I represent small landlords and tenants. I take time to make sure that cleints understand the probable outcome of their cases and work hard to reach favorable outcomes. This is the bread and butter of my practice; in fact, many other attorneys contact me to answer questions and refer their difficult cases.

Landlord/Tenant

If you are looking for a professional Attorney to evict your tenant, I am strongly recommending Attorney Dustin Bowman. I was refereed to this lawyer and had no ideas he can help me to evict this person who has not paid rent since he moved in for 29 months. Dustin told me pros and cons, how long I ...need to expect eviction. Guess what, He took much less what he told me. Thank you, Dustin. You are the best.

Superb. Gold. Truly five stars.

Dealing with lawyers can be doubtful on top of having stress and uncertainty before thinking of calling lawyer to begin with, but Mr. Bowman was very assuring from the start. The other lawyers I’ve dealt with didn’t give me these calming experiences. He is responsive, works fast, thinks quick, unde...rstands the situation, cares for your needs and guides you to solutions. Every time he solved problems and delivered the outcome I expected. Once he helped me to buy out the business partner who was very manipulative with a simple but effective way. He guided me through each steps and outsmarted the adversary and won effortlessly. He saved me from losing my mind and big sum of money. He also wrote a couple of official letters for me. Each time jobs got done very quickly and he didn’t miss any single points that were important to me in the process and gave me excellent legal advice beyond the letters. You can be confident in his competency. Highly recommended.

Ms Commane

I highly recommend Dustin Bowman. He made us feel confident throughout the entire process. He is extremely knowledgeable and thorough. He guided us through every step clearly. He also went out of his way when certain emergencies arose and advised us promptly.

Excellent Attorney

Mr. Bowman was my attorney for my landlord and tenant case (I was the tenant) and also he was my attorney when I purchased my first home. Mr. Bowman is professional, dependable and very knowledgeable. It was a pleasure working with him and he never missed a phone call or email. We would be on email w...ith each other as early as 6:30am. I highly recommend Mr. Bowman.

Superb Attorney!!!

Wow !!! -That is all I can say. Dustin did a bang up of the job to return my down payment (for over 100K) that was locked by a seller attorney. I was nervous initially but once i retained Dustin I was at ease. Within 2 weeks after hiring Dustin I have received a call from his office to come and p...ick up the check which was my down payment. Simply amazing!!!! if you have any complicated real estate litigation issue- see him . You 'll be pleasantly shocked by his efficiency and the results!!!!
