He helped me handle a criminal DWI case with ease and always listen to the client to help figure out what is in your best interest

In this review there is no way I'll be able to express just how grateful we are that we found and hired Howard to represent us in court. He's smart, professional, inquisitive and friendly in a way that puts you at ease. Howard was actually the fourth attorney we called as we were making our way through the process of finding someone to help us with a very strange situation and charge. The first three attorneys barely listened and immediately gave advice on how they'd go to court to have charges "reduced". Howard actually got our case dismissed! Why? Because he was thorough and did the work required to be able to present the information. He invited us to the office to discuss the case in detail, I'm pretty sure we spent time beyond his office hours. If we ever need an attorney again, Howard will be our FIRST phone call!

Mr. Long was very thorough in helping me handle my speeding ticket. He gave clear explanations of the process and what to expect. Also, his communication was excellent and he quickly responded to calls and emails.

It was a pleasure working with Attorney Howard Long! He was very personable and easy to talk to. He showed up at court for us so we didn't have to. More importantly, he was able to get my son's ticket completely dismissed without any points on his drivers license! I hope that I never need a lawyer again, but if I do, Howard Long / Browning & Long will be who I hire.

Howard took my call late at night, explained everything to me in detail, welcomed me to join him on the hearing of the case, but when I couldn't make it, he went on his own and not only got my speeding ticket reduced to improper equipment but also got my court costs down to just $50. He really did exceed my expectations!

I would like to thank Mr. Long for handling my case. He was able to get my ticket reduced to an Improper Equipment violation with no license or insurance points. When I consulted with Mr. Long he was very nice & answered all my questions. He also gave me best and worst case scenarios so I would be clear on everything. Thanks again Mr. Howard Long!!

Howard and I had been in touch upon our initial agreement. We did a phone consultation and he explained everything to me. He showed up on my court date on my behalf and ended up getting the ticket dismissed. Highly recommended!

From the second that mr. Long answered the phone, he was very personable and polite. Rather than give me quick answers like he had no interest in my case. Im sure most lawyers get many calls a day for consults. I was very pleased with his tone and we had a good conversation to get to know my situation and the best possible results for my case. He was very attentive and we discussed all possible options for me. I was informed with every step of the way up until the day of my court date and how it was resolved. Def would recommend to anyone and say I was very pleased with the entire process. Thank you once again. Jose
