About Ryan

Practice areas

I’m from Salisbury and I’m proud to practice law in my hometown! I  am the principal attorney at Stowe Law Firm, PLLC. I focus my practice on traffic violations, criminal law, and expungements. While in law school at North Carolina Central University School of Law, I served as the President of Phi Delta Phi International Legal Honor Society.

 

Within the legal profession, I  strive to be a “social engineer” for his community. As stated by Charles Hamilton Houston, “A lawyer is either a social engineer or a parasite on society A social engineer [is] a highly skilled, perceptive, sensitive lawyer who [understands] the Constitution of the United States and [knows] how to explore its uses in the solving of problems of local communities and in bettering conditions of the underprivileged citizens.”

A True Professional
I have referred several of my clients and potential clients to Ryan for traffic and criminal matters. I have heard no complaints about his work, work ethic, or communication with clients. He is polished and studied and has the right approach to cultivating key relationships which can help his clients get the best results possible. He is my go to person for anything in his geographical coverage area and I reach out to him with questions and advice as needed. The client who selects him will not be sorry and will come away with a better respect for our profession. A true professional in an era where it seems that unprofessionalism seems to be creeping into too many aspects of our society.

Let's Go, Stowe!
Mr. Stowe is a consummate professional. He has represented my interests in traffic court and provided legal consultation in other matters. I have found him time and again to be reliable, diligent, and thorough. Mr. Stowe possesses a strong talent for explaining legal proceedings and concepts in laymen's terms, which at once provides both knowledge and comfort in an often confusing landscape. I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Stowe's services.

Best Lawyer Ever
Ryan Stowe represented me for a speeding ticket. I was in jeopardy of losing my NC driver’s license. Mr. Stowe got one of my charges dismissed and I was able to keep my license. My insurance didn’t even go up as a result of the ticket. I’m so glad I hired Ryan!

AMAZING Attorney!!
I hired Mr. Stowe to handle a possession. Having been completely unfamiliar with typical outcomes and procedures, I was pretty nervous and afraid. Mr. Stowe explained everything to me very clearly and made sure I understood all of my options and everything that was taking place. I feel like I got the best possible outcome from my case due to Mr. Stowe's hard work and expertise. He was very helpful, reasonable and kind throughout the proceedings and checked in with me multiple times to be sure that I was well prepared and aware of everything. I absolutely recommend him!

Quick and as painless as it possibly could be!
Mr. Stowe was very thorough in explaining the entire process to me, from the initial consultation all the way to the court date. I was given a speeding ticket and was able to contact him a month before my court date, which gave me plenty of time to get my things together. I was charged with two charges. Not only was he able to dismiss one of the charges, but he was also able to reduce my speeding so that it would not have that much of an effect on my driver record. I am truly grateful for his services and would gladly recommend him to anyone who received a speeding ticket.

Wonderful job taking care of speeding ticket
Ryan was terrific. When I first received my speeding ticket, I reached out to him and we set up an initial phone call just a few days later. He broke down the options that I had, from the process, the cost and fees, and how my insurance and license points may be affected. They weren't, as he was able to settle the case without and negative impacts. Overall, he was very knowledgeable, professional, and did a great job of catering his schedule to what I needed. I have absolutely no complaints and would easily recommend him to anyone who has any legal issues within his jurisdiction. Thank you again Ryan!

A great lawyer for anyone
Mr. Stowe was fabulous, he talked me through all the options with my case & together we decided on the course of action needed. He made sure I understood everything that was possible so nothing would be a surprise. I was worried about going to jail but Mr. Stowe was positive that wouldn't happen in my case even if I lost. He made sure we had our evidence ready & I knew that I might have to testify. He met me outside the courtroom, made sure I was comfortable & ready to deal with everything. When the DA was ready to call my case, Mr. Stowe stood up & spoke with him. Together they then talked to to complainant which caused my case to be dismissed. I was totally stoked by the results because we had expected to go to trial. I would recommend Mr. Stokes to anyone as a lawyer, especially if they are the least bit unsure about what actions to take.

Best lawyer in town
I contacted him for advice on short notice. He responded quickly and he was very informative and professional. He was straightforward, polite, and reliable. The best experience I’ve ever had with a lawyer! Anything he’s ever helped me with has been dismissed. I will recommend him to all of my friends and family.
