Forever Grateful

After being in a non-stop custody "battle" for over three years, Lisa Bowman was able to bring our nightmare to a happy ending at the close of 2016 (she acquired my case starting in April of 2016). She has a genuine concern for the children and families that she represents. Her knowledge, compassion..., and professionalism can not be matched by any other attorney in this town. Yes, she expects to make a living but her fees are more than reasonable for the amount of expertise that she possess. Her paralegal and administrative assistant provide excellent and compassionate client service- phone calls and emails are always answered in a timely fashion, they keep you updated with only the information you need to know and do not bother to stress you out over petty issues. Considering my situation is high conflict and the opposing counsel continually fuels that conflict and lacks any sort of ethics- I'm sure this will not be our last "battle". Nonetheless, I can move forward in peace knowing that in the event we find ourselves back in court that we will have Lisa Bowman advocating for our child's best interest. Being able to put your trust in your attorney's judgement, knowledge, and capabilities during such an emotionally stressful time is worth it's weight in gold.

ZERO STARS!!!

Lisa Bowman has done nothing to help me at all. She has not fought for me and my children and my small children are in a very bad, dangerous situation. Frankly the only thing I think she cares about is getting her money! My soon-to-be ex has been in contempt so many times and she did nothing about it...! There are so many things that she was supposed to do and she didn't do them. We found out that the reason the other side keeps winning is because my soon-to-be ex's attorney is friends and drinking buddies with the judge on this case! What has Lisa done about it?? NOTHING!! She rarely returns phone calls or replies to emails. Don't waste your money on this attorney!!!

I appreciate her and the way she does business

I did not make it easy on her. Fighting for visitation and a reasonable and fair child support amount but I had some personal issues hindering me. Lisa was always up front and honest about what I had to do to get to see my daughter and make this right. When I did what she asked she went to war for... me and I couldn't ask for any more. I appreciate you Lisa and will send anyone I know that may need you.

Zero Stars

I wish a warning was given before I paid her the retainer fee. I am stuck. I have paid more than I could afford for a divorce attorney, and have not had one thing resolved or presented in front of a judge. The day she took my check was about the last time I spoke to her. I have called and emailed onc...e or twice a week to get information about court dates and etc. with no returned calls or email. My divorce is being held hostage. Save your money and go elsewhere.

Excellent Child Custody Attorney!

I came home from work one afternoon, and I wasn't allowed back in my own house, or allowed to see my kids. Turns out, my ex wife filed a restraining order with the court based on complete lies. Lisa made my ex look like a complete idiot, and a liar in court. It was so bad that the judge even comme...nted on how difficult it was to believe her about anything she said. Finally, I got equal time with my kids and even got to make up the time I lost from my ex wife filing the false restraining order. I was completely lost when I walked into Lisa's office, and had no hope of ever seeing my kids like a normal father again. She really listened to my case, was so knowledgeable, and was incredible in court. I am really happy with Lisa's representation, and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of some serious help.

"I endorse this lawyer. Lisa is one of the smartest and motivated attorneys I have ever seen. She is one of a handful of Chattanooga attorneys that can handle the most difficult and complex divorce or custody case, and make it look easy while she destroys opposing counsel. I havent seen a review od Lisa thaadequately describes her legal talents. If you hire Lisa you will be amazed."
