Really good lawyer
I hired attorney Michael Bowser to fight drunk driving charges so I wouldn’t loose my Class A Commercial Drivers License. Not to get to into my case but I blew a .08 and caught with an open container in my personal vehicle. My charges were dropped from a Class B Misdemeanor to a Town Ordinance fine for $1,000 for breaking traction and was wrote off as like a noise violation and I got to keep my CDL. For anyone that’s trying to fight a DWI with a CDL I highly recommend hiring Mike Bowser he did a great job with my case.
Lifesaver
I am a Mass resident with with 3 prior convictions from almost 30 years ago.I was arrested for boating while intoxicated In New Hampshire and refused the breastalizer. When I learned of Melany’s Law and what this could mean to my Mass license I thought my life was over. I consulted with Mr Bowser and was instantly convinced he was the right choice. He was able to get my case dropped to Careless and Negligent boating with no loss of driving license in Mass and only the 6 months in New Hampshire for the refusal. I could not be more pleased with my selection or Mr. Bowser and the results I got.
Two Felonise two misdemeanors dropped to one misdemeanor… truly saved my life
“Michael Bowser recently representing me on a superior case out of rocking ham County.. I was facing two Felonies and two misdemeanor charges possibly looking at upwards of two years in state prison..

Thank you Mike for the unbelievable job you did on my case,,,,”
Cannabis possession
“I was referred to Mr Bowser by a mother lawyer in the western part of the state after consult and agreeing on the cost I hired Mr Bowser. I found him to be relatable and confident lawyer.
He got my case dropped with zero charges.
I would hire him again if I ever had another issue with cannabis possession, or any other criminal offense”
Excellent! Look no further!
I was charged with a DUI in NH, live in MA. I was scared, sad, and felt like I had hit rock bottom. I couldn’t talk to anyone for days but knew I had to contact a lawyer for help. I knew nothing about dealing with anything like this- had a completely clean record. I got the courage to call, and spoke with Val- who was so kind and comforting during, what I felt like, was the worst time of my life. I met with Mike for the free consultation and knew immediately I needed to hire him. He was accommodating, friendly, comforting, and didn’t make me feel like I was the worst person on Earth (which is how I was feeling.) We won the ALS hearing – he knew keeping me able to drive was important. He also was kind and considerate- he asked me a few times if things were ok and made sure I still held my current job. The fact that he cared about ME instead of just getting paid meant a lot to me. I had several court conferences where I met with two different women lawyers from the firm- both were very kind, reassuring and nothing that I expected! They make you feel like family, in a way. My trial finally came, Attorney Bowser was there early to try and find some aggreement. And he did. My DUI was dropped down to the lesser charge of reckless driving. There’s some work I need to do based on the conditions, and am happy to do it. Attorney Bowser left me that day completely set up for success. He recommended a therapist to do the court ordered evaluation, he let me know that he will still work with me regarding the license suspension in NH (and getting it reinstated) and said that when the MA RMV gets involved, to let him know and he’d help with that. From start to finish, I am so glad I hired Attorney Bowser. I was scared- I didn’t know if I should go without a lawyer, or which to choose but if I could give you any advice- go with your gut- that’s why you’re reading this! The best outcome for you is Bowser Law- not only for the defense, but when you’re stressed more than you can imagine, there’s something comforting about being able to reach out to Val, in the office. She’s the best! Good luck!
