Knowledgeable * Honest * An Exceptional Professional

Jaime Cowan turned a very bad situation into an easy and painless solution! She was brilliant and thought through the oppositions' tactics to block them at every turn. I now understand the saying that "sometimes bad things happen to very good people." My husband & I were in a traffic fatality situati...on in a backwater county. Things went from bad to terrifying very quickly. I must admit that in my 60+ years I had never realized how naive I was about the courts, the police, and the district attorneys. Unwisely, I trusted the county and state officials enough to talk with them at the time. I was a vehicle passenger with no interaction of any type with the opposition in the incident yet, was charged months later with 2 felonies. Jaime provided knowledge, support, and an amazing defense to overcome the 2 felony charges successfully. Jaime's knowledge & defense helped bring me understanding and peace throughout the process. I couldn't have found a better attorney to represent me. The end result of a simple misdemeanor was just and proper for the incident. I cannot thank you enough Jaime! I highly recommend you hire Jaime Cowan for your successful solution.

I respected that when she was at the DA's Office, and know that it serves her and her clients well now that she's on our side. She knows right from wrong and is willing to do what it takes to get it done. She's more than happy to go trial if that's what it takes. I endorse this lawyer."
