Howard was referred to me. I'm so glad I made the call. In the early days of my injury, Howard took the time to answer my texts and phone calls and answered all my questions and explained everything in great detail. If you ever need an attorney Howard is the person to call. I will always recommend Howard to anyone who may need.

Curlyn Cajuste, September 4, 2020

Howard is very professional and very pleasant at all times. He was amazing during the entire process of fighting for me and told me not to worry. Once he told me that I knew I made the right choice of hiring him as my lawyer. He kept me informed every step of the way and explained the entire process to me in full detail in a way I could understand. He calls, emails and text you to keep you updated all throughout the process as I was being sued do to a car accident with false accusations. GUESS WHAT??? He called me a few days ago and told me the case was dismissed. He is again AMAZING. I was worried but I felt he was confident that we would win but he did not tell me this. You could just feel the confidence in his voice. I highly recommend Howard because he will fight with and for you until the very end. He is the BEST!!
