Allen also has extensive experience in handling appeals in all appellate courts. For a recent example, see State v. Yencer, 696 S.E.2d 875 (2010), raising a First Amendment challenge to the exercise of police power by the Davidson College Campus Police. http://caselaw.findlaw.com/nc-court-of-appeals/1535309.htmlAllen was born and raised just outside of Charlotte in Denver, NC and his distinguished undergraduate and law school career at UNC included induction into the Phi Eta Sigma honor society and being awarded the prestigious Morehead Scholarship.

After several postponements due to Covid, Knox Law was able to have the reckless driving charge dismissed.
Excellent to work with. We were kept abreast on everything. Would highly recommend him and his staff. Awesome!
I hired Allen Brotherton to represent me in trial regarding a 50 C No contact order against me. Not only did he get it dismissed, he was able to win the counter claim against the other party because she was harassing me. I was very satisfied with Allen's performance in court and out of court before and after the trial hearing. I would highly recommend him to others.
After moving to North Carolina, I wasn't sure who to turn to when looking for a defense attorney for my case. I was referred to Allen and I was not disappointed. Both him and Sherry were phenomenal to work with. They were both responsive and transparent throughout the entire process and kept me up to date on all matters regarding the case. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose Allen every time. He is the best attorney I have ever worked with by far! Thank you Allen and Sherry!
Our family has been using Allen Brotherton for over 15 years now and EVERY SINGLE TIME HE DOES BETTER THAN I COULD EVEN HOPE FOR!! Not only does he get my case handled he got my court costs way reduced! He’s AMAZING!!!
After receiving my first traffic ticket, I contacted Allen's office with a million questions and worries about how this speeding ticket could affect my license and insurance. Sherry was absolutely amazing through the entire process of hiring Allen and getting the ticket resolved. She was incredibly patient and gave thorough answers to all of my many questions. Allen was able to get my ticket significantly reduced and my court costs and fees reduced as well. This was the best possible outcome for me and I truly recommend Allen and Sherry to anyone else who finds themselves with a speeding ticket.
Allen and Sherry were professional friendly. Provided exceptional service and kepted us informed all along the way. Thank you!
By far one of the best, easiest, most professional, and overall customer care legal experience I have ever had. Alan and his team took great care and thorough due diligence with my case and handled it quickly and painlessly going above and beyond any experience I've ever had.
I have known Allen and his paralegal Sherry since I was 16 years old due to various unfortunate legal issues over the past 22 years of my life. Allen has treated every case as a new case, as it should be. He is very genuine and makes you feel like everything is going to be okay. Allen is simply there to defend his client to the fullest extent of the law, no matter the severity of the case. Allen has one goal from the word go and that is to get the best, most logical outcome for his clients. The majority of the time this includes getting a dismissal or better yet winning! He clearly has a passion for helping people and he is the best I’ve ever met at doing such. I can’t thank you enough Allen & Sherry!
Allen has worked several legal issues for me and I have never been disappointed. I have avoided a lot of insurance points! I highly recommend him and his team for all issues requiring any legal assistance! You will be happy you did!
