Timely communication and painless process

I worked with Lyndsay on a pre-nup agreement and she was great to work with. Her communication was always prompt and she ensured that I had a full understanding of the agreement, while advocating for my specific interests. I appreciated her willingness to talk through questions face-to-face (via Zo...om, of course, there's a pandemic folks) and her efficiency in getting this agreement in place.

Job Well Done

Lyndsay was great in handling my recent divorce modification. All of my questions and concerns were addressed in a timely fashion, even in the midst of the world pandemic crisis. In what could have proved to be a long and difficult ordeal, she reviewed the facts, gave me good direction as to what my ...best options would look like, and the case was able to be brought to conclusion without the need for mediation. Job well done! Thank you, Lyndsay.

Highest Recommendation

I worked with Lyndsay on a post-nuptial agreement and five years later she assisted us with our divorce. She has my highest recommendation due to her knowledge, savviness, responsiveness and most of all her caring nature. She helped make a very tough situation go as smooth as it could.

Lyndsay fought hard for me and my son.

I had been to family court a few times over the years, while trying to adjust a custody arrangement after my divorce. I had used a competent lawyer in the past, but was frustrated that I wasn’t getting what I needed. I made the decision to use Lyndsay Howard to represent me instead and she was grea...t. I felt very comfortable while in front of the Judge with Lyndsay and knew that she had my best interests in mind. I know that had I tried to represent myself, I wouldn’t have gotten the outcome me and the family desperately needed for the well being of my son. Lyndsay fought for me and now my son lives with me full time and is doing much better. I will always recommend her services and you can be assured she’ll do what she can and fight for you. The most impressive thing about her work, was that she was able to negotiate favorable terms for me and my son, while avoiding a costly trial. I often thought that men didn’t get a fair shake in court, but with her by my side, I felt like the playfield was leveled.

Simply the BEST!!

Where do I begin? From the moment I met Lyndsay I knew I was in good hands. Not only did she provide me the best service for my child custody case that money can buy, she fought with everything she had and also made sure I was aware of my options at all times. I genuinely felt like my best interests ...were always considered and she was honest every step of the way. I would recommend her 100% to anyone considering an attorney that will fight hard for their case!!
