's old indigent and didn’t have the money, Allen Tanner at the time was a Court appointed attorney. The only other thing I can say is you can trust this Lawyer. Remember If he's your attorney let Mr.Tanner do what he's experienced at doing …..winning cases or getting the best legal results Possible in your FAVOR.

Mr. Tanner is one of the most well respected attorneys in town. I asked around when deciding who to hire for my case, and not one attorney or judge had a bad word to say about Mr. Tanner. He did a great job representing me, and always kept me in the loop. He was easy to get ahold of, and truly wants the best for his clients. Everyone in the courthouse knows Mr. Tanner, and respects him. He is the most kind hearted man I have ever met, and is a fantastic attorney.

I came to Mr Tanner Back in 2008. I was charged with a felony theft case. I have never been in any other trouble prior till. Mr Tanner brought me into his friendly atmosphere and re assured me that his experience in such manners would benefit me greatly. I told Mr Tanner I would never do such a criminal offense such as that and he looked at me eye to eye and said Tobe I believe you. With that statement I knew this great attorney would go to court on my behalf and battle such a horrible charge. The prosecutor tried several times to get me to plea bargin. We turned it down. Mr Tanner was ready to go to trial. This was my first time in the criminal justice system. We trialed this case before a jury. Mr Tanner in his wisdom prevailed! I was found innocent in 2 hours. My record was espounged and cleared from my criminal history. This attorney has to be one of the best in Houston Tx. Thanks again for giving me my life back!!! Tobe Johnson client for life.
