I contacted Mr. Howland regarding a landlord tenant issue (In this case I was the tenant). He gave me basic information to determine how and if it was worth pursuing. The short version, our landlord told us varying information on several occasions in regards to the condition of the apartment after our departure. After 1.5 months we still had no resolution, only a check for a half month's rent, sent after 30 days that he called to tell us he would need to stop payment on due to some more damage he was uncertain about. Our main concern being that the landlord was beginning to tack on items like carpet and such and I was becoming very uncomfortable with the direction of the conversations, and informed the landlord of that. After almost two weeks of no response my partner said enough is enough we need to end this. Mr. Howland walked us through the process, reviewed all of our paperwork, advised us of how the process would typically work and began handling it for us. He took the time to listen and understand our concern, and what the best way to proceed was. Mr. Howland drafted a letter outlining the situation which resulted in a very quick, but not adequate response from the landlord. Mr. Howland followed up immediately on the original letter, modifying and reenforcing what was stated in the initial letter. About 15 days of working with Mr. Howland resulted in our issue being resolved, and done so in our favor. Should the need arise in the future to work with an attorney, Mr. Howland will without doubt be my first call.
