Attorney Bowe will listen to your story, speak with witnesses, work with Maine’s top investigators, and bring experience to every aspect of your case.
He’ll also seek to identify any holes in the State’s case against you, evaluate the evidence, and aim to bring forth new information that will help your Criminal Defense. As experienced Criminal Defense Lawyers in Brunswick Maine, we know the State builds cases through law enforcement reports, witness statements, and physical evidence, and we focus on what prosecutors must prove.

Theft
From shoplifting to complicated civil disputes among neighbors and business owners and employees, Attorney Bowe has handled a variety of theft cases in Maine. For each case, he’ll work hard to consider the level of dispute between parties and, whenever possible, will strongly advocate with the District Attorney for out of court settlements.
When a pre-trial settlement is not an option, Attorney Bowe will defend you in court and help minimize your punishment. We provide Criminal Defense representation focused on your case goals, including challenging evidence, filing motions, preparing for trial, and discussing plea options when that is the best path to protect you.
Assault/Battery
Attorney Bowe is extremely well-versed in defenses for assault and battery charges, including: duress, self-defense, competing harms, public duty, involuntary conduct, and/or defense of premises under Maine law.
He takes the time to gain a comprehensive understanding of your case, bring to light any mitigating factors, apply a sharp, thought-out defense, and fight to secure the best outcome possible.
Fraud
If your case involves fraud, whether it be forgery, falsification of checks, or negotiating a worthless instrument, Attorney Bowe can help. Fraud cases can be resolved outside of court when both parties are willing. Attorney Bowe will work diligently to learn the details of your case, present you in a positive light and whenever possible, negotiate for an out-of-court settlement. If that’s not possible, he’ll defend you in court and reduce the severity of your punishment.
