What makes a law firm stand out from its competition? Its lawyers? Its practice focus? Its philosophy for client representation? At Howser, Newman & Besley, LLC, we believe that each of these factors makes us unique from other law firms . With a team of lawyers whose practices are dedicated to dispute resolution, and a firm philosophy that fosters collaboration in order to produce the best possible results for our clients – we believe that our firm is uniquely structured to provide quality and cost-effective representation in our areas of practice. Much of our practice is devoted to representing corporate clients in litigation, appeals, and alternative dispute resolution (ADR). However, we also represent individuals within our insurance coverage disputes and professional negligence practice areas. We maintain ongoing relationships with many clients who routinely seek our advice regarding pre-litigation strategies, and who regularly face legal disputes as a function of doing business in our modern society. We are committed to providing practical and efficient legal solutions for our clients, whether that means negotiating an informal resolution before a dispute disrupts a cons...truction project, or discretely resolving a professional negligence claim outside of the public eye. However, we also recognize that litigation is sometimes necessary, and when it is, we aggressively pursue favorable outcomes for our clients. We have taken cases to the Supreme Court of South Carolina and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. You can rest assured that if this is what it takes to protect your company’s assets or your professional reputation, we have the team, resources, and dedication required to go the distance.
