Kathleen joined Allen, Allen, Allen & Allen in 2007 and works in the firm’s Fredericksburg office.

This organization provides lawyers for criminal defendants who cannot afford legal representation. Kathleen also serves as an adjunct professor at Strayer University where she is designing a curriculum for a degree in Criminal Justice.
