DWI case/ Domestic violence case

Daniel Harris got my DWI dismissed, which is rare in the state of NC. We went to trial for my case, and Daniel did his thing, he made a very good argument and the judge had no choice but to dismiss the charge. Thank you again Daniel Harris for everything you did for me this past year. He also got bot...h my domestic violence charges dismiss as well. I would highly recommend Daniel and Harris law office. You will be hearing from me again to get my record expunge. Patience West

Works hard and very rersponsive

I have never dealt with a more responsive lawyer than Mr. Harris. He was straight forward, and kept me informed through the entire expungement process. When the state took forever to complete my background check, he even took the extra steps to have my expungement expedited by the county court when t...he background finally came back from Raleigh because we had to wait so long. He answered every e-mail in a timely manner and always provided detailed information about the status of my case.

Court case

Daniel was really helpful and responsive during my case. He made sure to attend court for me as promised and worked with me with the attorney fees. He made me feel comfortable to speak with him and spent time understanding my issues. I would definitely recommend him for anyone going through legal tro...ubles.

Excellent Results

I would highly recommend Mr. Harris. He is a true professional with genuine concern for his clients. I found him to be very thorough, kept us informed on all aspects of the case and never failed to respond in a timely manner. Our results were excellent.

Dedicated representation

Daniel handled what could of been a very tragic case for me, and absolutely exceeded my expectations for the outcome of the case. He always kept me up to date with information about the case and was more than welcoming to answer any question I had. He's an exceptional lawyer I recommend to anyone for... whatever issue they may have.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I practice federal criminal defense in Michigan, and I needed a local attorney to assist me in a case in the US District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina. Before finding Daniel, I contacted several attorneys who never returned my call. When I spoke with Daniel, he was willing and eager to assist. He jumped right in, was extremely quick to respond at all times, and is immensely capable. I truly appreciated his professionalism, expertise, and can-do attitude. I would not hesitate to refer future clients to Daniel for federal criminal defense."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
