Howard Slocumb

Mediating Cases for a Fair Resolution

Howard is a lifelong resident of South Georgia, having been raised in Valdosta and graduating from Valdosta High School in 1980.  After attending Mercer University College of Liberal Arts and Law School he returned to South Georgia and began practicing law with a small firm in Homerville.  In 1992 he opened his own office as a general practitioner, with the bulk of cases being personal injury and criminal. Mediations became a part of the practice in 1999, and the number of cases gradually increased until 2013 when his local church requested he become the pastor.  When the time came to step down from this role, the desire to return to the legal field as a mediator led him to restart the practice, this time from the Valdosta office of a lifelong best friend.
