Responsive and Realistic

I feel very fortunate to have found Lyndsay Howard through a Google search for Dakota County divorce attorney. I felt comfortable with her only a few minutes into the free consultation. The most impressive and comforting aspect of the experience is the prompt responses to my emails. She made it a pri...ority to connect with me right away even though she may not have the answer at the time. I also appreciated her knack for anticipating what the opposing council would attempt to do or should attempt to do. Lyndsay provided clear, realistic expectations and then ended up exceeding them. I highly recommend Lyndsay Howard and her team.

An awesome lawyer

Lyndsay was amazing. She is very easy to talk with, she listened to my concerns and answered every question I asked in a way I could understand. She is very responsive in emails. She did a wonderful job in my divorce. I would highly recommend her.

If you want the best you want Lyndsay

Being a newly single mom of a two year old, I didn’t know where to go to or what to do. And everyone just told me that I should go through the state and everything will be fixed. I was not confident that I could just go in alone to fight for my sons rights. I looked at lawyers all over to hire and Ly...ndsay was the one I found in that sea of mayhem and stress. She always told me how things were and what I can do and what would benefit myself and my son. She always made a point to just be frank about the situation and let me know what I needed to do to be prepared for every step and make sure I was comfortable. Some people say I was crazy to hire a lawyer vs find one for free. But, my son is worth it and Lyndsay was worth it. Her knowledge and attention made me feel that my son was going to get what he deserved no matter the empty threats against us. I would recommend her to any single parent who wants what is best for their child. She will make sure to get you there and be prepared. I am so grateful to her.

Parenting Time Resolution

Lyndsay was excellent. She worked with me to assess my standing and build a case. With her guidance and representation I won a favorable ruling. She is very knowledgeable and straight forward. I would highly recommend her services.

Child custody

My unmarried son needed help with child custody of my grandson. Lyndsay was prompt and extremely knowledgeable. Everything went as we hoped it would. She didn’t waist any time. I highly recommend her as an attorney.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
