About Courtney
Biography
Courtney Rowley is a trial lawyer, mother of three, and the author of three books: Trial By Woman, Running with The Bulls, and Voire Dire and Opening. After clerking at one of the top law firms in California with a position, she saw the writing. So, she didn’t take that big high paying job with great benefits, a great salary and a brand new car, instead, she drove her parents’ junky Prius up to Ventura and went out on her own. She started trying cases. Misdemeanors, felonies. And she started winning. After she was the youngest to be accepted to and attend Gerry Spence’s Trial Lawyer College, she started trying civil cases and has won record verdicts throughout the country. She taught with the Spence College as a staff member for years. She’s overcome the adversity that women face in this profession through hard work and determination.
She is a co-founder of Trial By Human and Trial By Woman and lectures and teaches throughout the country.

Courtney Elizabeth Rowley's Lawyer Endorsements
"Courtney Rowley is the consummate professional. While she well-known for being an unbelievably skilled and fierce trial attorney - she is also kind, loving, and compassionate when helping those in need. I would recommend her for any case."
"Courtney is an amazing trial lawyer. Her ability to communicate a client's story to the jury and maximize verdicts is unsurpassed by any other lawyer of her generation. A true legal star."
"Courtney is a dear friend. I am, therefore, obviously slightly biased -perhaps a lot. Courtney is a dynamic, passionate, driven dedicated attorney. You can't go wrong with Courtney."
"Any person who has had the misfortune of suffering an injury caused by the negligence of another could not go wrong by hiring Courtney. She is smart, resourceful and committed. She is a tireless champion for those that she represents and a superb advocate in the courtroom. Most importantly, she is willing to and does take the time necessary to really know and understand her client's needs."
"I endorse this lawyer. Courtney is a great trial attorney. She has worked on criminal cases with me in the past that resulted in not guilty verdicts thanks to her."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. Courtney looks like a California girl but she is a tiger with her cases. We have worked together and I would trust her to help with any case I was doing in California or Texas, or anywhere else for that matter. She loves her job and loves her clients, so much so that she spent a month in Wyoming becoming a better trial lawyer under Gerry Spence in 2009."
