Jose Allen’s Expertise I have extensive experience in complex litigation in federal and state courts and have represented clients in a wide variety of cases. While I was a partner at Skadden Arps my litigation practice emphasized environmental matters, toxic torts, securities issues, and the defense of companies accused of unfair business practices under California Business and Professions Code 17200. I have represented numerous major public corporations in enforcement actions brought by federal and state agencies alleging violations of environmental laws. I also have defended major companies against suits under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA") law to recover cleanup costs and natural resource damages resulting from contaminated sites. I also have considerable experience representing clients in multi-party settlement negotiations with federal and state agencies to resolve claims for cleanup costs and performance of remedial actions under CERCLA. In addition, I have defended companies against a wide variety of consumer class actions brought under California Business and Professions Code 17200, California False Advertising Law, and the Consumer Legal Remedies Act. I have also defended corporate clients against claims brought by the California Attorney General and private citizens under California Proposition 65. I have considerable experience in international environmental matters as well. In the aftermath of the First Gulf War, I was nominated by the Secretary General of the United Nations to serve as a commissioner on the United Nations Compensation Commission. The commission was established by the United Nations Security Council to provide a mechanism for countries, businesses and individuals to obtain reparations from Iraq for damages suffered as a result of Iraq’s invasion and occupation of Kuwait. I served on a panel that has been responsible for hearing and resolving over 48 billion in claims by governments against Iraq for environmental and natural resource damages resulting from the war. Since retiring as partner from Skadden Arps, I have continued to represent pro bono clients in litigation matters. In particular, I successfully represented plaintiffs in separate class actions against public entities to require them to make the public rights-of-way owned or maintained by public entities accessible to persons with mobility disabilities. In certain jurisdictions, this may be considered attorney advertising.
