Biography
About Kobie Flowers
Kobie is a trial lawyer with over twenty-five years of experience. He has litigated cases in federal and state courts across the United States and in the military commissions at Guantanamo Bay. He represents clients in high-stakes criminal investigations, civil litigation, internal investigations, and trials. Kobie also teaches trial lawyering to lawyers nationwide.
He began his career in the Attorney General’s Honors Program, serving as a civil rights prosecutor. There, he specialized in prosecuting police brutality cases, some of the hardest cases to prosecute, and he never lost once.
Kobie later served as an Assistant Federal Public Defender in Maryland, where he represented individuals facing federal prosecution. He won two-thirds of his trials, an impressively high number, and obtained favorable pre-verdict results when trial was not his client's interest.
Founding Flowers Keller LLP is the capstone of Kobie’s lifelong commitment to ending Mass Incarceration. In 2003, Kobie was one of the prosecutors who successfully tried the largest prosecution of federal correctional officers in the history of the Civil Rights Division. By 2023, he spearheaded the settlement of the largest wrongful conviction case in U.S. history—a case which was made into the critically acclaimed HBO documentary When a Witness Recants. This history of fighting to end Mass Incarceration is what Kobie brings to his advocacy for the wrongly accused and the wrongly convicted.
