Loriann Owens

Lori is hands down the best lawyer I hired her for my complicated case and Lori took the time to actually listen and walked me through every step of my case she truly cares and does a good job at what she does I can’t thank her enough for working so hard on my case and being so supportive even when s...he’s busy she heard you out if you need a good lawyer I recommend Loriann thank you so much for all your hard dedicated work

If you are getting this attorney through the Contra Costa County Bar Association, and are getting this attorney on a cheaper retainer, be aware. At first Ms. Owens was helpful and although, did not give much advise, did say she could help me with my request. As my case progressed, however, she did no...t respond to any of my messages, I had to remind her of my court date, and she did not do half the things she said she would do. During my hearing, I had to remind Ms. Owens of specific details pertinent to my case. If I did not have as much evidence as I had, I doubt the hearing would have gone in my favor. I felt as though Ms. Owens did the absolute bare minimum to help with my case. Needless to say, I still have yet to get the remainder of my retainer and get a response from her. There has been no review of billing for hours spent, and she still has my journal which was used for evidence that she has not returned. All my emails, texts, and voicemails have been very professional and have been prefaced with "I understand you are busy..."

If I could give zero stars I would, because we had absolutely the worst experience with Ms. Owens. What should have been a very easy case for us to recover our damages turned into a long dragged out nightmare due to her lack of communication with us or opposing counsel, she cancelled depositions at t...he last minute after we had arranged to take time off from work, failed to inform of us important court dates, and even failed to appear at a court date where we were left to address the judge by ourselves. I believe we would have been much better off representing ourselves in small claims court.
