In 2005, I founded Equinox Business Law Group, a law firm that provides outside General Counsel services to closely held businesses.  The vision is to break down the many barriers that keep businesses from leveraging the value of good corporate counsel and create an environment where we engage regularly with clients to proactively grow their businesses..

Because our lawyers are also business people with experience in starting, operating, and exiting businesses, they are able to see the business implications of a decision and offer practical alternatives and solutions based on the goals and objectives of the business.

I started practicing law prosecuting misdemeanor and felony cases in Douglas County, OR.  I then opened my practice in Jackson Hole, WY where we focused on civil litigation and criminal defense.  Following our relocation to King County, WA, we have decided to focus on criminal defense (primarily DUI and Drug Possession/Distribution).  Our passion is providing our clients with the best defense available to them at a fair price.

I provide counsel to small businesses owners in an array of matters that include Business Formation, Contract negotiations, Complex commercial transactions, Intellectual Property (Trademark, Copyright & Trade Secrets) and Commercial litigation. In addition, I assist individuals and families as they navigate through the often complex and emotional process of Estate Planning and Probate law; and advise local area talent in the field of media law relating to Copyright and Right of Publicity.. As a near life-long resident of the the Pacific Northwest, I am an avid fly-fisherman, rock climber and devoted Husky fan. I also enjoy golf and travel.

I have devoted my career to representing individuals who have been injured as a result of the negligence of others.  I am committed to achieving justice for my clients and take a great deal of pride in providing aggressive legal advocacy for injured individuals in a broad range of cases, including catastrophic injury, wrongful death, brain injury, orthopedic injury and spinal injuries.  I have experience handling matters involving motor vehicle collisions, slip and fall incidents, unsafe premises incidents, negligent road maintenance and/or design and light aircraft crashes.. Although I have been doing this type of work for many years, I have never lost sight of the fact that each case is unique because each client is unique.  I enjoy providing creative and imaginative solutions tailored to the individual needs of each client.

I have called the Pacific Northwest home since before I could speak.  After graduating with a B.A. from the University of Washigton, I attended Seattle University School of Law where I graduated Cum Laude.  Most of my free time is spent outdoors - hiking, golfing or camping. Travel and food are also passions of mine, although, most of my travel revolves around food.

I have been in practice since 1982, upon graduating from the University of Puget Sound School Of Law (now Seattle University School of Law) and have been in sole practice for about 20 years, focusing on plaintiff's personal injury litigation. I am a member of the Washington State Bar Association, King County Bar Association, Washington State Association for Justice and the American Trial Lawyers Association. I am a former member of the Board of Governors of the Washington State Association for Justice, have written and lectured extensively on the subjects of insurance law and the law of negligence claims (torts) as well as many aspects of litigation practice. I have obtained excellent results for my clients including, for example, a $3.8 million settlement of an insurance bad faith and legal malpractice case, a $500,000 settlement in a failure to diagnose cancer with leg amputation, and nearly $800,000 for a shattered ankle from a fall off defective scaffolding.. I am admitted to practice before all the courts in the state of Washington as well as the United States Federal District Court , the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, the US Bankruptcy Court and the US Court of Federal Claims. I am also a 2003 graduate of the Gerry Spence Trial Lawyers College. In addition to my skill and experience in the areas of insurance and personal injury trial law, I have significant background and experience in bankruptcy and commercial litigation.

I have a master's degree in special education and I have worked as a special education teacher and then educational consultant for 20 years before law school. Since law school I have devoted my practice to representing parents and children in all areas of school law for students through high school. This has included representing parents at IEP meetings, 504 meetings, discipline hearings, due process hearings, and then appeals to federal court.  I also help parents become guardians of their disabled children turning 18 years old.

I focus on advising closely held business owners and individuals regarding their business planning, shareholder and partner agreements, as well as business and real estate transactions.  I have extensive experience in mergers and acquisitions, shareholder buyouts/dispute resolution, commercial real estate, asset and stock purchases, commercial finance and related transactions, private placements, and executive compensation, as well as in reviewing and drafting complex business agreements.. How I Serve Clients:. I focus on listening to what clients want, and providing cost-effective advice so that clients can make good decisions.   In most instances clients do not want lengthy, expensive memos about their matter; rather they seek information about risks involved so that they can make informed business decisions.. I regularly visit my clients at their workplace, and take the time to learn about their businesses, company objectives, strategies, and opportunities.   By understanding the business objectives of clients, I am better able to provide pro-active advice in light of their business strategy.. I, and our firm, seek to be long-term, trusted legal advisors for our clients.  Fostering long-term relationships is beneficial for clients, as legal spend can be reduced and services and advice can be provided more efficiently.  When a new matter arises, understanding the business objectives of clients enables us to quickly identify possible solutions that will be consistent with these business objectives.

I began my career in 1986 as a criminal prosecutor for Pierce County; since then I have successfully tried numerous jury and bench trials. Since entering private practice, I have continued to focus my practice in representing parties in condemnation actions and other real estate cases.. Additionally, I act as general and special counsel to a number of jurisdictions thoughtout the State.. My personal hobbies are cycling, golfing, theater, music and films.

I am proud to be an attorney.  My staff and I are with professional and caring people.  Every day I advise and represent people as if my life depended upon it. As you can see I have many years of experience as a prosecutor, defense attorney and as a faculty member with some of the very best legal education groups in the country.. Give me a call, I am available to help you.. My clients are, with very few exceptions, fine people who have been placed in a difficult situation or injured.  A person who has been injured by negligence or a person charged with a crime needs a loyal, hard working attorney who will advise them candidly with their best interest in mind.. Over the years, I have learned a lot about the mechanisms of accidents, injuries and illnesses. I work with my clients, professional investigators, physicians and other experts to understand everything about my client's situation. This way I can give the highest quality advice and representation to the people who have retained me.. You can put your case and your trust in me.. Howard S. Stein

I am an attorney whose area of practice is limited to injury and death cases.  At a very young age, I felt a strong sense of consumer advocacy and justice.  My extensive pre-medical background at the University of Washington familiarized me with the sciences, specifically the human anatomy and the mechanism of injury.  Therefore, given my personality and educational background, personal injury law is natural fit for me.  I truly enjoy the challenge of working on catastrophic injury cases, and am constantly impassioned by the satisfaction I feel from helping people.

I am a life-long resident of Washington. I have been working in estate planning/ probate practice for nearly 8 years. I enjoy helping clients navigate the estate planning and probate proceses.
