Hired Attorney Teresa K. Bowman

We worked with Atty. Chrystal Koch regarding estate planning. The process was not only informative, but everything was explained carefully and thoroughly. We are very pleased with the attentiveness that was shown to us during this process. The office was recommended to us, and we will certainly recommended them to anyone else. Our interactions with Taylor, their intake specialist and Atty. Koch were professional, informative and friendly.

After having a disappointing and discouraging experience with a very pricey lawyer,  I was desperately in need of an elder law attorney to help me with my ninety-six year old sister’s Medicaid application. I made an online inquiry to the Teresa K Bowman P.A. law firm and received an immediate reply. It did not take me long to realize that I had finally found a knowledgeable advocate who understood my situation and could guide me through the complicated process. Thanks to Attorney Bowman and Public Benefits Specialist & Paralegal, Brian Epifanio-Kandel, my sister is finally receiving the care and attention she deserves! I cannot thank them enough!

I really enjoyed meeting with her to discuss and draw up a will, living will, power of attorney and advanced health directive. She recommended several things I had not thought of. She made me aware of some options I had known of. I would highly recommend her for legal needs.

Teresa and her staff were more than excellent. Not knowing what to to expect during a trying time in our lives she put us at ease. Explained in layman's language. She quoted us a price and it never changed although she did much more than we expected. I respect her honesty, efficiency I could go on and on. You will not see any ads by her. she did over an hours consultation with us.

Everyone in the office is so pleasant and does everything they can to accommodate your schedule. I worked with Rachel. She was very good and patient when explaining anything that was unclear. I felt I was in good hands. Teresa Bowman was recommended by my neighbor and I have no problem recommending her office to others.

In trying to deal with the complicated process of applying for and obtaining Medicaid, Teresa and her staff were very professional. The initial consultation and then the entire process went smoothly. Every step of the way was explained to me. Each time something new came up, they took care of it quickly and made it so much easier for me. I am so pleased that I was referred to her and strongly recommend her and have recommended her to others.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
