Cash bond

I will admit that before speaking to Mitchell Howie I didn't have to much hope that he could win the case. The reason I was doubting was simply because it was a judge order that collect fines and court cost out of the cash bond my father place to get my cousin out of jail. Fortunately, Howie put a g...reat on this case and was able to recover the full amount of cash bond.

The Perfect man for the job

I contacted Huntsville Criminal Defense Lawyer Mitchell J. Howie because I knew he was a recipient of the Top 100 Trial Lawyers Award in 2014 and he was highly recommended as one of the best criminal lawyers in Huntsville. I had never been in trouble before but after hiring Huntsville criminal de...fense lawyer Mitchell J. Howie, I knew I was in good hands. He promptly returned my phone calls and e mails and was able to get all charges against me dropped within 2 weeks of hiring the best criminal defense firm. If you are in trouble with a misdemeanor or a felony I highly recommend Mitchell J. Howie because he is clearly the best criminal defense lawyer in Huntsville!

Your search for a TRUSTWORTHY, competent, experienced Counselor at Law should end right here.

Mitchell, Thank you again for the wonderful work and the absolute patience you afforded me. You have certainly garnered my trust that was once lost by some in the practice who do not posses the integrity offered by your your firm, and especially you. Your confidence was palpable. This gave me ev...ery bit of conviction you were going to do your best, and by the result of our outcome you have not only succeeded in upholding the Constitutional provisions afforded me, but gave me the satisfaction of beating all four of the false accusations I was condemned for. I would recommend your services to anyone who needs representation. Your the best Mitchell. Thank you for being there for both my family and myself and taking what seemed to be an insurmountable problem and reducing it all FOUR false claims, to an absolute non issue, in the tough city courts of Madison.

Client review of Mr. Mitchell J. Howie

Mr. Howie provided me the highest level of client support. He was extremenly knowledgeable and dedicated to my case. He constantly kept me informed and explained all the legal steps we needed to take. He allowed me to dictate the best path for my particular charges and my objective. Mr. Howie ha...s outstanding interpersonal skills and was respected and liked by all parties to include my witnesses and the proscecution team. I recommend Mitchell for all your legal requirments.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS

I hired him for a case involving false charges. He claimed he was capable of handling a trial but immediately tried to make a nonsense deal with the prosecutor against my express wishes. I fired him as soon as he notified me of this and got a competent lawyer. His email conversation with the prosecut...or was not even in complete sentences. You really don't want this guy.

Mr. Eason, We are very sorry you wholly misunderstood the representation you received at our firm during your simple misdemeanor case. We are always ready to try any case for any of our clients and fight hard for all of our clients! We are extremely proud to have attorneys with over 145 FELONY jury trials combined as experience in the firm. We are also proud to have succesfully defended thousands of simple misdemeanor cases like yours. As it appears you have now hired a third lawyer for this case, you can speak with them on how a lawyer is ethically obligated to bring the client all offers from a prosecutor. At any rate, we wish you the best of luck as you move forward with your case and all of your future attorneys!
