As stated in a prior post, we decided to shorten the name of the firm from “Gibbons, Neuman, Bello, Segall, Allen & Halloran, P.A.” to “Gibbons | Neuman.” Since that time, we have been reintroducing you to our great team of lawyers ready and able to help you.
One of those lawyers is Elizabeth P. Allen.
