The best in town

He is by far the best attorney in the area. He is so thorough and thinks of everything to give you the absolute best defense. If your looking to avoid jail time go with the best.

Highly recommend for traffic violations.

The consultation was thorough, gathering the facts and timeline that they then used to evaluate my case. The result was a plan and they took immediate action through phone and email with the prosecutor. He recommended that I show good faith by paying the legitimate fines which when combined with his ...analysis, resulted in the dismissal of the remaining charges and trial. This saved me time away from work and limited my fees

Outstanding!

Mr. Bours is extremely knowledgeable & definitely knows what he is doing. We've spent about 6 months going over my DUI/DWI case, gathering all the necessary information. He was always on top of absolutely everything; making sure I got the correct reports I needed, getting my interlock installed befor...e court, taking the classes that I needed, etc.. His pricing is reasonable & he is willing to work on a payment plan with you. He is also very reliable. I never had a problem setting a date & time to meet up to speak with him. His partner, Farzan, was also very helpful! When Mr. Bours wasn't available, he stepped in & was able to assist me. Everything worked out better than we planned! I had court on Tuesday, May 23rd & he worked his magic!! I was found NOT guilty! Paid some fines & went about my way. I wouldn't hesitate to hire either of them as my lawyer again! (Hopefully I don't need to) Haha... Thank you both for all of your help! I really appreciate everything.

Best Lawyer in Rockville!

Mr. Bours is an incredibly competent and effective attorney. I was pleased with how responsive he was to my needs, even responding to my emails and/or phone calls on the weekend and any hour of the day or night. I had many cases through out the years with multiple issues from traffic to criminal and ...he made sure my needs were met. I was always pleased with my results. I have been a bondsman for many year and met people who were in need of an attorney for all kinds of criminal case and have referred these individuals to Mr. Bours with excellent result as well. I will continue to use Mr. Bours for all my legal needs!

Criminal/Civil Litigation

Mr. Bours represented me last year in a case which was very complex and emotionally taxing. I was starting a divorce through a family law attorney when my soon-to-be ex-wife falsely accused me of a crime. I had consulted with Mr. Bours prior to this and my family law attorney had also worked with him... in the past. When I reached out to him initially it was for representation on a protection order. Then I learned my ex had placed charges against me and the situation escalated. Ultimately, he won my case, getting the criminal charges and the protection order dismissed (two different cases); But it was his length of experience throughout the ordeal which kept the case(s) moving forward. Throughout the entire ordeal, he and his office staff could not have been more professional, knowledgeable and well organized. He was upfront about the legal costs, but his representation was worth so much more.
