Alan is a trial lawyer who asks himself one question before he finishes any assignment: is there anything I’ve left on the table for my client? His time in law school and in the chambers of state and federal judges taught him what actually persuades a court, and he puts that to work for the people he represents.

Before joining Beck Redden, Alan graduated magna cum laude from Cornell Law School in 2026. At Cornell he earned CALI awards, given for the highest grades in the class, in Constitutional Law, Corporate Taxation, and Middle Eastern Law.

Alan built his advocacy skills in competition during law school. He won Cornell’s Cuccia Cup Moot Court Competition, a competition composed of legal research, writing, and especially oral advocacy. As an Honors Fellow for Legal Writing and Research, he taught first-year students how to research and write about the law. He also served as Publishing Editor of the Cornell International Law Journal, and as Treasurer of both the Muslim Law Students Association and the Middle Eastern North African Law Students Association.

Alan gained firsthand experience in both state and federal court. He interned for Justice Thomas Marcelle of the New York State Supreme Court. He also interned for Senior U.S. District Judge David Alan Ezra, drafting memoranda in cases before the Western District of Texas and the Ninth Circuit, where Judge Ezra holds the record for the most designated sittings in the court’s history. He first came to Beck Redden as a summer associate in 2025, where he supported the firm’s trial lawyers, including on a high-profile trial.

Prior to law school, Alan earned his B.A. in Political Science, with a minor in Arabic Languages and Literatures, from the University of Florida, where he received the Recognition of Excellence Award in Arabic. Alan helped raise more than $10,000 for the Walk to End Alzheimer’s and collect more than 1,000 pounds of canned food for the Bread of the Mighty Food Bank. He continues to support both organizations today.
