DUI HIT AND RUN

I recieved a DUI Hit & Run on the first of the year. I didn't know where to turn. There are so many Lawyers , seems like alot of them just want your money. A friend told me about Barbara Bowden . I gave Barbara a call and met with her. I could tell right from the start that she knew her stuff. After ...a short period of time with Barbara and her staff I felt 100% better. They really care about you and how your doing with the whole situation. Let me tell you. sitting there in the court room can be really scary. As soon as I saw Barbara walk in the room it was like a breath of fresh air. I knew I was in the best DUI attoneys hands in Pierce County. My DUI will get reduced to a Reckless and the Hit and Run reduced to a Unattended. I had no jail time and no home monitoring. Just 80 hrs of community service. I feel that I really did well considering the charges . Then We had the DOL hearing Barbara won that . No interlock. If you need a great representation on a mistake that you have made, I would pick Barabara Bowden. She is really great.

Barbara Bowden

My name is Trevor Rolfe. I live in Covington, WA, and have known Barbara since my unfortunate court begginings. She has done nothing less than secure me a future. She has worked multiple driving while suspended cases for me, multiple minor in possesions, multiple speeding tickets, ect. She is without... a doubt the best lawyer in the greater king county area. She cares, if you care, about your situation.. For those reviews above me that talk of her inadept "worker bee's", I reply with this, Barbara is a very busy woman. This is because she is the best. When it actually matters, she will be there, and she will do everything she can to help you. I have recommended her to multiple multiple friends who have used her in everything from DUI cases to Assualts. Not a single one has complained. Get smart. Pick Barbara.

SIMPLY THE BEST

I used Barbara for a DUI case for a refusal. She did her due dilligence, studied the police reports, and then decided to take it to a jury trial. She was AMAZING... 1 plus years later the jury came back with a NOT GUILTY verdict. Barbara Bowden saved my life, my family and my job... She knows her stu...ff and has the staff to back her in a crunch.

Barbara Bowden is the BEST!!

Several years ago we found ourselves needing an attorney for a very complicated and strange case. Not knowing who to hire to represent us, I went to court and spent a day watching acouple dozen lawyers in action. It was really disheartening watching incompetent lawyer after incompetent lawyer losing ...cases for their clients. They were obviously bored, unprepared and some were so out of it, I wondered if they even knew who their clients were, and what they were supposed to be defending them for. After many hours of this, suddenly a case came up, and this gal bounded to the front of the courtroom and it was a Perry Mason moment. She was sharp, attractive, articulate, well prepared, enthusiastic, convincing and cordial. The judge was a dope, and appeared to be ready to lower the boom on her client, but she fought like a tiger. She turned the whole situation around, everybody in the courtroom was suddenly awake and hanging on her every word. (I'm sure all the accused in the courtroom were wishing she was their attorney!) She finally wrestled victory out of the jaws of defeat and won. As she came back down the aisle, I and several other people asked for her business card. Am I glad I did! We ended up hiring her, and she was fabulous. I can't recommend her highly enough. She is what every lawyer should be. When she steps in front of the judge, she is there to WIN. She does her homework and thoroughly prepares her cases. Thank you Barbara, you're the greatest!
