Extremely Informative, Sharp and to the point....

Mr. Harris provided detail consultation for me to prepare for LLC business depositions that were critical to closing an estate I was the administrator over. Mr. Harris was very detail oriented and ensured me of the many options I had. There was no pressure; straight legal-based counsel provided. M...r. Harris made my legal decisions easy during my time of bereavement; very patient with me. I would highly recommend Mr. Harris to anyone looking for a Lawyer with great business ettiquette and legal integrity.

Excellent Probate Attorney

Mr. Harris helped our family during the time of a contested probate case. He was very meticulous, ethical and found the best way to settle our father's estate in a manner satisfactory to all involved. He was easy to communicate with and I would highly recommend him for any estate issues. I am extrem...ely grateful he was able to walk us through a very emotional time in a very cost effective manner.

Peace and calm!

Mr. Harris listened and took copious notes at each meeting, then followed them up with research, which he shared with me, as he took the necessary actions required by the divorce process. He was honest about what could and could not be accomplished thru the legal system, and with calm reasoning, hel...ped to find peace with my decisions. I have recommended him to my friends in need of legal services and will continue to do so.

Excellent Rating for Eugene William Harris, Attorney and Counselor

I was fortunate to find an exceptional attorney here in Dallas, Texas. He was recommended to me by my previous attorney who had retired. Eugene (William) helped me on several occasions involving employment negotiations/contracts. He is incredibly ethical, dedicated to assist the client, and his fo...llow through abilities were much appreciated. I have already recommended him to several of my friends who needed a top notch attorney. I will continue to ask for his services in the future if the opportunity arises.

He is extremely knowledgeable about a wide variety of practice areas in the law, and has a calm, but firm, demeanor that is a rarity in our profession today. His zeal in seeking justice for his clients is tempered by the mature wisdom that defines the lawyer as a professional. If I needed a lawyer, Bill would be the first that I would call."

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.
