Experienced, professional, and honest

Mr. Rowlett assisted me and a colleague with a sexual harassment complaint against a coworker. He helped me draft a cogent complaint, file necessary paperwork, and kept me apprised of the various steps involved in the long and frustrating legal process at my institution. He was honest and direct abou...t what I could expect and possible outcomes of my case. Mr. Rowlett was invaluable in communicating with my employer's attorneys and made himself available to attend all interviews and hearings as I requested, even though it was not required as part of the legal process. He really went above and beyond his professional duties, and I cannot recommend him more enthusiastically.

Excellent attorney for employment law

Bart was an excellent employment lawyer from the moment I walked in the door for a consultation. Throughout the entire process he was honest and straight forward with what I could expect, and also with what he could provide. Bart gave me excellent advice before and during the hearings. He was incr...edibly generous with his time, and I would trust him and his opinion again. I highly recommend Bart Rowlett.

Excellent advice, Outstanding judgement, Easy to deal with.

I personally hired Bart Rowlett to help me with a contract dispute and a difficult employee issue. I had previously observed his excellent analysis of a group contract situation, which was a complex three-way issue with unclear boundaries. He was able to cut to the heart of the matter and saved my gr...oup weeks of fruitless haggling. In all of these instances, he was relentless in pursuing the case, always available, and gave me peace of mind. He handled delicate issues between colleagues with a high degree of emotional sensitivity. I have since recommended him to family and to friends and they all report equal brilliance in dealing with their issues. Bart is an example of all that is great in the legal profession. I would certainly hire him again.

Great CBA Advice

I met with Mr. Rowlett for advice on some language changes as our Local had upcoming Collective Bargaining Agreement negotiations. Mr Rowlett was very professional, knowledgable, and gave us the advice we needed to negotiate a good CBA that I was pleased with.

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.
