Mr. Leiner is an exceptional family law litigator and mediator who exhibits a rare combination of the highest level of ethics while providing superior legal representation, and is well known and respected in the legal community. I was diligent in researching an effective attorney, and he was consistently recommended. His expertise and attention to detail is only surpassed by his dedication and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome. Mr. Leiner represented me in a child custody case, and achieved a highly favorable outcome. Family law cases are charged and emotional, and Mr. Leiner remained a calm presence through the storm. While tenacious, he always took steps to resolve and negotiate matters in good faith, so as to avoid personal hardships or unnecessary legal fees. I highly recommend Mr. Leiner as he is thorough, provided excellent communication, was highly attentive to the case, and worked vigorously to protect the best interests of my son.

I found Harris Leiner after talking to a few other attorneys. From the first meeting I felt like Mr. Leiner was unique from the others because he was very attentive to what I needed to say. He has a calm manner that helped with the emotional turmoil of my situation. In general I am against divorce and really did not want to deal with a divorce lawyer or hire someone in this profession. However, after working with him, I have realized there is a critical place for principled family law professionals. He changed my opinion about the profession and has already been recommended to others. When I first met with Mr. Leiner, he told me my goal was virtually impossible. I explained why my situation was so unique and the reason my goals were critical. He then created and executed a plan that achieved my goals. Throughout the process, I felt Mr. Leiner was very fair to both me and the opposing party. As things dragged out and became ugly, he was able to shift from a negotiating point of view to aggressively protect my interests in court. I was always comfortable with Mr. Leiner representing me. He demonstrated he is an expert in the law, even going so far as reading the law to the judge. He was always able to predict the outcome of court, and also able to advise when or why the judge might deviate from his prediction. His ability to predict outcomes went a long way to help me plan my future while still navigating a very uncertain time in my life.
