Top-Notch

Lyndsay checks all the boxes you're looking for in a Family Law attorney. She is a results-oriented problem-solver, she takes the time to listen to and understand what her clients need, and she is easy to talk to. When I came to her, I had a lot of anxiety due to how complicated my situation was. Lyn...dsay worked with me to identify and clarify my goals, she helped prevent me from making bad or questionable decisions along the way, and proposed alternate solutions for consideration that I hadn't known were possible until she suggested them. She is also very good at coaching people at how to make certain compromises while still achieving your ultimate goals. Lyndsay really looks out for her clients. You can't always control the results of how your individual case is going to go, but with Lyndsay you can definitely count on having exceptional legal representation.

Pitbull all the way

I needed expert legal counsel for my divorce. I met with two other lawyers before her, and they paled in comparison to her compassion and understanding. She was very up front about the whole process; but most importantly, she was able to explain all the technical nuances the law likes to camouflage. ...She’s knowledgable and doesn’t sugar coat anything.

A Trusted Legal Partner

If your divorce process is anything like mine, then you have lost a trusted partner in your ex-spouse, and you may be dealing with a combative and destructive ex-spouse. As the decisions you make now will definitely affect your future, the importance of finding an exceptional legal professional to p...roperly advise you can not be overstated. Lyndsay Howard has been and is that professional for me, and I give her the highest recommendation to you.

Fabulous!

I hired Lyndsay about 6 months into a drawn out divorce battle. Immediately upon hiring Lyndsay things were going. Finally action! All thanks to Lyndsay! Even with complete lack of action and response by opposing counsel, Lyndsay had my divorce finalized in 2 months!!! She answered every email quick...ly, was so professional, worth every penny!!

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.
