Posted by anonymousThu Mar 19 2009

Howard provided excellent service on a collection matter and got the client to pay quickly after I had spent months trying to collect. He was very efficient and his fees were quite reasonable.

Somair Alam, General practice Attorney on Feb 13, 2017
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

An exceptional litigation attorney whose reputation speaks for itself. Highly recommended lawyer.

Jonathan Franklin, Criminal defense Attorney on Jun 9, 2013
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I endorse this lawyer.

Cameron Fredman, Litigation Attorney on Sep 29, 2010
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I endorse this lawyer's work, not merely as a fellow lawyer in the community, but in its capacity to inspire his son to pursue a career in law. (Yes, I'm biased, but so be it.) He is an exceptionally dedicated attorney, a role model, and hands-down, the lawyer anyone with a concern for the outcome of their dispute should want in their corner. Two thumbs up!
