After more than a year being dragged through the system by a so-called "top-rated" DUI attorney in Tacoma I was facing the worse possible penalties for the DUI infraction. Stating that there was nothing else he could do for me because the city attorney would not negotiate on my case I felt hopeless.... One month before I was to be sentenced I fired my attorney and hired Barbara Bowden. She not only negotiated for a lesser charge but did this at my pre-trial hearing. Barbara is a focused professional that truly is an advocate for her clients.

I recieved my first dui back in April. It was very scary and I was unsure of what to do. I was told about Barbara and am so thankful I chose her as my attorney. She made what should have been a very overwhelming experience a smooth one. She worked wonders for me and I will forever be thankful for her... expertise as a lawyer.

I have used Barbara Bowden for years when I get speeding tickets. I drive almost 50,000 miles annually and I got three in 2012. She has never failed to get them dismissed! Recently, my teenage daughter received her first speeding ticket. Of course I referred her to Barbara and her very capable pa...ralegal, Lyuda, who handles many of Barbara's traffic ticket cases. I made one phone call, mailed the ticket and a check to Barbara's office, (the fee is reasonable), and that's it! Again as usual, after the court date for which we did not have to appear, we received a very courteous letter "congratulating us" on the fact that the court has found my daughter not guilty of the cited infraction. Barbara Bowden is the best attorney I know. I hope I never need her for anything more serious than a simple traffic ticket but I know I can count on her. She comes highly recommended by the members of my family, all of whom have needed her services at one time or another.
