This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Mr

This lawyer is a joke! He was not reliable or competent in handling my case. It is extremely frustrating when legal representation falls short of expectations, especially when it involves crucial aspects like obtaining evidence for your case. This attorney did not know how to request evidence needed ...from other agencies. I had to call and get information to inform my attorney how this process works. He continued to assure me everything was being done and we would meet to review the evidence. After waiting five months and spending so much time calling and pleading for information I was even more disappointed when I found out he had never even requested the information. Paying for services that are not delivered in a timely or competent manner is unacceptable. It is important for clients to be able to trust their legal representation to act in their best interests and handle their cases effectively. It is so disappointing that my lawyer failed to fulfill his obligations, leading to unnecessary delays and added stress on my part and had no accountability in this system for his negligence.

A winner

If you want to win, pick Steve. He will be prepared and fight for you. He also stays in touch and keeps you informed every step of the way.

He's a fighter

He took my case after everyone else had turned me down. I got a nice settlement ($250,000) and I paid off my hospital bills, got a new car, and had most of it left over. He's very busy but always returned my phone calls. He genuinely cares about his clients.

Great Attorney

Mr. McGowan researched my case, went to court and helped me get the best deal possible for my dui case. I would definitely use him again if needed. I also recommend him to my friends and family, who have used him also.

Social Security

Mr. McGowan was very professional and easy to communicate with. He had my file update with all my records. He handled my court hearing in a timely and professional manner. I would hire him again if need be.

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.
