Best Attorney for Redstone Arsenal

He really cares about his clients. He listens to what you have to say and explains things thoroughly and makes it easy to understand. If he says he’s going to do something he will. He told me that he was going to get my case dismissed but I had my doubts because of the charge. But he actually got th...e prosecutor to drop the case. I could not be any more thankful for the excellent work he provided. I would recommend him to anyone.

Thanks so much! I know I didn't tell you I would definitely get your charges dismissed as I cannot promise that, but I did promise to give you my best efforts in getting a dismissal and it worked! Glad we got such good results for you! All the best to you in the future!

Mitchell dutifully serves not just the U.S.A., but it's people, too.

Not many people would have taken a case like mine. An ugly domestic dispute with an ex-girlfriend had left me facing some serious criminal charges. I was clearly in the wrong and had no excuse. I knew the details surrounding my arrest would've put off most lawyers, but I was honest about my mistak...es. Mr. Howie quickly recognized this and worked with several other lawyers to remedy my situation via the Pretrial Intervention Program. This is something that is still relatively new in the state of Alabama, but Mr. Howie's knowledge of the program proved to be invaluable. Ultimately, he was able to get my charges dismissed with prejudice. This was more than I could've hoped for. Mr. Howie was calm and polite in his explanation of what I needed to do to complete the program. He kept me in the loop on any court proceedings and was on time for every court date we had to make. Most importantly, he reassured me on several occasions that I would make it out of the ordeal in one piece. What impressed me the most about Mr. Howie was that throughout my case he had also been dealing with a very stressful health situation regarding his young daughter. However, not once did he give up on my case, divide his attention away from it, nor neglect it. He showed diligence throughout the entire process, never appearing distracted, despite how stressful the time must have been for him and his family. This earned my deep respect for the man. Lawyers can have dozens of years of experience, a handful of diplomas and awards, or even faithfully serve our military. But by and far the most important credential for one to have is empathy. This is what ranks Mr. Howie as among the best legal advisors in the state of Alabama. Mitchell J. Howie has a true and tangible desire to help people, something that was apparent to me from start to finish. He reminded me that it is not the mistakes we make that define who we are. It is what we do after them--the steps we take to make up for our failings--that matter the most in our lives.

Excellent Criminal Defense Lawyer

Mitchell achieved the best possible outcome in our case. He saved our son from the dreadful prospect of life-changing consequences by negotiating a solution that was acceptable to all parties.
