Allan G. King combines his expertise in employment law with his prior experience as a labor economist to handle statistical issues that typically arise in class action and "pattern and practice" cases. He assesses clients' practices involving hiring, promotion and pay and proposed reductions-in-force for adverse impact.
In these efforts, Allan works closely with testifying and consulting experts in economics and statistics, and his experience as a labor economist permits him to identify the experts best suited to a particular matter. He also is uniquely equipped to effectively rebut opposing expert testimony and, in several cases, has filed successful Daubert motions attacking expert testimony.
Additionally, Allan is a frequent speaker on continuing legal education programs. He is board certified in labor and employment law by the State Bar of Texas Board of Legal Specialization.
