Very knowledgeable
I first consulted with Evan. He listened and explained all options. Very knowledgeable in the area required. Would definitely recommend to others.

Very quick and professional response
He responded to my question very quickly and gave me advice when I had none. I now have a better plan than I did before.

Smart, helpful, and timely
Mr. Howard got back to me the same day I contacted him and got right to work on my case. He was also very accommodating and fit me in to his schedule quickly (he even helped me on a Saturday). I would definitely recommend him!

Awesome lawyer
He was the only lawyer that offered to help me out instead of writing me off. Even offered to travel 4 hrs to represent me in court. In case I couldn't afford his services, he said he could recommend lawyers in my area. All around great guy and very knowledgeable.

Awesome corporate attorney
Went through a 5 year divorce involving my company. Evan came in and discovered corporate issues my or own divorce attorneys didn't find. Came on as co-counsel in the divorce to handle the business issues and have kept him on as counsel for my company. You can't go wrong with him, he cared about my issues and fought for exactly what I wanted without question.

Expensive, Unresponsive, and Slow
I wanted to really like this law firm. These were my second lawyers for my divorce, I gave them lots of opportunities and excuses. "I know you are very busy..." etc. Ultimately, I've asked both Evan Howard and Derek Haake to withdraw from my case. I see the good reviews here and I just recommend you get a written contract with them. They don't specialize in family law and have a great spiel so just only look at lawyers that specialize only do family law. Maybe they are great at low conflict divorce cases that don't have many complexities but sometimes this law firm took weeks to email a response. They don't respond to text messages reliably, most of the time they do return phone calls in a timely manner (most of the time).
Mr Howard, more so than Mr Haake did respond to phone calls and emails regarding my case fairly quickly (most of the time), towards the end I don't know if Covid had something to do with it but they just stopped being helpful. They stopped responding to my requests in a timely manner.

"It was my pleasure to have Evan on board as an intern at my office. Mr. Howard was very professional and diligent. His solid work has been missed and he would be an asset on any case due to both his desire to serve and his desire to better his own knowledge of the craft."

"Evan was an intern for the Jackson County Public Defender's Office and a Teaching Assistant for my Trial Advocacy class. In both capacities, he proved himself to be extraordinarily industrious and compellingly passionate. He is a lawyer who is both goal-driven and client-sensitive. I am proud to call him a colleague now."

"Evan has worked closely with me on a number of serious criminal matters. He was meticulous with his research and his writing received the praise of several judges. I look forward to working with him in the future and his clients should rest assured that they are in good hands when they hire him. I strongly endorse Evan."
"I highly recommend Evan. He is an incredibly talented lawyer who has great attention to detail and is willing to work tirelessly to explore all possible avenues for success for each client that he represents."
