Excellent Attorney

Mr. Bowman represented me in a civil case. I was wrongly accused and felt I was being railroaded by the legal system. In stepped Mr. Bowman. His representation made the difference. He dissected the witness during trial, exposed her untruths, and demonstrated to the court I was falsely accused. I... was amazed with how completely thorough he is. He left nothing to chance. There is not better attorney. I interviewed several attorneys before selecting Alan Bowman.

Point of Law

Mr. Bowman represented my son on an appellate case. This whole process was an eye opener for me from the hiring of an appellate lawyer to the day of actually seeing Mr. Bowman in action in front of a panel of 3 Judges who didn't seem interested at all in hearing the case. Mr. Bowman was well prepar...ed and answered all questions put to him by the Judges sitting on the appellate court. If you lose a case and thinks it warrants an appeal, I would definitely recommend you ordering the transcripts and allowing Mr. Bowman the chance to present your case for you.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
