Cowan Law Group - Josef Cowan, Attorney


Welcome to the Cowan Law Group, a premier law firm that has earned a reputation as a highly effective, results-oriented firm that provides smart, strategic legal solutions in an efficient manner. For more than 20 years, leading companies and successful individuals across the country have sought out our firm because they recognize that we are a unique and powerful resource for their legal and business needs.

Q.    What do you like to do?

A.    I love spending time with my family.  I’m very fortunate to have a beautiful wife and 2 terrific sons, whom I adore, and a terrific dog named Lucy the entire family is crazy about.  I’m also very passionate about photography, music, and guitar.  However, what I believe has shaped me most is my passion for travel.  When I was 18, I was very lucky to have an opportunity to backpack through nearly all of Western Europe for 6 months by myself.  The experience was transformational, to say the least, and it instilled in me a strong drive to see and experience the world.  Since then, I have also traveled to Africa, the Middle East, Cuba, and many parts of the United States, Mexico and Canada.  One of my goals is to travel to New Zealand in the not too distant future.

Q.    What professional licenses do you have?

A.    I’m licensed to practice law in the State of California and am admitted to practice in the United States District Courts for the Central and Southern Districts of California.  In addition, I have a California contractors license, and a California real estate brokers license.

Q.    Are you active in any professional organizations?

A.    Over the years I’ve been active in the Orange County and Los Angeles Bar Associations, the Orange County Association of Realtors, as well as the Associated General Contractors and the Building Industry Association.  These are all great organizations and I’ve enjoyed being part of them.  In addition, I was also very fortunate to be a member of Young Presidents Organization for 14 years, and had the great privilege of being a member of our local chapter’s board of directors for several years, as well as our chapter’s chairman.   I graduated from YPO in 2012 and am now a member of World Presidents Organization.
