Ms. Jana is truly amazing she gave us hope for my husband fought for us and got him home. She never gave up on us and never gave up on my husband. Words can NOT even say enough!! She is a blessing in our lives and will always be in our lives. To any one who is looking for some one who is real and ca...res this is the ONLY lawyer you should have for your case. I would tell any one I know call Ms. Jana she will fight the good fight. Because she truly cares.

A wonderful advocate!

Ms. Harris became a part of my family's life over four years ago. Her legal services were requested due to the incarceration of a very close family member. During those years there were numerous emails, texts and phone conversations. Through those means of communication, I found Ms. Harris to be kind..., sincere, honest and trustworthy. She never made promises of what she could accomplish but made promises of what she would attempt to accomplish. If you need an attorney who will do everything in her power to assist you or a loved one, please use her services. I can personally assure you that during your first contact with Ms. Harris, you will quickly become aware of her heartfelt dedication to help others.

She was incredible

Fearless and brilliant in my opinion!! I have never met a lawyer who worked as hard as Jana. I could have ended up with three felonies. She walked me out with a misdemeanor and a small fine!!!! Rodk

Great attorney

Ms. Harris handled two matters for my family and in both situations she did exactly what she said she was going to do. Her pricing is fair especially knowing the quality of the work she provides. She is thorough in getting to know you, understanding the details of your situation and being upfront a...bout all the possible outcomes. In both situations, she got cases dismissed which was the best case scenario. I would highly recommend her as an attorney!

Highly Recommend

I would highly recommend Ms. Harris to anyone needing a criminal lawyer. She is knowledgeable and professional, as well as compassionate and sensitive. I was charged with a criminal offense that was completely false and she was able to have the case dismissed. It could have had a horrible outcome ...and was indeed a scary situation, but Ms. Harris kept me informed throughout all the proceedings and I was confident during the entire process that she was in control. She also helped me keep my "lady like" composure during the year we worked together assuring me that showing my anger would not achieve desired results. I would like to add that she also has a very respectable reputation among her peers. I would definitely use her again for any of my legal needs.

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.
