Allen Sawyer, Esq., specializes in serious criminal defense and white-collar crime law in Northern California, with his main office headquartered in the Central Valley, a region that includes the cities of Sacramento, Redding, Chico, Stockton, Modesto, Fresno, Visalia, and Bakersfield. After completing his undergraduate education at the University of the Pacific, Attorney Allen Sawyer attended law school at the University of California’s Hastings College of the Law, where he earned his Juris Doctor. He became licensed to practice law in the state of California in 1994. Initially working as a prosecutor in California’s Central Valley, Sawyer served as a deputy district attorney in Stockton, CA, specializing in violent crime prosecutions. Later he was appointed by the Governor of California to run the Governor’s Office of Criminal Justice Planning, which oversaw a 500-million-dollar budget for law enforcement, new criminal justice legislation, and innovative new law enforcement programs. In the second act of his legal career, Sawyer became a defense attorney in Stockton. There he founded his own firm, The Law Offices of Allen Sawyer, in 2003, when he began passionately serving his clients as a criminal defense and personal injury attorney. He is an active member of the State Bar of California. As a former prosecutor, Attorney Allen Sawyer not only understands the processes and techniques of criminal prosecution, but also, as a criminal defense attorney, is uniquely poised to argue for you against prosecution attorneys. Having gained over a decade of criminal defense experience makes Sawyer familiar with both sides of a criminal trial, and well-suited to defend clients facing criminal charges. While Sawyer’s acquittal record speaks for itself, his goal is to help his clients avoid prosecution altogether.
