SACRAMENTO — Bruce Allen, a founding partner of one of Sacramento’s largest law firms, died Saturday after a recent illness. He was 88.
In 1953, Allen joined with attorneys Martin McDonough, Milton Schwartz and Henry Teichert to form McDonough, Schwartz, Allen & Teichert, a Sacramento firm that developed a reputation for work in real estate, water and energy law. Two years later the firm merged with Holland and Wahrhaftig and finally, in 1979, adopted its present-day name of McDonough Holland & Allen.
