Established Lincoln law firm will continue Delavan legal practice

[May 08, 2019]  

Woods & Bates P.C. of Lincoln, Illinois, has entered into an agreement to acquire Culbertson & Allen, LLC, located in Delavan, Illinois.

After decades of practicing law in Delavan with the firm of Culbertson & Allen, LLC, attorney Mark Allen has decided to transition to retirement. Allen joined the firm in 1977 and has practiced exclusively in the Delavan office since that time.

William "Blinn" Bates, Jr. and Michael T. Fleshman of Woods & Bates P.C. in Lincoln, Illinois, have reached an agreement with Allen, the sole owner of Culbertson & Allen, LLC, to acquire the Delavan firm.

Woods & Bates will continue to provide the same high-quality legal services that businesses and individuals have come to expect from Culbertson & Allen and will continue to operate at the same Delavan office location where John T. Culbertson, Jr., began practicing law in his hometown in 1916.

Blinn and Michael extend their sincere congratulations to Mark on his distinguished career and his transition to retirement. The attorneys of Woods & Bates are excited to continue the storied legacy of the attorneys who came before them, both in Lincoln and in Delavan, and to expand the law firm’s footprint with a second office location in Delavan. During Mark’s transition to retirement, the attorneys of Woods & Bates are available for client appointments in the Lincoln office (217-735-1234) or the Delavan office (309-244-8204).

Woods & Bates P.C. is a general practice law firm located in Lincoln, Illinois. For more than 45 years, Woods & Bates has provided a range of high-quality legal services to businesses and individuals throughout Logan County and beyond.
