About Allison R.
Allison R. Colon earned a B.B.A. from Loyola University Chicago in 1996 and a J.D. from Emory University in 1999. She completed a traditional course of study in business and law before moving into practice. The combination of a business undergraduate degree and a law degree informs how she approaches legal problems.
After law school, Colon built a practice that spans two state jurisdictions. She is licensed to practice in Mississippi and Texas. Over the years she has taken on matters that require attention to both procedural detail and practical outcomes. Colleagues describe her as careful in analysis and direct in courtroom presentation.
Her title is counsel at Bland & Partners, where she joined the firm as part of a legal team handling regional matters. In that role she prepares filings, handles client consultations, and participates in dispute resolution. The counsel position places her in a supportive and advisory capacity for cases that reach the trial or transactional stages.
Colon’s educational background in business remains a touchstone in her work. It informs how she evaluates contracts, assesses risk and structures negotiations. She applies that framework whether the matter involves litigation or transactional advice. Clients and other lawyers who have worked with her note that she prioritizes clarity in written work and a steady, organized approach to deadlines.
Her practice covers legal work across Mississippi and Texas. That geographic span requires familiarity with two sets of procedural rules and local practice norms. Colon manages those differences by maintaining active ties in each jurisdiction and coordinating with local counsel when necessary.
Outside of direct casework she contributes to the firm’s internal strategy for handling cross-jurisdictional matters. She assists in preparing teams for hearings and aligning discovery plans across state lines. Her role helps ensure that cases proceed efficiently when they touch both Mississippi and Texas.
She continues to serve as counsel at Bland & Partners, where her current practice focuses on legal matters across Mississippi and Texas.
