Happy Client

We were very pleased with Mr. Howie. Every phone call or email was answered in a very timely manner. He laid out all the options and kept us from going to trial. He is a tough negotiator and will fight for you. We got the best possible outcome that we could have hoped for and certainly recommend ...him for any criminal charge that someone may be dealing with. Thank you Mr. Howie!

The Best Attorney in Alabama

Mitchell J. Howie was the most effective, professional, and candid attorney I have ever worked with. He helped me navigate through a tough legal situation where I believed the prosecution was going above and beyond and got the case dismissed by leveraging his knowledge, charisma, and experience. Hire... this man if you want the best results for your legal situation.

BEST CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY IN THE SOUTHEAST

Let's face it: if you find yourself in the unfortunate position of being charged criminally, your life gets turned upside down until the process is over. Mr. Howie has been my attorney for 2 years now. He's been with me from the very beginning. I can confidently say that he treated my case with the ...same care and attention that he would give a member of his own family. And when you find yourself having to do battle with the state, trust me- you WANT a legal warrior. Mr. Howie was fantastic about discussing strategy with me and also giving me the pro's and con's of each decision. He knows the law inside and out, and he is the best litigator that I've ever seen. I compared it to watching him play chess, while the state played checkers. Some attorneys are just trying to take your money- if that's what you want, more power to you. But if you're like me, and want to fight false allegations, Mr. Howie is the attorney you want. He takes his cases personally, and I am proud to call him a friend after our successful fight against the state. Do yourself a favor and hire an attorney that gives you a legal advantage. Hire someone that opposing counsel DREADS going up against in court. Hire Mr. Howie.

BEST DIVORCE AND CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY IN HUNTSVILLE!!!

I would absolutely recommend Mr. Howie any day of the week to anyone who needs either Divorce or Criminal Defense to anyone. I completely lucked out in selecting Mr. Howie and absolutely appreciate what he and Madeline did for me and my daughter. Mr. Howie completely understands the special needs of ...those with military careers and security clearances as well as how legal matters can affect us folks more severely than most. Both my daughter and I will always be appreciative of everything that Mr. Howie and his staff did for us both.

Professional! Quick and to the point !

He was very speedy, professional, and efficient at getting the job done! He and his assistant Madeline, were very prompt and responsive when returning phone calls or emails. The charges were dropped before I stepped foot in court. I am one step closer to seeing my daughter
