James B. Howard

Mr. Howard handled my divorce for me. He is a true professional. I was always informed of my rights and allowed to make the choices that I felt were best for my situation. At no time did I ever feel that he didn't have my best interest in mind. Everything was handled in a professional and timely mann...er and with dignity and respect. Jim is a true credit to the legal profession and I would gladly recommend him to anyone without hesitation!

Charged with assault, I was referred to Mr. Howard by a family friend. Mr. Howard meet with me and my parents. He listened, advised and encouraged. Very down to earth and non judgmental. Mr. Howard was very accessible, he explained each and every step and was present at each court appearance. I... liked the fact that he saw me for the individual that I was and went to work for my well being. His knowledge of the law has allowed me to receive a sentence that in the end will not affect me in the future and will result in a clean slate after completing my probation period.

I recently went through a divorce in which both myself and James Howard believed would slightly challenging, when dealing with my ex as well as her family. Other than a few phone calls for information and maybe an hr total in his office, that is all I was needed for. He handled contacting her and mad...e sure she signed everything previously to court, so we weren't forced to see each other at all. James looks out for your best interest in every situation and he will do the best he can to make things easier for both parties. He has years of experience as a defense lawyer as well as serving over ten years as a kent county judge. It was clear to me that he does not represent people for the paycheck, but rather to help those in destress and need.

I came to James at a highly vulnerable time in my life. I came to him for council on a divorce I really did not want. He listened and gave wise council. He was sensitve to my needs and handled my difficult husband with great character. He ALWAYS returned my phone calls promptly. He was very organized... and prepared at the hearing. He also prepared me for what to expect at the hearing making my experince very smooth. I was highly satisfied with James and will hire him again for ANY need in the future.
