Visionary

I have worked with Mr. Mowbray for decades on various legal matters. His ability, judgment and professionalism is what sets him apart. He has an uncanny ability to assimilate complex facts, see the big picture, and assist his clients with navigating through the legal system to a desired result.

Above Reproach

I can't think of one negative word to describe the man or the attorney that John H. Mowbray is. His legal knowledge is outstanding, he is extremely responsive, I would trust him without question. He has always kept me informed, and always made sure that the charges don't exceed the ability to pay.... In addition to his integrity, knowledge, etc. he is plain and simply a kind and generous person. I have had several occasions to ask Mr. Mowbray's assistance, both personal and business related. Most recently on an estate settlement, for which Mr. Mowbray has gone above and beyond to ensure proper settlement; and the creation of a Trust document - with which he paired me with additional office counsel, but remained informed of the progress continually.

John Mowbray: the best litigation attorney in town

John represented me on an extremely sensitive matter in Las Vegas. He is the most responsive, professional attorney I have dealt with in a very long time. He is courteous yet vociferous in his advocacy. I am an attorney. The 5 star rating is real.

Excellent, Ethical and Caring Attorney

I have worked with dozens of attorneys and several law firms over the past 30 years on various business and estate matters and John Mowbray has my highest endorsement. Within days of stepping into a long and arduous litigation that had been in motion for several years, he quickly managed to help sm...ooth things out so that we could settle the matter out of court. Since then, he has been a trusted and caring advisor whom I am thankful for every day.

  • 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.
