Karen Allison Howe

This lady (I refuse to call her a lawyer) should be immediately disbarred. Where do I start. 1) dishonest to a point of criminal behavior. I can’t prove that I was over billed on her legal documents but I can prove I was overbilled on phone calls. She’s so dumb that I counted the number of calls on m...y cell phone bill and there was less than 10 calls that she billed me for. IMPOSSIBLE!!! 2) Her legal documents were embarrassingly bad and appeared to be templates. I really think she goes on the Internet and takes legal documents off them and sells them as their own. She used the name “John Doe” Instead of my name in one of the documents in two places. 3) She was totally over matched in court. First off she was so underprepared it was embarrassing. She literally knew nothing about my case going into court and had to constantly look down at her notes. We lost every aspect of the case. I had to pay my legal fees, 100% of my ex-wife’s legal fees and had to pay even more than what they were asking for in child support. —- I am not one to complain but this was so ridiculous I had to make a formal complaint to the bar association. WHAT A JOKE!! Karen had answers for everything but never mentioned the phone call situation. The Bar Association didn’t even address the phone call situation. In their eyes it’s like it never happened. Unbelievable!!! Where do we turn to for help? It is like getting shot and robbed and having no police force to call. I literally caught her stealing!!! This lady cannot go on as a lawyer. She does irreparable harm. Do yourself a favor and make sure you get another lawyer. It is funny she has three 5 star reviews and the rest 1 star. Hmmmm.... I’ll make a bet those 5 star reviews are fake and are close friends.

Ms. Karen Howe Esquire receives my highest recommendation for legal advice and counsel for Family Legal representation. I base this recommendation on her combined critical and strategic thinking skills as both a legal counselor and courtroom litigator. She fully commands subject matter expertise in F...lorida Family Law and legal statutes in addition to demonstrates courtroom legal arguments and litigations in a professional manner. Her pragmatic ability to align sound legal advice with professional courtroom demeanor results in fruition of representing the best interests of her client. She and her paralegal, Ms Lea, are a real team of legal professionals the deserve my appreciation for ensuring that I received as much justice and due process afforded under Florida Family Statutes. The key to ensuring your best success with Ms Howe and Ms Lea on your legal team is to provide them the facts and truth enabling them to develop a cogent legal strategy on your behalf. With this accomplished, rest assured this legal team will show up to court with a legal strategy and debate preparation fully dedicated to your best interests which is to provide the ruling judge the clearest situational awareness pursuant to Florida legal statutes enabling a favorable court ruling.

Mrs. Howe and her team were impeccable in every move of my case. She was diligent in every manor og my case form day one. Great communications back and forth as well as with opposing council. Thanks to her expert services I now have custody of my daughter and can't say enough good things about her ...firm. Thank you again for everything you did.

Karen, and the whole team at Brandon Family Law Center, is amazing. They have helped me through two long and drawn out issues and I couldn't be happier with the results. Information was handled quickly. Karen does a great job of level setting and keeping the end goal in mind as she helps you move dow...n the long corridor of family law. As long as I am in this area and need family law counsel they will be the team I trust.

Karen how was just awful from the start. She was extremely unorganized and never prepared. She was always racing to make deadlines and as a result always made ridiculously stupid mistakes. At times she had the wrong names in filings. All of her work is cut and paste jobs. She couldn't even handl...e that. She knew she screwed my case up and spent a fair amount of time covering her tracks. This included numerous lies. I not only fired her but also reported her to Bar Association. As a last kick in the balls I got a bill for $5000 a year later . Ultimately I paid her approximately $25,000 and I was way worse off at the end. RUN FROM THIS LAW FIRM!
