Committed and caring

Mr Harrison has handled my divorce case with the utmost care and professionalism. I appreciated his commitment and wisdom while facing the opposing legal team.

True Professional

David is a true professional. We didn't always see eye to eye, but he knows his stuff. He helped me in one of the biggest ways possible...not allowing me to be sucked into the games the other side was playing. He helped me to keep my cool and my mouth shut when It was necessary. I learned a lot about... how to handle myself in court with dignity. It was also obvious that the court system sees him as a stand up guy as well.

A phenomenal lawyer that truly cares about his clients and the law

Mr. David L. Harrison has been my attorney since the beginning of 2010 as I contacted him regarding a tumultuous and abusive marriage that had come to an abrupt end. He has been at my side for over 7 years now as I have gone through the hard process of divorce, child custody and division of support f...or both myself and the children. This included going after assets hidden overseas. He is an experienced lawyer that still to this day fights hard for my family and myself. He provides sound counsel, deep knowledge in family law and a true passion for his work.

Divorce and child custody

David has served as my attorney for the past several years and has represented me on numerous occasions inside and outside the courtroom. David represented me in my divorce and was successful in convincing the court to grant me full physical custody of my two daughters. Davids understanding of the la...w and legal skills make him an outstanding litigator as he well demonstrated in my case. David represented me when my custody case was remanded on appeal and was again successfull in keeping my family together. After returning from a military deployment to Iraq David represented me again in custody case and was successful in keeping my daughters woth me. David is an exprt litigator and well respected, he continues to have my trust and confidence as a trustworthy and competant lawyer.

David has been my lawyer for 8 years now and I've never been let down. He's honest, hard working and truly wants the best outcome for his clients. I've referred many people to him over the years who have had the exact same experience.
