Awesome Attorney, very hard working!.....Got my case Dismissed!

He is an awesome and trustworthy attorney. I was referred to him by a bff and he and his staff worked hard on getting my case dismissed and guess what? DISMISSED! My situation was horrific for me, but he worked hard and put my mind at ease when he communicated to keep me informed on my case throughou...t the whole process. He will always get referred by me, great attorney and great staff!

Case Dismissed - Excellent Attorney

I met Justin Harris in 2015 when I retained his previous firm where he was the lead attorney on my DWI case. Upon his departure, I chose to stay with Justin - best decision I could have made! Over the next 23 months, Justin was in constant communication and by my side for the duration - he's very a...ccessible, always answered or returned my calls/texts promptly. He explained every option clearly and kept me advised of changes in courtroom procedures, legal policies, etc. and how they could possibly affect my case. Having won my initial license suspension hearing, I was allowed to keep my drivers license and he guided me through the steps needed to stay in compliance with the courts. The arrest/charge happened at a time when I already was overwhelmed with a pending divorce, employment change, etc. There were several times when I was overwhelmed and felt like giving up, taking a plea just to be done with it all. Justin not only encouraged me to stay strong, but clearly explained the merits behind his advice. He spoke with my family members when they had questions, he didnt let me fall when everything seemed to be crumbling around me. I am so thankful for his help and would recommend him as an excellent attorney. He is extremely knowledgeable of the law. He has integrity and is respected in the legal community as made obvious to me by the demeanor and repor during courtroom interactions. And he's simply a nice guy,

He's a really good lawyer he took his time but he knows what he's doing he finds the way to win your case. I would highly recommend him ... I know his rate are a little high but is worth it ..

Professional, Knowledgeable, Accessible, Capable

I consulted Mr. Harris on some violations I had received from the City of Houston. After an informative, seemingly honest, and free consultation, I decided to utilize his services in my quest to have charges dropped. Although his law clerk, Ray, has been helpful several times throughout this process..., Mr. Harris doesn't just shove responsibility to his clerk. He's hands on. His expertise resulted in 3, out of 4 charges being completely dropped, the 4th charge being reset, even with a failure to appear and warrant. He is still assisting me on the last charge, of which I fully trust his advisement. Reasonably priced and there when you need him, I will retain his services in the future.
