Simply the best!

Last month I received a D.U.I and was faced with a possible license suspension and incarceration. Wasn't sure where to look for an attorney. I was referred to Barbara by a friend who had used her and highly recommended her. I literally had only one court appearance and the matter was resolved. The du...i was dropped to a negligent driving and more importantly Barbara was able to get the breathalyzer test suppressed. No jail time and no license suspension. And she handled my DOL hearing as well. I don't think I could've asked for a better attorney! And everyone in her office is friendly and helpful. I don't think she does it for the money. I think she does it because this is what she is passionate about! Much Love to Barbara and the whole staff there!!!

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.

Huge Mistake

I don't even know where to begin, I first hired Barb Bowden for my first DUI, she didn't show up to court, NEVER returned my call's and hustled me for my money. I then made the mistake of hiring her again for a diffrent matter and I only hired her because I was still on prob. for my Dui. Again NEVER ...returned my call's she NEVER showed up to court. It was some idiot who didn't even know about my case. DO NOT! Make the same mistake I did. She charged me 3grand and it was a big waste of money and she is all about money and getting as many clients as possible! Please take my advise people and find a REAL attorney.
