Daniel P. Harris' Reviews

Dan provided effective and helpful advice. He was able to help us strongly defend our claim in discussions with a large multinational corporation. At the same time, he encouraged us to keep the door open to discussions at the right moment.

His willingness to listen closely to our assessment of the dispute and strategy going forward was instrumental in acheiving the desired result.

I have been working with lawyers my whole adult life and Dan is my favorite of the bunch. He is so no nonsense it is sometimes disarming. I am writing this now right after he fought me for a week to do something a particular way, which way ended up working beautifully and saved my company tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees. It is just such a joy to work with such a totally honest professional like Dan. He's just such a great guy.

Mr. Harris handled a settlement case with my former employer, a major shipping and logistics corporation. The corporation downsized me while I was posted overseas in Russia; there were no issues with my performance, it was a purely financial decision but I was left in a difficult position -- the expatriation stipulated sale of our home and vehicles, and we would return to the United States without work or residence. Even worse, Russian law allows employees to be released with only 2 months' salary in this case. I had transferred to Russian contract recently and was very exposed.

I did a web search and contacted a number of firms but Harris-Moure was the only one to respond. Mr. Harris carefully collected materials from me and reviewed them. He asked pointed questions, did not waste time and in short order found communication between myself and the company confirming a defined expatriation term.

Dan told me I had a reasonable case to claim estoppel of my contract with the corporation. I in turn used this information during my negotiations for a final settlement and managed to get a fair offer of over one year's salary.

I recommend Dan Harris very highly. He did a great job staying in touch with me even though he was travelling quite a bit. His advice was spot on and really helped us financially. Finally, he's a man with outstanding character -- he stayed in touch after the settlement, just to see how things are going.
