My Highest Recommendation
My DUI case was among the hundreds that were awaiting the results of the Draeger Breathalyzer ruling in Massachusetts. Due to the incredible work of Mike and the other attorneys who challenged the Draeger’s reliability, my breath test was not included as evidence during the bench trial. My case...

THE BEST
4.5 yrs ago I was facing a 2nd OUI charge. On a referral from a friend, I met with Attorney Bowser. From the beginning I was confident that I would have him represent me. Attorney Bowser goes above and beyond! He was able to find something in my file concerning my first offense and the possibility...

Professional Attorney doing his best for the Client!
Attorney Mike Bowser was recommended to me over five (5) years ago and it was a great decision to go with him for defending me against an OUI charge. There were many things happening in MA over the years and Mike stayed on top of everything, as well as, updated me personally or through his office se...

Simply the Best!
I had a DUI in NH a long time ago, it would've been a 1 year jail sentence, but Mike and his firm did an outstanding job of getting it reduced to a lessor charge. Now I am on the verge of getting my licence to drive. He and his associates are very professional. His knowledge about the OUI/DUI laws wa...
"I endorse this lawyer. I have had the privilege of watching Mike Bowser both in educational lectures and at trial. He is excellent. The feedback I have received from people I have referred to him has consistently come back as extremely satisfied. His reputation generally is top notch, and deservedly so."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have been a colleague of Michael Bowser for many years, and I know from handling cases against him as a prosecutor and watching him as a fellow criminal defense attorney that he is a highly skilled and effective criminal defense attorney. I have watched him go to trial in what appeared to be a very difficult case and obtain an acquittal (not guilty verdict) on behalf of his client. His knowledge of criminal law, especially DWI/DUI law, as well as his practice in both New Hampshire and Massachusetts, makes him uniquely able to handle case that involve both states. He is an incredibly experienced and successful trial attorney, and I would feel more than comfortable referring any client to Attorney Bowser."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have seen Attorney Bowser in action and can honestly say he is a top flight attorney. He cares about his clients as seen by the numerous cases he has taken to a jury trial and receiving not guilty's. It is with great pleasure that I endorse Attorney Bowser."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Mike for many years and found that he is one of the most resourceful and hardest working attorneys in the area of criminal defense. When I was a prosecutor, I always spent extra time on the cases that I had against Mike because I knew that his knowledge of the law, preparation and tireless effort would be amongst the best. I believe that Mike is one of the best DWI attorneys in Massachusetts and would recommend him without hesitation."
"I have known Mike for many years, both in and out of the court room. He is a top notch trial lawyer. Mike is one of the most knowlegeable DWI attorneys around. He is an aggressive, hard working and dedicated advocate for his clients. This shows through in the great work and great results he gets for his clients."
"Mike is an outstanding DUI lawyer who I have seen in court and can say that he is extremely effective in front of juries and is well respected by judges throughout Massachusetts. Mike became Board Certified in DUI defense which is an extremely difficult honor to achieve. I would highly recommend him for anyone charged with DUI."
"Being a 10+ year, sustaining, lifetime member of the National College for DUI Defense, having attended over two dozen national DUI/DWI training seminars, I have been privileged to get to know many of our nation's finest DUI/DWI attorneys. Michael Bowser is without question amongst this group. I would not hesitate to refer a loved one of mine to him. In short, I proudly endorse Michael Stephen Bowser, Jr.! The fact he is also a friend and fellow colleague is but a bonus."
"Dedicated. Knowledgeable. Professional. Aggressive. Gutsy. All of these adjectives positively reflect Attorney Bowser. He has earned a true national reputation in defending the citizen among us who has been accused of a crime. I trust him. You will too. He is a true trial attorney."
"Mike Bowser is a skilled DWI defense attorney with an exhaustive knowledge of the law and science of DWI. He works tirelessly to find new and creative ways to win his client’s cases. I strongly recommend Mike to anyone in Massachusetts facing a DWI charge."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. I referred a very difficult DUI case to Mike which involved a man accused of driving into a building while intoxicated. Mike tried the case before a jury and obtained an acquittal despite these very bad facts. The client called me to thank me for giving him Mike's name. He said that Mike's cross examination was "smoking" and that Mike clearly knew much more than the officer about police procedure and the tests that were given to the client by the officer."
"Mike is a hard working and creative defender. I have attended some of the most advanced trainings with him and know he has the ability to win the tough cases."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. I have sent numerous clients to Attorney Bowser over the years...all who have been very satisfied with the manner in which their cases were handled. Mike is my first choice when referring out a DWI or personal injury matter. He is professional and courteous and has been a pleasure to work with."
