LWV News:

The League of Women Voters (LWV) community event Lunch with a Leader is noon to 1 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 16 via Zoom.

Los Alamos Municipal Judge Elizabeth Kelly Allen is the featured speaker.

Judge Allen was born in Utah, the 10th child in her family. She met her husband Matthew while finishing her law degree at Pepperdine School of Law in Malibu, Calif.

After graduation they moved to Idaho where she opened her own law firm, E.K. Allen Law. Allen has worked as a criminal prosecutor and defense attorney, handled special education law, real estate, estate planning, business formation, child protection and post-conviction appeals.

When her husband’s job as a golf course superintendent brought them and their two children to Los Alamos County seven years ago, Allen said she felt she was finally coming home. They soon added a third child to their family.

Judge Allen also teaches Business Law at UNM-Los Alamos and runs Pueblo Canyon Inn with her husband.

She also serves as board chair for the Pajarito Educational Education Center and is a member of Los Alamos JJAB.

In the past, Allen has volunteered with the Family Strengths Network, Los Alamos Strategic Tourism Task Force, Lodgers’ Tax Board and played the string bass in the Los Alamos Symphony Orchestra.

With the onset of COVID-19, Judge Allen has made major changes to the organization and functioning of the Court. She will be discussing those changes and other improvements instituted since she was elected judge in 2018 as well as future enhancements planned for the Court.
