About Allison Kruk

Allison Kruk Ormond educated at two Ivy League schools. She earned her undergraduate diploma at Princeton University and finished her law degree at the University of Pennsylvania Law School. Those years set the course for a practice cut up between family matters and criminal defense.

She began her legal work in public defense. In 2020 she served as a law clerk in the Office of the Public Defender of New Jersey. The knowledge offered courtroom publicity and case preparation work early in her career. The following yr she joined the Defenders Association of Philadelphia within the Probation and Alternative Sentencing Unit, the place she handled things tied to penalty determination alternatives and supervised release problems.

Ormond moved into private practice after those public defender roles. In 2022 she worked as a household regulation lawyer at William Kirby Law, taking over custody, support, and associated domestic things. In 2023 she joined Jones & Ortiz and split her time between household and criminal cases. Those positions added civil litigation and client advocacy in both bench and jury contexts.

In 2024 she took on the title of Managing Lawyer at Ormond Law. In that position she oversees casework and day-to-day operations whilst continuing to seem in courtroom. The managing role has her juggling client intake, courtroom calendars, and coordination with investigators and specialists when cases require them.

Outside the court she holds a Court Appointed Special Advocate certification from the National CASA/GAL Association for Children. That qualification ties into so much of her household regulation practice, particularly in contested custody and dependency matters. She is certified to practice in Pennsylvania and New Jersey and is a member of the New Jersey State Bar.

Her strategy to clients is practical and straightforward. She draws on early public defender work when handling criminal protection, and on her household regulation practice when addressing baby welfare or support problems. The blend of public and private sector experience informs how she assesses plea offers, resolution opportunities, and trial preparation.

She practices from Ormond Law and handles both courtroom work and client counseling. Her current practice at Ormond Law facilities on family regulation and felony protection.
