Throughout his career, Mr. Mowry has had the privilege of handling a diverse array of intriguing cases. His professional experience has been enriched by these opportunities, and he remains grateful for the chance to have contributed to the resolution of complex legal issues. However, the true highlight of his career is his immense pride in his three accomplished children.
Mr. Mowry finds the most rewarding aspect of the law profession to be the genuine assistance he can provide to people in managing their business and personal affairs. In his practice, particularly in estate planning, he takes pride in helping clients organize their affairs to minimize family conflicts and mitigate the impact of wealth transfer taxes. Moreover, witnessing his daughter, now a fourth-year associate at his firm, continuing the legacy of providing valuable legal assistance further reinforces his sense of fulfillment and pride in his profession.
In the coming years, Mr. Mowry intends to continue his current professional pursuits, maintain his physical fitness and well-being, and travel. He also aims to allocate more time for family engagement. He envisions a future where he remains active and engaged, however, he does aspire to gradually slow down and delegate some tasks to younger colleagues or family members while maintaining oversight and client interaction.
