Excellent, Knowledgeable and professional experience

Off the bat Mr. Newman got on my case and provided a wealth of knowledge on Hague, international service, lawsuits and litigation. My matter was specific to Brasil/Brazil. Mr. Newman is a subject matter expert on Hague especially when it comes to Brasil/Brazil law. He always responded quickly/inf...ormed me on any status updates on my case. Great Attorney and would work with him again.

Helping a local non-profit

Howard Newman was the perfect attorney for the non-profit corporation I direct. He was very easy to work with and worked well with the various other attorneys working on our case. Howard is a strong attorney that uses his knowledge and expertise to ensure that his clients are treated the way they des...erve and get what they deserve. He is a straight shooter and will lay out all of your options. I strongly recommend contacting Howard if you are a Director at a non-profit that has found itself in a dispute. As a non-profit, we can not afford to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a legal battle, and Howard knew that. He was able to work out a settlement that was very beneficial for our company. We liked him so much that we will be keeping him on a retainer in case we need him again. Howard is an amazing person to have in your corner.

Knowledgeable and professional

My experience with Mr. Newman was positive from start to finish. I was impressed with his knowledge and experience, but also with his approachable professionalism (a rare balance for many attorneys). His work for me made my life much better and easier, and I would strongly recommend him!

Highly recommended

Mr. Newman defended me over several years in different litigation in different states (Maryland and Florida). Something that impressed me was his ability to outmaneuver opposing counsel (and there were multiple firms and lawyers on plaintiff's side). We won because he is skilled. We may have also ...won because he cares not only about his clients (and their cases) but about litigating fairly and when necessary, very assertively and perhaps aggressively too. Highly recommend.

Excellent Attorney - Listens intently & always acts in client's best interests

Mr. Newman is my highly trusted "go-to" legal advisor/counselor for a range of complex legal problems from financial transactions to appellate work. I, educated as a financial and accounting professional, find Mr. Newman to be a true legal scholar and financial expert. When combining those assets wit...h his exceptional intellect and practical approaches to effectively and efficiently accomplish the client's objectives to the extent possible, he makes the seemingly impossible a reality and finds ways to create value and resolve intractable issues. Always guided by strong ethics and a commitment to his client's best interests, you can be confident this attorney will go to the "ends of the earth" for you. He did for me, he continues to do so and I am grateful.
