Lawsuit for recovering automobile accident damages

Scott Howard did an excellent job on my lawsuit. I was hit by a party who was underinsured. Mr. Howard directed me in obtaining medical records we needed to recover financial damages to my car as well as myself. He stayed in touch via email and phone calls. I would recommend Mr. Howard for legal... services.

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.
