Christine was awesome handling my divorce. Explained everything in great detail was very helpful.
Christine and her staff were great to work with and they helped me through a very difficult time. She was patient and understanding. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a divorce attorney. Thank you Christine for everything.
Christine Howard assisted me with a family court matter involving a separation agreement. I cannot stress enough how effective she is in this area. She explained the process in full at every step and kept me aware of the steps and choices. She is professional, knowledgeable, efficient, timely and an expert in her field. I highly recommend her services.
I hired Christine Howard to represent me in a case regarding a child support dispute. Throughout the entire process Ms. Howard proved herself knowledgeable, and thorough. She was patient, kind, and empowered me to do what is best for my family. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
I hired Christine Howard for an uncontested divorce. She made the process smooth and took care of things in a timely manner. At the hearing the Judge even complimented her work, how she always has everything prepared and completed to perfection, and how it is a true pleasure to see her in court. I could not possibly give a compliment comparable to that, but I can definitely attest to all of the above.
Of all the lawyers I have hired, fired, sued, litigated against, and observed in court, Christine Howard stands out as one of the most uncompromising (of her own ethics and integrity), authentic, trustworthy legal professionals, I have ever observed. Her responsiveness to my inquiries, feedback is outstanding and noteworthy. One of her superpowers is her ability to maintain expertise objectivity while also standing in her humanity and heart, to see each client individually, as opposed to the patronizing pomposity and disregard I have observed in most legal professionals. I consulted a few lawyers before hiring her. To me, hiring a lawyer isn't a simple or trivial matter, as the outcome can have major impact on my life. My ex and I worked out the details of our divorce and wanted a lawyer to shape/execute properly. Because I am who I am, the settlement is VERY unusual. Rather than do the pointed finger thing I heard from other lawyers (oh you can't possibly understand/mean this, the law is too complex you will shoot yourself in the foot, be taken to the cleaners, etc.) she just asked me questions like 'have you considered xyz what do you want to do about abc'. Although I was entitled to certain things, she didn't try to talk me out of what I decided was best for me. She simply heard me and informed, then devised the best legal path to what I wanted. She told me with as much exactitude as I desired, what she was doing, why thus and such wouldn't fly, etc. Rendered legal guidance and direction, in simple terms with genuine intent to inform, based on client objectives. Presented strategies and options, risks. I was very glad to observe, she is, almost excruciatingly, detail oriented (which is a hoot for a career technical prof data worshipper to assert) in her attention to my info, docs, filing schedule, mailing, etc I understand too many clients see themselves as victims of a complicated legal system, so act accordingly, giving up all control to their hired expert. I understand why many legal professionals are habituated to objectify (label us) and patronize clients as if their superior legal knowledge gives them complete control even over our objectives. I have had lawyers tell me that exact thing, in essence. 'If you hire me stay out of my way I'll make all the decisions'. To those lawyers: NOPE. Only on legal process/procedures. Only in accordance with MY objectives. It's my legal affairs pal, I have to live with the results! I consider Christine the go to lawyer for clients who want to be treated as if they are in charge of their own affairs - which we truly are. If more lawyers could meld their humanity/expertise like Christine, perhaps the Judiciary wouldn't be so shrouded against legal profession
Christine Howard and her entire support staff provided excellent legal service for me regarding my specific family situation. Everyone was very professional and thorough in every way. I would not hesitate to use Christine Howard again for any legal need I happen to have. Thank you!
Christine made an international nightmare both bearable and complete! Lisa also was a pleasure to deal with! Rocommend me them highly!!
When I started researching who I should use as a divorce lawyer. I called a few different ones. I would leave voicemails only to receive a email response back from one lawyer or no response from others. As soon as I called Christines I may have had to leave a voicemail but Lisa was always there to answer the phone or return calls. From the beginning Lisa and Connie would answer all my questions via phone or email. Christines office gave me the most comforting vibe. This last year has been a long one but Christine, Lisa and Connie have made it super easy and convienent. I never had issues receiving dates for hearings or papers to get signed. Christine is extremely knowledgeable and has been wonderful with my case. If I ever need them again, which in my case, I just may. I’ll definitely call Christine Howard and her team. Thanks for everything!!!
