Allen E. Hirschmann

I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts (BA) from Lehigh University, and received my Juris Doctorate (JD) from the Washington College of Law of American University in Washington, D.C. I have been in private practice for over 40 years, representing individuals and business clients in various commercial, business, real estate, and litigation matters in both state and federal court in Virginia and Washington, DC.

In addition, for more than twenty (20) years, I have been an Arbitrator with the American Arbitration Association, as well as lead counsel and advocate representing my clients in arbitration proceedings. As an Arbitrator, I act as a judge, and issue an Award setting forth which party has prevailed. My experience as an Arbitrator has proven invaluable to my clients since it continues to enhance my experience by resolving matters involving many different aspects of the law.

I have many years of service volunteering as a conciliator for the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia. As a conciliator, I am requested by the judges to mediate preliminary pretrial matters disputed by the attorneys representing the parties in each case.

In my Long Branch neighborhood in Annandale, Virginia, I formed the civic association (of which I am currently a member), and helped build the community pool and tennis club, which serve several hundred families. As the father of three children, and an avid baseball fan, I formed the Northern Virginia Fall Baseball League for youth ages nine (9) through eighteen (18). I have coached my two sons in Little League baseball, and, over the years, sponsored several Little League teams. Additionally, I supported my daughter when she played soccer, lacrosse, and field hockey as a student at Woodson High School in Fairfax, VA.
