Knowledgeable and compassionate

Sam was very prompt in answering texts and provided information I sought at a difficult time. He was knowledgeable and compassionate. I felt he was on my side and fought a good fight for me. He has a bright future in his field.

Great consult & very valuable

Sam was able to look at a situation objectively, gave a great free consultation ( even in just a misdemeanor ticket), and willing to explore many outcomes ! He is solid & experienced. You can tell he has his clients best interest s in mind. Very affordable quotations - a must consult (& hire ) if y...ou need an attorney!

Great caring person.

Mr. Harbison is such a great person. Even though I didnt use his service he was there to guide me and my family. He answered every question with clear clarifications. He kept in touch by calling and answering my texts. He's easy to talk and understanding. He shows compassion and does not intimidated ...like other attorney's do. He helped me throw a very tough time by just listing and consulting. I hope to never use a criminal defenses attorney or have to seek advice but if I must I will definitely keep him in my contacts. Would recommecd him to anyone who needs a good trusty attorney.

Sam Harbison

Recently I was in Arizona for business and got jammed up with the law during my stay. Sam was one of the first few lawyers I reached out to to help me deal with the case and the one I stuck with. Not only can his personality ease your stress about the ticket, but the man is also quite knowledgable wi...th the laws of Arizona. He is charismatic and will work with you should you choose to hire him. I certainly recommend him and his work should you ever have someone represent you in a time of need. Great work Sam.

Most helpful

My situation is odd and Sam with the law firm was more than helpful in guiding me with my problem. He was very nice and easy to talk to. He has a sense of caring for who he is helping and he doesn't care if he is hired or not he just wants you to have all the available knowledge on your current sit...uation. I know that if i ever need to hire an attorney in AZ, Sam with Dwane Cates Law Group will be the first call i make.
