The Best!

When I started researching who I should use as a divorce lawyer. I called a few different ones. I would leave voicemails only to receive a email response back from one lawyer or no response from others. As soon as I called Christines I may have had to leave a voicemail but Lisa was always there to ...answer the phone or return calls. From the beginning Lisa and Connie would answer all my questions via phone or email. Christines office gave me the most comforting vibe. This last year has been a long one but Christine, Lisa and Connie have made it super easy and convienent. I never had issues receiving dates for hearings or papers to get signed. If I ever need them again, which in my case, I just may. I’ll definitely call Christine Howard and her team. Thanks for everything!!!

Christine Howard

I was very pleased with Christine and her staff. Going through a divorce is a very difficult and emotional event. Christine and her staff showed genuine care and compassion backed with legal expertise. My anxiety level decreased greatly upon meeting Christine and her staff. I am so thankful that I... had them on board to help me make this transition. I highly recommend this great team.

Would recommend her

Christine was very professional and sought to make the process as easy as possible. She and her staff were great to work with and very responsive to requests. I would recommend her to others without hesitation.

Highly Recommend Christine M. Howard

Going through a separation or divorce is never easy, and when it is unexpected makes it even more difficult, either way most people are just trying to cope with a significant life changing event. Figuring out the next step and the best way to handle the situation is tough for anyone. The circumstance... that I was in, like every case, is different from that of others, however, I found myself doing what anyone reading this is doing and that is trying to find an attorney that could help. I called several attorneys and considering money was an issue it was frustrating to have office after office quote me by the hour, the half hour, and in one case by the minute. Calling Christine M. Howard office was a completely different experience, with the person answering the phone, Lisa, taking the time to talk to me, without any pressure, she was helpfully and made everything as clear as she could from the outset, which made the decision to set-up an appointment that much easier. From the first call, through meeting with Christine and working with her and her team throughout the process, has been like that first call, a different experience. Different from other attorneys I have worked with and from what I have heard from others that have been through this and how their experience differed. There was no quote by the hour, no “plus expenses,” rather the rate was set to do a job that was clearly outlined from the start. Christine and her team did that job with a level of professionalism, understanding of differing needs, a willingness to explain questions and concerns, and always quick to respond to emails or calls, all of these things have become a rarity in any profession. These factors combined to make for different experience that made a really difficult situation easier on everyone concerned. I could go on, but needless to say, I highly recommend Christine M. Howard to anyone and I can not thank her and her team enough for all they have done, it is greatly appreciated.
