For parents, getting a call telling you your daughter has been arrested on campus is about as frightening as it gets. We hired Michael Bowser and he got to work right away, explaining the process and helping all of us calm down and understand the steps required to dismiss charges stemming from an overzealous officer’s false assumptions. (Our daughter and her boyfriend were in a verbal argument, neither hit the other, and nobody witnessed anything other than words and tears. Nonetheless, my daughter was arrested for assault and battery.) Kids make mistakes, and facts can get misconstrued: the most important thing is to hire a good attorney to painstakingly, professionally and respectfully stand by your side through hearings, paperwork and interviews to achieve a successful outcome. Mr. Bowser was the best choice for us, and the case was finally dismissed. Now, our imperfect yet promising daughter is back to creating a successful future for herself.
