Our Firm
The Firm of Allred, Bacon, Halfhill & Young, PC is now age ten and counting!  Each of the principals had several years of practice in other firms prior to our association under this banner, but are now happily ensconced.  We each can concentrate on areas of our choosing, knowing our colleagues are in full support
 
A Team Approach...
 
At Allred, Bacon, Halfhill & Young, PC, we often use a team approach when solving our clients' problems. This allows us to take advantage of  the diverse training, experience and backgrounds of our attorneys.
 
This approach provides you with a broad range of thought, legal experience and plain old common sense, and results in greater communications and interaction between us.
 
Working together as a team for our clients yields very favorable results.
 
Our peers have rated us one of the best law firms in Northern Virginia, Southern Maryland, and the District of Columbia (as reflected in our 'av' rating from Martindale Hubbell)  We have earned this standing through many years of successful client service, through hard work, and, most of all, through a pool of competence. It is our experience, both as individuals and as a team, that lets us represent you so successfully.
 
Service Philosophy Focused On Your Needs...
 
It is our goal to provide a full range of legal services to businesses, individuals and families in the Washington metropolitan area and nationally.  Our commitment is to effective and efficient representation which is neither impersonal nor exorbitant. The diverse backgrounds and broad range of legal experience of our attorneys and staff allows us to serve almost every client need, and to offer the highest level of professionalism and integrity. We are usually retained on an hourly basis, although a negotiated fee or a fee based on a percentage of the recovery is often appropriate. The cost of quality legal representation is not insignificant, but we are determined to instill in each client the conviction that they have received the full value of services commensurate with the expense.
 
A Word about our Fees...
 
The old saying 'you get what you pay for,' applies equally well to professions such as law and medicine, that directly affect the health and well-being of you and those you love.  There is wisdom in not just picking the lowest priced bidder, but rather in selecting the law firm most qualified to meet your needs. Our professional fees may not always be the lowest, but neither are they the highest. We believe there are other, better ways to reduce our clients' overall legal expenses that do not jeopardize the successful outcome of the case.
 
Some of the steps we take to hold down fees include:
  • We keep a 'real world' perspective. We recognize someone must ultimately pay our fees and that people and organizations have limited resources to spend.
  • We discuss up front the estimated cost of our services.
  • We will notify you in advance and get your approval to proceed, if a particular expense or activity will exceed your predetermined limit.
  • We review each bill for accuracy and reasonableness before it is mailed.  Even so, occasional errors are inevitable; we promise to pursue any inquiry, and make it right. 
  • We assign certain tasks to associate attorneys and paralegals when circumstances permit, to reduce the hourly rate; all work is supervised by experienced attorneys.
  • We watch overhead closely. Our offices are not lavish, and our business practices are conservative..
Because we want you to remain our client for many years, we do all we can to make our services as cost effective as possible.
 
Offices Are Always Open To You
 
Our offices are always open to you and our staff is always ready to help. We are large enough to handle all your legal needs, yet small enough to appreciate that you have chosen us to be your legal advisers.
