Charges Were Dropped
Cody Dowden is an excellent attorney, a little expensive, but you get what you pay for. Honest and straightforward, everything worked out as he said it would. The day of my court hearing, many people with my same charge had been called up before me, all had their next court date scheduled except me. My charges were dropped, and I wasn’t required to come back.

Jamie Riley
Exceeded Every Expectation
Cody Dowden represented me in a recent legal matter. I’m new to NWA and didn’t have a local attorney. I chose Cody based on his outstanding online reviews and he exceeded every expectation. Cody, and his assistant Ann Lindsey, always communicated with me whenever I had questions. Cody explained the legal process to me and our options to get the best possible outcome. Cody never over-promised anything but stayed focused on our strategy. Even with a last-minute 'curveball,' Cody remained calm and continued to negotiate a favorable outcome. I recommend Cody Dowden with the highest endorsement I can give.
Jon Durrance

Absolutely Incredible Outcome
Cody had helped me when he was working for a very reputable law firm in NWA. His performance was outstanding. I had never even had a speeding ticket in 40 years and was suddenly in trouble with the law. Although a misdemeanor, he got it dismissed and off my record. When my teenage son got into major trouble, I called the same law firm only to find that Cody had started his own business. Mind you, I went and found him. Best decision of my life. My son, 19, had managed to get multiple felonies in three counties. We were looking at some serious fines and, most of all, prison time. It was quite the mess. I needed quick action and major help. Cody had no problem taking on our situation. Thank God! One county had written a warrant as a felony and it was unlawful, and Cody brought it to their attention. The police department had to rewrite it as a misdemeanor. Cody had no problem traveling to other counties to address our son's charges. They were serious and multiple. One county's prosecuting attorney even told us, 'He is good.' Cody has a great confidence that not many exude. You can feel it right off in his presence. He shoots straight, but the outcome is always better than the cards laid on the table. My son got probation for an extended time, but we were looking at at least 10-20 years for a young boy that got involved with the wrong people. He got a second chance thanks to Cody! Absolutely incredible what he did for us. He knows the law better than the law! He put up with a hysterical mother in great fear. The end result was more than I had prayed for. Cody, you are one of a kind. We are forever indebted. Hope I never need you again. But just in case, I certainly know where to go. God bless you and thank you for everything! Jordan (you are my hero).
Jordan Griffin
Worth Every Penny!
I got a speeding ticket and realized that my insurance was going to increase 39%... NOT GOOD! Called Cody Dowden's office and they took care of it. Didn't have to show up at court... just pay the fines and under advisement for the next year! No insurance reporting! Worth every penny!
David Carlton
Best Lawyer I've Ever Had
Best lawyer I've ever had, hands down. Went above and beyond, I highly recommend.

Dawn Andrews
I now have my civil liberties back!
Call Cody Dowden right now! I was young and dumb and made some mistakes that cost me my civil liberties. After completing the required sentences and restitutions, I called several attorneys seeking to expunge and seal my records. Every single one said it was a long shot. After calling Dowden Law Firm, I was connected with Ann Lindsey, who walked me through the process. I now have my civil liberties back! Thank you, guys!
Christopher Clark
Cody is very kind
I am very grateful to have found Cody as a lawyer, in a very difficult time for my family, to represent my son. Thank you very much for everything you have done. I wish that God continues to bless you so that you continue to help more people in difficult times. We are all human, and we all make mistakes. It depends on each one if you learn from them or not. Thank you for always explaining to me when I had doubts or I didn't understand well. You do an excellent job. I will recommend you to friends and family. Cody is very kind and will do everything in his power to help you get a good outcome.
Maria C
Best attorney I've ever dealt with
Best attorney I've ever had to deal with and it's not even close. I had a handful of very unorthodox/unique questions that most attorneys (I contacted dozens) were unwilling to take the time to answer. Cody took the time to read through legislation and statutes and got back to me in a timely manner with answers to my questions and cited the law to help me better understand how he came to his conclusions. On top of all that, he was extremely patient and seemed genuinely passionate about his practice. 11/10 highly recommend.
Brandon D.
Prepared for My Case Every Step
Cody was effective, professional, and has shown that he remained informed and prepared for my case every step of the way.

Anh
Most Professional and Helpful Lawyer
I've used many lawyers over my lifetime so far, but this one was by far the most professional and helpful one I have ever seen. Cody was always quick to respond to questions and gives his cases his all to achieve the results he tells you.
Randy Averill

Bang up job by Mr. Dowden
Mr. Dowden did a bang-up job. He handled my case from Bentonville, and I'm in Hot Springs. Very proud of how he handled everything. I would recommend him all the thumbs up.

Cody Saved My Daughter's Life
I would hire Cody Dowden again and I have referred him. My daughter went through a horrific trauma and she went towards addiction. She had bounced on and off in recovery and using, making the wrong choices, cycling in addiction, never making serious changes. It took her to care again. Bondsman bonded her to a rehab, and I started seeing her really care and change. So I hired Cody Dowden. I'm so glad I did; she was facing lots of time in prison and he got her probation and a fine. This attorney believed us and he fought for my daughter. This made my daughter fight for herself. Today my daughter is a Regional Detox Specialist, Crisis Interventionist, and Peer Support Officer, continuing her knowledge, taking classes on the biology of trauma. She's saving lives, pulling people out of addiction, sharing her story. Her hobby is raising ducks now. Cody gave my family hope! I'm counting on him one more time. I have faith and I do believe 🙏 God sent us the best. This attorney cares and he's changing lives, but it's up to you to do the rest of the work and I'm thankful to him. Cody saved my daughter's life. This attorney gives you hope again. Hire him! You won't regret it. We're so grateful to him! May God always bless him to bless others. Thank you, Cody Dowden, for listening and caring. You changed her life path.
White Dove
Cody did not disappoint at all
Cody Dowden was such an extremely big help with a game and fish violation I got for myself. His confidence sold me, and he did not disappoint at all. Without going into details, if I had to do this all over again, I would hire Cody again. He took care of so much, and I never had to worry.
Cordie Pyburn
Worth Every Dollar
Cody helped my son Francisco with several criminal charges in different district courts. I’m extremely satisfied with the outcome, and will be hiring him for future charges, if any. Totally recommend. Worth every dollar. Cody will fight for you until the finish line.
MARTIN RESENDIZ
Found Not Guilty, Grateful for Cody
Cody was MORE than helpful with my case. He investigated my DUI to the fullest extent. The detailed communication I received was beyond incredible. I had absolutely no idea what to do, and he helped me every step of the way. I was found not guilty, and I couldn’t be more grateful for him and his team! Thank you again!
Micah Griffith
Charge was dismissed
So grateful for Cody Dowden and his dedication to help my brother with his difficult case. My brother was wrongfully accused of a crime and was facing 20+ years in prison. Cody went above and beyond to help build a case for my brother and ultimately the charge was dismissed. Cody has a professional and powerful presence in the courtroom. Cannot recommend him enough!
Savannah
Cody Comes Highly Recommended
Cody has been a wonderful asset to our family for nearly a decade in regards to various minor and major legal issues. He is straightforward, professional, and realistic when it comes to the outcome of all legal matters that come his way. He communicated effectively with our family at every step of the process. Cody has delivered on the best possible outcome time and time again. He comes highly recommended, and we will continue to use him as needed in the future!
Abby Griffin Scott
Cody's Aggressive Persuasiveness
Hired Cody for a reckless driving charge in Lowell. The judge for Lowell in particular has a reputation for not showing any mercy when it comes to excessive speeding. Long story short, per the judge's own words, if it wasn’t for Cody’s aggressive persuasiveness, he never would have given me a second chance. I've had many attorneys in the past, and let me say if you're looking for an honest attorney that gets the job done, Cody Dowden is your man. Once again, thank you, Cody and your team, for doing a superb job.
Cristian Valle
