Firm Summary

Jonathan Howell knew he wanted to help injured people after interning at a major injury law firm in Los Angeles.

Before that, he had worked as a computer programmer and intended to go to law school to work on legal/tech issues.

But that plan changed after he helped refinery workers injured by a large explosion. He would talk to their families about how the injuries affected the workers. The refinery had high-end lawyers doing everything they could to avoid responsibility. Jonathan felt a real sense of accomplishment when the case was resolved for the workers.

After that, Jonathan knew his calling was to help injured people or families that lost a loved one.

Health is one of our greatest assets and it is important that people are properly compensated when their health is unfairly and negatively affected.

Jonathan Howell exclusively represents people who have been hurt or lost a loved one due to negligence.

Prior to forming Howell LLP,  Jonathan joined a Century City firm founded by two ABOTA members. There, he handled injury cases through all stages of litigation including trial.

He has obtained multiple verdicts and settlements in excess of $1,000,000.

He was nominated as a Consumer Attorney Association of Los Angeles “Rising Star” after successfully winning 3 difficult trials back to back.

Jonathan has been listed in Super Lawyers since 2013. He has also authored articles for The Advocate magazine and Los Angeles Lawyer magazine.

Jonathan has represented individuals against the largest corporations, including international hotel chains, airlines, and government entities from the City of Los Angeles to the United States of America. He has handled cases in state court, federal court, and in a tribal court involving an Indian Casino. He has experience handling cases in other states including federal court in Hawaii and state court in Montana.

Jonathan has spoken about legal issues as well as written a number of articles, published in legal periodicals. He has been recognized by his peers and has been designated a Super Lawyer. He was also nominated as a rising star by the Consumer Attorneys Association of Los Angeles.

When not practicing law, Jonathan spends time with his wife and kids. He enjoys hiking and surfing.
