Ben McGowan should be your first choice in lawyers

Recently, my teenage son found himself in legal trouble. Having worked with Ben McGowan on a previous legal matter involving a family member, our first call was to his office. Ben responded immediately and set up a meeting to discuss the case. He was knowledgeable about the legal aspects of the case ...and had a game plan for achieving the best outcome. Not only was Ben concerned about a favorable result in court, he ensured my son would not face repercussions in the short term (financial aid for college) and the long run (his future as it pertains to employment), while making certain my son understood the severity of his actions. Ben has an encyclopedic knowledge of case law and it is amazing to see him it apply it to specific legal matters. While working with him, he was always available for our questions and concerns. I cannot recommend Ben McGowan highly enough to anyone facing a legal problem. He will put you at ease and you can rest assured that you are receiving the highest quality legal representation.

Defendant in Will Contest

Being sued was stressful but, Ben made it very managable. He was always avaliable to guide me through this legal process. I was impressed by his ability to remember facts pertaining to my case and he was well prepared in court. Because of his commitment to me and the law, we prevailed on appeal. ...He is a dedicated attorney who works hard to give his clients the best legal advice. I feel fortunate to have had Ben on my side.

Benjamin Logan McGowan - Review

I have a friend who works in the local D. A.’s office, and I asked her to suggest an attorney to me, and she referred me to Ben McGowan, who said he is respected and admired by the attorneys in her office. I’ve worked with Ben on both civil and criminal matters over a number of years and have had ve...ry favorable outcomes. When I initially met with him, he even offered to refer me to another lawyer, because the case I needed representation for was not his usual area of expertise, but since he came so highly recommended, and also because, after meeting him, I had a lot of faith in him, I hired him to represent me, and he did an outstanding job. My experience with Ben is that he thoroughly explains everything to me in detail, listens to my questions with a keen ear and takes the time to answer them clearly, and keeps me updated on the progress of the case. Aside from being an excellent attorney, he is also a compassionate person.

Ben's the BEST

I have been working with Ben for almost a year now. He is the "BEST". I wouldn't recommend any other lawyer in the state of Tennessee. There was never a time that Ben wasn't there at the drop of a dime. He was always there to answer my questions, even when I asked the same one twice. If and when th...ere is that time that I'm sitting around and someone ask, "Does anyone know a good lawyer"; I will stand proudly and say, "I do none other then Ben Mcgowan". Thx Ben for all you have done and continue to do.
