Testimonials

“The efforts of Marc Howard and his firm Pope & Howard exceeded my expectations many times over. In my twenty-three years of trial practice I have dealt with no co-counsel that help me represent my client with any more competence or energy than Marc Howard and his firm. The ultimate result for the client was excellent and exceeded all reasonable expectations.”

— G. Thorne Stallings, Jr.

"I was referred to Pope and Howard, P.C. by another attorney when I had a stroke in 2004. It was the lowest time in my life, and they achieved a great outcome for my case. While pursuing my case they always treated me with respect and dignity. They even helped me enroll in a rehabilitation program that helped my recovery. They always answered any of my questions and were never too busy to return my calls. I definitely recommend contacting Pope and Howard if you have suffered an injury."
