Great Employment Attorney!

While no one ever wants to find themselves in an employment case, Lisa was knowledgeable, empathetic and yet to the point during a difficult time. She was helpful in a few other situations that arose over the duration of my case as well! I was grateful to have her in my corner.

Posted by Mary A. | October 01, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Employment & Labor

Professional and empathetic!

Lisa Bowman exemplifies all that you would wish for in attorney! She is knowledgeable, informed, thoughtful, empathetic and clearly has her client's interest at heart. When she has her facts, she doggedly pursues the client's objectives, and has a mindful sense of urgency in her follow up. If I ev...er needed her expertise again with Labor/Employment law, I would immediately call Ms. Bowman, and would not hesitate to refer her to anyone else!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
