Blair D. Howard

* Phone calls not returned promptly. * Could not remember basic information about my case (every time I spoke with him I had to repeat basic case information to him). * Insisted that I should gather all EMT, hospital, and police reports, as well as coordinate interviews with witnesses. * Billed me... for a "Consultant" that he told me he was not going to contact (and I had told him not to contact this "consultant". * 1-business day before my court date, Blair Howard told me he did not subpoena any witnesses and that if I would like him to, he would have to ask for a continuance from the courts (and more money from me). * Was 20 minutes late for court (as in, court started 20 minutes before he arrived). * Insisted that I should take a "good plea deal" offered by the Commonwealth's Attorney-- later I found out that people with more serious offenses and NO attorney were offered the same "deal" that I was offered, or better. * Managed to spend the $5k retainer and then sent a bill for almost $3K more for what should have been a simple case.
