Rear-end collision

As a young married couple, pregnant with our first child and involved in a rear-end accident, we weren't sure where to turn for legal advice and were fortuantly referred to Scott Bowen. Scott represented us in an injury case that was very clear cut but took over a year and a half to settle. He was pa...tient and refused to let the insurance company bully us into a low ball offer. Scott's paralegal staff were so help with scheduleding issues as we moved back to Montana while working on our case. Scott was honest and gave his professional opinion when we were put in a position to either settle or litigate. We decided to settle and are so glad we did. The process from start to finish was exceptional, communication was clear, and we knew that the well-organized staff had our best interests in mind.

Scott Bowen represented me in 2014-15 for a personal injury case for second and third degree burns sustained during a pedicure paraffin waxing. Throughout the year of focusing on my case, Scott was professional and responsive at all times. Phone calls were returned and emails responded to promptl...y and professionally, not only by Scott, but also by his legal team. Scott took the time out to provide in-depth explanations about the process for the lawsuit including the legal ramifications and laws in Washington state, the complexities of personal injury insurance, the pros and cons of arbitration. At all times, my best interest and the outcome of the case was his singular focus. One of the top benefits of having Scott represent me was his congenial, personable and sincere manner. I wasn't just a case to him--I was a real person who had experienced an injury and trauma. He was compassionate and truly cared about me. I would not hesitate to recommend Scott Bowen to any family, friends or colleagues. While personal injury cases are not a picnic, Scott helped ease the anxiety and stress, and I always looked forward to talking to him. It was a first-rate experience.

Personal injury lawyer | Sep 15

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I am an attorney in Bellevue, Washington and I have known Scott Bowen for 30 years. My endorsement is based on professional and personal experience. A number of years ago, my son was very seriously hurt in an accident which was not his fault. I did not hesitate to refer him to Scott, who secured a favorable settlement. Scott treated my son with skill, sensitivity and compassion. Scott understands that his clients are not just legal cases. They are living, breathing human beings who are suffering physically and emotionally and who are worthy of his respect. This is not an act. Scott truly cares. I would (and have) unhesitatingly referred personal injury clients to Scott because I know they will be good hands."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I was Scott Bowen's paralegal for over 8 years before I became an attorney myself. Since then, we have worked together on a few cases. Scott is a very good lawyer who produces solid results. He is personable and approachable. Clients like him and he works well with opposing counsel, which makes litigation easier on his clients. If I ever need to hire a personal injury attorney myself, Scott's the attorney I'd pick without any question or hesitation."

Relationship: Co-worker

"I have known Scott Bowen since we were in law school together in 1977. I have been his law partner since 1985. Scott is always concerned with the well-being of his clients and puts his clients first. He is ethical, trustworthy and is well-respected by fellow attorneys and insurance adjusters. He works hard to achieve maximum results for his clients. When I had a personal injury case myself, I chose Scott to be my lawyer."
