This guy is why lawyers have a bad reputation. I even knew he had a reputation as a crook and was still amazed when I consulted here. Now reading these reviews I'm seeing the same stuff we saw in his office. He tries to get you to lie. He also spent half of the consultation talking about all the cases he has won, the books he has written, the judges he knows personally. It was all very creepy. Plus he said the case would cost $10,000 and I would have to make weekly payments. Another attorney I met with showed me that I wasn't even eligible for the things this guy wanted to file for me. I mean he got out the law books and walked me through how it was impossible. Allan had said he could guarantee we would win and he knew secrets about how to get things approved that other lawyers didn't know. He has a real used car salesman vibe. It's weird .

-After charging me $17K he was still asking for more.
-He filed our immigration paperwork with outdated forms which seriously delayed our case.
-This delay cost us thousands. Not to mention that my father passed away while we were stuck in the Philippines.
-Do your homework before hiring anyone. Read their reviews first.
-This guy can’t even remember what day it is when he wakes up in the morning.
-Buyer beware!!!!!

If they had negative stars it would be -5 star rating! Rat serves no one but himself

He wanted me to make up an assylum case, claiming I was in a “youth”group in Mexico. When I got mad that he was telling me to commit fraud he said he can make it seem real and it works. He had these affidavits he wanted my family in Mexico to sign but all the information and names in them were made up. I hired a different lawyer. But then when I went to my court, I saw Alan Bell there with another client claiming that guy was a member of a “youth group.” I was shocked. The judge seemed to know he was a crook because he had heard this same story before. He charges four times what any legitimate immigration lawyer in KC charges. He also talks about how he wins most of his cases. But seeing him in court was embarrassing. It was pretty obvious that he doesn’t win. He just takes people’s money once he gets them to agree to be a fraud.

I got the letter that he is closing down the business, on the day the business closed. Tried calling no one is answering the phone. I have no idea how I'm supposed to get my file.

I have no idea why he waited until the very last minute to inform people about closing his practice. Very unprofessional to the very end

Allan h Bell has scammed me out of 8950$ said he is going out of business do to health reasons I asked him for a refund as he hasn't done nothing on my case but a breef part on my imagination case, so I'm out of my money and a attorney and now my life has just been shattered completely, I definitely will file a complaint with the Missouri bar

Missouri Bar Association!

shady.

Cheated us out of a lot of money. Promised we would win. Said he was friends with the judge. None of that was true. When we got to court it was clear the judge knew he was a crook. I wish I had known.
