Mr. Cowling is one of the most honest, trustworthy lawyers I've ever had dealings with. He is forthright and to the point, being both straightforward with his advice as well as up front about his fees. I would highly recommend him for anyone needing legal representation.

  • 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.
