Andrew J. Howard

Senior Attorney - Litigation

Boise, ID

Background

Born in York, PA, and raised in Marshalltown, IA, Andrew J. Howard is a compassionate and skilled Senior Attorney who specializes in family law, estate planning, and business law. Andrew got into law because he truly enjoys helping people work through their problems, and he relishes the intellectual challenge that the practice of law provides. He also appreciates knowing that, as a lawyer, he can assist people through important and trying moments of life. 

Andrew loves making a difference in the lives of typical, hardworking folks who need to protect their assets. He sees his clients as partners throughout a case or matter and strives to make sure they actively participate and are educated during the legal process.

Since 2006, Andrew has practiced law in private law firms and has had in-house corporate counsel and government prosecutor roles. His proudest recent achievement has been winning summary judgment victories for his clients in two separate matters (an employment law context and a landlord/tenant context). By securing summary judgment victories, his clients were saved the time, expense, and uncertainty of proceeding to trial. 

When Andrew is away from the office, he enjoys hiking, playing golf and basketball, and brewing his own beer.
