Brown, Goldstein & Levy partner Kobie Flowers has been selected to the 2023 Washington D.C. Super Lawyers in “Criminal Defense: General Practice”, Criminal Defense: White Collar”, and “Civil Rights.” He has earned Super Lawyer recognition for 11 straight years. Only 5 percent of Washington D.C. attorneys—which is the second largest bar in the country—receive this distinction.
Kobie is one of the nation’s preeminent trial lawyers, with over twenty years of courtroom experience. He has litigated cases at both a federal and state level throughout the United States and internationally in military commissions in Guantanamo Bay. Kobie’s unique insight into federal trial practice comes from a career spent building cases for the government as a federal civil rights prosecutor and in fighting the government’s efforts as an assistant federal public defender. Kobie’s lifelong mission to end mass incarceration and police brutality keeps him focused on representing the wrongly convicted and the wrongly accused. Given the decrease in trials, Kobie keeps his trial skills sharp by teaching trial lawyers across the country at well-regarded trial schools, such as the National Criminal Defense College.
In addition to Super Lawyers, Kobie has consistently been recognized as a top lawyer by publications like Lawdragon, Best Lawyers, and Washingtonian, as well as by leading organizations like the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers.
Super Lawyers is a rating service of outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. This selection process includes independent research, peer nominations and peer evaluations.
