Howard M. Shanker came highly recommended to our group and we were not disappointed. He c communicated well with our neighborhood group. Most of all, he was straightforward in explaining legal procedure with our situation and we trusted his opinion implicitly.

Can you give someone 6-stars? Howard Shanker is representing our community in its fight against a federal highway project. He truly cares. But while his heart is in the right place, his experience, guidance and steady hand have proved to be some of the only tools we have when the politicians and officials we elect and pay for fail to represent citizenry. Howard has helped us navigate the complicated regulations and proper proper regulatory approaches. He's smart, and he's good at his job. He is a true defender of the common man, and we can't recommend him enough.

Ms. Shanker proved to be a valuable asset in dealing with my situation. He was familiar with the various laws relating to my case and was able to provide me with reference material for my review. He did an excellent job of compiling a plethora of data into a cohesive response and covered all of the important areas. He also was a pleasure to work with - both professional and easy to understand. He was compassionate to my situation and determined to work toward the best possible outcome. He also was so organized and quick to complete our response. I would definitely recommend him to future clients.
