I retained Kathryn's firm to look into sealing an old criminal misdemeanor conviction for driving on a suspended license when I lived in Chicago years ago. I'm home in New York now so I had a phone consult during which I realized that my case was being approached as a criminal matter and not a simpl...

I was truly blessed in finding Kathryn L. Harry & Associates, P.C. I was pulled over in Naperville, IL and given a ticket for driving 67mph in a 60 mph speed zone. I've never had a ticket since obtaining my Class A Commercial Drivers License (CDL) in 2015, this was a first. Without Ms Kathryn's rep...
"Kathryn is one of the best attorneys I have worked with (and against) in my 19 years as a member of the Illinois Bar. I first met Kathryn when I was an Assistant Cook County State’s Attorney. She was my opponent. I learned quickly that Kathryn is adeft top-notch attorney with razor-sharp wit and unmatched courtroom presence. These skills become immediately obvious to any attorney or judge that encounters Kathryn in the courtroom, hearing room, or across the negotiation table. What may not be as obvious, but is equally important, is Kathryn’s talent for doggedly advocating for her client’s without making enemies. I remember as an Assistant Cook County State’s Attorney, I was inclined to give Kathryn’s clients the best consideration simply because of the force of her personality – putting aside her trial skills and other qualities. When I left the Prosecutor’s Office I wanted to work for her – specifically. Now I do. I give Kathryn my very highest recommendation."
"I enthusiastically endorse Kathryn. She is among the finest and most diligent attorneys in the State."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have worked with Kathryn as opposing counsel on a matter and she has handled the matter very professionally. She has represented her client's position well, fighting for her client's rights when necessary. Yet she has been reasonable in presenting her client's position either in court or in discussions with opposing cousnel, so that the parties can reach a settlement on as many issues as possible. She acts in the best interest of her client and attempts to resolve issues through settlement negotiation but is not afraid to litigate issues that cannot be resolved. She also takes her client's concerns very seriously, bringing them to the attention of the court or opposing counsel when necessary. She is also very mindful of the emotional and financial toll that family law or divorce disputes have on the parties involved and makes an effort to minimize the impact of these diputes on her client. I highly recommend Kathryn"
"Kathryn is sincere and patient like a family lawyer should be; resourceful and talented like all lawyers should be; unlike most lawyers she is a nice person, however. What more reason would anyone need to work with her?"
"Kathryn provides top-notch representation for her clients and is great to work with as an attorney."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. Working with Kathryn, I know first hand that she handles all her client's cases professionally and respects her client's choices. She always takes the time to explain the process at hand, so you understand your options and both the short and long term effects of your decision. If you're looking for an attorney who will handle your case with the same quality of care you would provide for yourself, this is who you should call."
"I endorse this lawyer's work because I know she provides her clients with an aggressive yet affordable defense."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. Kathryn is considered to be aggressive, hard working, and a valuable attorney by her clients. You should be calling this attorney if you are in need of a great lawyer!"
