Howard Glenn Ford

Incredibly dissatisfied. Howard represented us in property line dispute. Charged us a set fee to "get the job done" but drops the ball once the fees are received. It is impossible to reach him, doesn't answer questions, doesn't provide legal facts or advice, gives attitude when simply asking where ...the hell he's been. I reached out to him over WEEKS and not a single response except a "I'm in court" and then he would continue to ignore me for MONTHS. In terms of billable hours, he probably only looked into our case for maximum three hours which comes out to a whopping 5k per hour! I had to pay for a Public Background Check myself to identify the opposing party. It took me minutes to find out their names but he and his 'team' couldn't be bothered to do any work. He didn't even have to go to court because it was 'resolved' through mediation. There was no resolution that was satisfactory to my family. Stay away.

I want to start by saying that this is the first negative review I've ever written. I was reluctant to write it. However, I feel that potentially helping many others outweighs the damage that this negative review could cause Mr. Ford. With that said, I would strongly recommend that you should NOT hir...e Howard Ford. I gave Mr. Ford the benefit of my doubts, and hired him despite reading his reviews. Don't make the same mistake that I did. First, he and his secretary are extremely rude!!! I was in a commercial landlord/tenant dispute (in which I and my business are the tenants). I desperately needed immediate legal counsel that couldn't wait until my ongoing lawyer came back from vacation. So I hired Mr. Ford. I paid him to file a petition, and he informed me that he knew the lawyer representing my landlord, and would call him to work things out. However, he had the other parties' interest as a priority over mine. He never filed the petition and decided that he would wash his hands of everything, without providing the service for which he was paid. Once my lawyer returned he worked everything out IMMEDIATELY. My lawyer also contacted Mr. Ford's office to discuss the fact that he scammed me out of my money. To be fair, Mr. Ford then paid me back half of the money. All of the money should have been returned, but I accepted half because the whole ordeal was a nightmare and I did not want to fight anymore. I find Mr. Ford's practices deceptive. He did not do what he promised. Instead of representing me to the best of his ability, he verbally berated me, and did so through text message. As his client, I feel that he did not have my best interest at heart. Once he received payment, his tone completely changed. BEWARE, BEWARE, BEWARE!
