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.

Barbara helped me win my first citation ever. It was a DUI and I was pretty embarrassed and afraid. By the time it was all overwith, my charges were dropped to wreckless driving with no loss of driving privileges. Barbara and her staff were knowledgeable and friendly. I have no regrets in their repre...sentation of my rights and the manner in which my case was resolved. I recommend Barbara Bowden as the best DUI attorney in the area. Respectfully PKM

I fired two lawyers before I found barbara and Im glad I did. The only thing that I did'nt like was how long the case dragged on for but that was not her fault. I was charged with Two Dui's in one night, so I needed the best representation out there. Barbara is not intimidated by anyone. She tried ev...ery motion and looked into every nook and cranny to find a way to save me from going to Jail. Anyhow the result was as good as it could be, Not only did I not go to Jail but she managed to get me defferred prosecution on both cases, very unheard of but it does happen rarely. Then while serving out my sentence she also got the court to drop my mandatory AA meetings which was very difficult to do seeing how the judge didnt want to do it because the treatment program didnt want to sign off on it. But she did it! with lots of creative terminology.Soo if you find yourself in a similiar predictiment then I strongly suggest that you seriously consider hiring Barbara to come to your rescue. Thanks again Barbara. One last thing..She charges you a very fair rate and sometimes she wouldnt charge me at all, she would say something like" this ones on me" I love this lady. Shes got your back and she loves doing it.
