Alexander T. Bowman

Alexander T. Bowman is an Oakland estate planning attorney and shareholder whose practice centers on customized estate plans, trust administration, and probate administration. He works with individuals and families preparing for the transfer of property and with people responsible for settling a loved one’s estate. His work includes guiding clients through decisions about beneficiaries, fiduciary responsibilities, and estate administration. He approaches planning and administration as connected steps in preserving a client’s wishes and easing later responsibilities for family members.

Alexander earned a B.S. in Finance from San Diego State University in 2009, followed by a J.D. from John F. Kennedy University School of Law in 2013. His finance education is relevant to analyzing assets and the practical consequences of estate planning decisions. He was admitted to the California Bar in 2014 and was also admitted to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California that year. His training supports work involving both financial and legal elements of estate administration.

Alexander develops estate planning arrangements tailored to clients’ circumstances rather than applying one standard plan to every household. His practice includes helping clients identify planning goals, organize the transfer of assets, and address concerns about how an estate will be handled after death. During trust and probate administration, he assists the people charged with carrying out those instructions and navigating the necessary legal processes. This work requires attention to family circumstances, property interests, and the duties associated with administering an estate.

Alexander T. Bowman is certified as a Legal Specialist in Estate Planning, Trust and Probate Law by the California State Bar Board of Legal Specialization. He is a member of East Bay Trusts and Estates Lawyers, the Alameda and Contra Costa county bar associations, the Bar Association of San Francisco, and other professional organizations. His work emphasizes clear planning and steady guidance during estate administration, when families may face important decisions under difficult circumstances.
