Excellent!

Attorney Howe was a great divorce attorney who came highly recommended. He was very understanding and honest. He made a difficult situation less stressful by being available to answer any questions or concerns at anytime. Attorney Howe cares about his clients and I would highly recommend him. ...

Excellent divorce lawyer.

Divorce is a very painful and unpleasant thing. Fred was referred to me by several friends and co-workers, The reviews I got about him were incredible. The initial consultation provided me with accurate estimation of both the time and expense that a divorce would take. Fred doesn't make you feel lik...e an inconvenience or just another paycheck. He honestly takes time to explain things that are unfamiliar. You know what to expect with Fred. I heard horror stories of some lawyers charging you every time they answer the phone. Not the case with Fred. You can't ask for a more fair attorney. He really understood that it was an unpleasant time and was compassionate about it, He didn't try to bleed you dry. 100 percent I recommend him Conveniently located in Kingston, PA. Attorney Fred T. Howe 310 3rd Ave Kingston Pa, 18704 Suite 215, 570-288-5291. Call him, he is the absolute best.

Ignorant

This attorney was very ignorant towards the other party in my case and was completely uncecessary. If he cared what was best for our child he wouldnt have been so abrasive towards the other party. Curses at women and then told my ex to file for support behind my back. Too expensive for this type of b...ehavior. Only cares about whose paying him.

This review was made by the the mother of a child who's father (Charles) is actually my client. She was upset with the outcome of a custody conference and decided express her anger on this site by falsely identifying herself as my client and providing a poor review. Very sad situation.

Excellent!

I was very impressed with the way Attorney Howe handled my case at trial. He was ultra prepared and had a great understanding of the facts of my situation. I will use him again in the future should the n red arise.

  • 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.
