THIS MAN DID AN AWESOME JOB. He got my cases DROPPED... Took some time with same thing in multiple courts but this man k own what he is doing....

Posted by H. Camp | September 23, 2019 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Honest, hardworking, genuine lawyer!

My husband hired Bryan for a dui charge.  The dui could've resulted in the loss of  license and my cdl's, loss of job,  also a jail sentence. Bryan was able to get the charge reduced to reckless driving, which saved license/cdl and did not receive any jail time. He worked his magic and truly helped m...e out in this stressful time.  I highly recommend Bryan for any situation you are in. Thank you so much for all of your hard work on my case!!

Fantastic Job! Thank you Mr. Howard

Mr. Howard did an excellent job on my DUI case. I could not have asked for a better lawyer to handle my case and take care of me. Don't look any further than this lawyer.

Excellent lawyer,

He did a good job on my DUI case. Up front and honest and got a good result in the end.

One in a million

For me he was a life saver after 2 attorneys before him on the same case said I will probably have to do some time he took one at the transcripts and said they have no case. Even after my case was disposed of we remained confidants. Honest, Strong and ready to go to war with an for you. I highly rec...ommend this lawyer in your Criminal or personal injury case.

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.
