Brilliant, strategic, and savvy

I've worked closely with Howard for two years and always benefit from his solid strategic advice. The calm voice in a storm of litigators, Howard knows how to get things done under extraordinarily complicated and challenging environments. His legal results are outstanding, and his nuanced under...standing of human nature helps him resolve complex disputes creatively and cost-effectively. I recommend him extremely highly.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
