"He agreed to take my case. A week or so later his dad died. I was super respectful because I know how that feels. I waited patiently for him to return from his grieving. I got a hold of him and he told me to follow up at the end of the next week. I did and got voicemail so I left a message. By Tuesday of the next week I hadn’t heard from him so I called and left a message with the secretary. By Friday of that week I called once more and got voice mail again and left a final message. That was a month ago. He never responded. I was literally ghosted by a lawyer. However, he did sound intelligent and compassionate over the phone, and he seems to have a lot of good reviews, so I would not encourage you to make a decision about him based solely on this review."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Derek Howard as my attorney, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. From the very beginning, he was incredibly communicative and kept me informed every step of the way. Mr.Howard demonstrated extensive knowledge and professionalism throughout the entire process. He explained the legal proceedings clearly, answered all my questions promptly, and ensured I understood my options at every stage. I truly appreciated his support and guidance during this challenging time. I highly recommend Mr.Howard to anyone in need of a skilled and reliable attorney."
