Excellent, honest, professional and efficient...

I have employed Harlan as my personal attorney on several different occassions over the past twenty years. Harlan has always proven to be competent, honest, attentive, resourceful and thorough with every case I assigned to him. Family law, business law, personal injury and real estate matters: he has... always delived results that were both satisfactory and timely.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
