Michael Stephen Bowser Jr.

Mike Bowser’s incredible knowledge of the intricacies of the state DUI laws, and astute demeanor in the courtroom, was no match for the prosecution. Mike is incredibly experienced in all phases of the trial process. He was extremely comforting to me as we went over the details of the case, explaine...d my options, and discussed the Bowser Law zero tolerance regarding client confidentiality. Mike scrutinizes every detail during Jury selection, and the rapport he established with the Jury as he engages them in the trial was amazing to watch. He was extremely professional and respectful with all members of the courtroom, and had an incredible aura of confidence in his work about him. His expertise in presenting photos from the scene and the breakdown of additional evidence seized severely weakened the prosecution’s case. Mike is an incredibly likeable, professional, and knowledgeable attorney, a true EXPERT in his field, and I owe him dearly.

After much research and consideration of many highly regarded and refutable DUI/DWI defense attorneys, I retained Mr. Bowser based on his excellent reputation, experience and knowledge of the laws/intricacies in the DUI/DWI realm, and his willingness to take the time to explain the process and how h...e would handle your case from start to finish. Attorney Bowser took the time to listen to my case, understand the intricate details of the night of the traffic stop and night, and then honestly explained the charges, potential defense strategies, and the likely outcomes. Attorney Bowser is the expert in Massachusetts when it comes to DUI/DWI law, he was always fully prepared, kept me updated of the process, and was always updated with the latest DWI/DUI rules + methodology. We worked together collaboratively to develop a defense strategy that would best represent my not-guilty plea. He was diligent in examining every possibility of getting the breathalyzer results excluded, in the end he prevailed, and the evidence against me was expelled. During the jury trial, Attorney Bowser was masterful, he was extremely professional and related the important facts to the jury, explained the flaws in the prosecution’s case, and made the best possible defense of my charge to the individual jury members. He was respectful and thorough in his examination of the officer’s testimony, and he relied on his knowledge of the DUI process to discredit the testimony without offending the officer. Attorney Bowser diligently worked to earn a not-guilty verdict for my second offense DUI charge, and earned my trust 100 times over. He is a dedicated, honest, forthright, and highly skilled attorney. I recommend him highly and without reservation whatsoever.

I would like to heartily thank Mike Bowser for being my counsel in this very important case which would have impacted my career enormously. Imagine if you belong to such a sensitive career which ends if even you get 1 DUI on record, trust me it ends your entire effort of 10-15 yrs. It was the worst n...ight of my life when I was pulled over on a cold NH highway during my vacation while visiting friends of mine and trying to get back to hotel. Of course, when I was charged with DUI by the officer after the TESTs and handed over the summons I was devastated. I was a complete stranger in this state, knew no one. I came back, thought and thought what just happened. Being a professional who can face serious consequences if found to be convicted with DUI, it was the worst time of my life. I was not even in a position to ask around for any capable attorney in NH as it would have sounded danger bells for my career even before the outcomes of the case. I started my research over the internet, called top lawyers in this field to get info but was confused at end as did not know anyone personal. Being resident of a distant state, it was difficult for me to meet with them face to face as I believe it helps if you can meet with the lawyer in person to get an idea how diligent will he be to defend you in this worst case which people like me can get charged with. Following my list of top choices, I called Mike`s office, left a message with his secretary and he called me back within an hour from his home. He listened to my case in a very discrete professional way realizing that I am very tense and nervous for more than an hour and explained to me about my charges and what strategies he can devise to defend me. He discussed systematically all the events with me for an hour during the very first call without even having any surety that I will hire him. At the end of that conversation when I mentioned that I am really confused what should I do? he replied, “there are many great top lawyers to represent you in NH and you can pick anyone from your list (I shared with him the list of lawyers I called before him) as they all are capable of defending you”. That was a very bold statement which as per my experience can only come from a very qualified, experienced, hardworking and very competent professional. I decided to go with Mike Bowser and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life without any reservation. Attorney Bowser does not only know the DUI law, he knows how to use it also which I was looking for as I wanted master of DUI, not the jack of all. I found him sternly yet pleasantly professional, fully aware of the process, in control of situation, updated with recent DUI methodology and result oriented by every mean possible. I did tell him that I can’t afford to lose from the start and he didn’t let me down. Owing to sensitivity of my career, he ensured my privacy would be maintained and no stone will be left unturned. His strong counsel let me through all the proceedings in a very respectful manner. He filed timely motions with great knowledge after listening to whatever recollections I had from my DUI scene. At end, I was shocked how he pulled out the successful results through active negotiations with prosecutor and system. He got the evidence against me expelled and it was like achieving the impossible. I must say that I don’t know how he achieved this great success but hats off to his strategy. I truly cherish his professional and ethical attitude. I have no reservation to state that I found Attorney Bowser to be timid, reachable, comprehensive, diligent and up to date with DUI laws.

Mike and I endured 12 difficult months of my trial being postponed. In the end, he was prepared and determined to defend every detail of my case. We worked together collaboratively to develop a defense strategy that would best represent my not-guilty plea. Mike is a lawyer that knows how to relate... important facts to a jury. He is very knowledgable and able to think quickly on his feet in a court room environment. He is a trustworthy lawyer that will work hard to defend your case.

I was in a position where I needed a lawyer to defend me in a DWI case. Being from Chelmsford myself I knew Mike and his family from growing up in town and going to school with his sister and being a couple a years ahead of Mike. I also knew his younger brother as I was his J.V. hockey coach. This f...amily connection actually made me feel apprehensive. However, I am a daily reader of the Lowell Sun and knew Mike had represented some high profile clients in the area and had proven them not guilty in DWI trials in the past. I spoke with two of his clients and they could not say enough good things about him. I also spoke with some "heavy hitters" or "people in the know" down at Lowell District Court who also said that Mike was the BEST lawyer around. I called Mike and set up an appointment. After calming me down and reassuring me everything was confidential, Mike agreed to take me on as his client at a reasonable price. I told Mike the truth about me and my situation warts and all. I was completely HONEST with him. He in return was completely HONEST with me and most of all I felt he was not judging me nor did I feel anything said in his office was going to make it out of that office. This was extremely important to me. Mike explained to me my options very clearly and thoroughly. I did some checking with the Registry after and he was completely right in everything he told me. I had 3 or 4 options and Mike did not "push" me into what would be easiest for him. Nor did he sugarcoat the seriousness of my situation if we went to trial. I chose to go to trial. Mike kept me updated and informed of the process all the way up to the day of the trial. Mike even visited the scene of my alleged DWI, taking pictures and making himself aware of being at the actual scene and what allegedly took place. The day before the trial Mike spoke with me and told me what to where, what time to get there and what to expect. The day of the trial Mike kept me calm told me to be quiet and he would do his best. I knew he had a 70 percent "not guilty" rate but you still never know. During the trial I actually felt bad for the prosecuter and the police officer who testified. Mike blew both of them out of the water with his professionalism and his cross examination of the police officer had the police officer tied up in knots.( I think the police officer left there wondering what just happened to him!) I also forgot to mention the jury selection. Mike was able to quickly read the prospective jurors profiles and was able to get rid of any potential juror that might have been biased towards me.I was very comfortable with the jury Mike had selected for me. In the end after just 25 minutes of deliberation, I was found "NOT GUILTY". I shook Mike's hand and could not thank him enough. Mike Bowser is the BEST lawyer,especially for DWI's, in the state. Sincerely, Sean
