About Howard
Biography
I began going to Courthouses when I was a young child. Sometimes to pull books; sometimes to watch trials. I have wanted to practice law since that time. I like this profession. I handle cases involving criminal defense; DUI; personal injury; automobile accidents; insurance claims; and divorce and custody.
I graduated from Birmingham-Southern College in 1997, and I graduated from Cumberland School of Law at Samford University in 1999. During the Summer of 1998, I studied International Law at Durham University in Durham, England.
I have offices in Decatur and Huntsville, Alabama. Each case is different. I would be happy to speak with you about yours.
