At Cowles & Thompson, we are proud of our firm successes. A long-standing tradition at C&T is the "GTL" award; trial, appellate and commercial law victories are celebrated with GTL (Great Trial Lawyer), GAL (Great Appellate Lawyer) and GCL (Great Commercial Lawyer) signs personally created, signed, and posted by Jim Cowles on the attorney's office door.
When they aren't out winning trials, appeals, or completing commercial transactions, our lawyers are successful in other ways, including obtaining dismissals or favorable settlements for our clients. Recently, Cowles & Thompson celebrated the following successes:
