Class-A

I found Justin Fox at Thyne Taylor Fox Howard when my stress levels were through the roof. He spoke plainly, laid out what I needed to know, and never once let the conversation drift into legal jargon or sales talk. Every follow-up call and email from the firm felt just as steady—on time, on point, n...o theatrics. He went above and beyond even when he clearly did not have to. The firm’s billing matched the same tone: clear, reasonable, and patient. I paid the balance later than planned, and they gave me room to handle it without a single heavy-handed reminder. Their representation left me much less anxious than when I started. If you want counsel that combines sharp work with genuine respect for the client, Justin, Lacy and the whole firm deliver.

Property Owner

I have hired Justin for Will and Estate Planning along with an Irrevocable Trust. He won a case he represented me on resolving a property dispute. I also regularly consult with him on all of my legal needs.

Highly recommended

We hired Justin to represent us in several landlord/tenant issues we have had in regard to our rental property. Justin was knowledgeable, acted with great efficiency, clearly delineated the process as well as quickly responded to our communications and questions, and stood up for us in court when nee...ded. There was never a doubt when working with Justin that we were in competent and professional hands. We have utilized his services several times now and will unhesitatingly work with him again in the future.

Top notch. Highly Recommend

I have used Justin’s services on will/trusts as well as copyright issues. He is very knowledgeable and really takes the time to explain everything. Highly recommend!

Mr Fox

I hired Justin Fox on multiple occasions and would highly recommend him as an attorney for anyone. His no nonsense approach to law is exactly what is needed to accomplish any task.

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.
