Where is Howard K. Stern now and what does he do for a living?

Howard K. Stern was one of the most prominent lawyers in the United States, best known for representing the late Anna Nicole Smith in various legal battles, including the highly publicized custody battle over her daughter, Dannielynn.

However, in recent years, Stern has largely retreated from the public eye, leaving many to wonder whatever happened to the once-prominent lawyer.

Stern’s tenure as Anna Nicole Smith’s lawyer began in 1999, when the former Playboy model hired him to represent her in a lawsuit against her deceased husband’s estate. The case dragged on for years, with Stern fighting on Smith’s behalf in both state and federal courts.

In 2006, tragedy struck when Smith’s son, Daniel, died of an overdose while visiting her in a hospital. Shortly thereafter, Smith herself died of a drug overdose, leaving behind her newborn daughter, Dannielynn.

Stern became embroiled in a bitter custody battle with Smith’s estranged mother, Virgie Arthur, over Dannielynn’s guardianship. The case attracted widespread media attention, with DNA testing eventually proving that Smith’s former boyfriend, Larry Birkhead, was Dannielynn’s biological father.

After the custody battle ended in 2007, Stern largely retreated from the public eye. He briefly made headlines in 2009 when he was charged with conspiring to provide drugs to Smith in the years leading up to her death, but he was eventually acquitted of all charges.

Since then, Stern has largely kept a low profile. In a 2016 interview, he revealed that he had moved to Texas and was working as a corporate lawyer. He also spoke about his ongoing love for Smith, saying that he still thought about her every day.

Despite his relative anonymity in recent years, Stern’s legacy as one of the most high-profile lawyers of the early 2000s remains intact. His role in the Anna Nicole Smith saga will likely continue to fascinate legal scholars and pop culture enthusiasts for years to come.
