Great staff

First and foremost I would like to say that working with Andi was such a great experience. When we first hired Genie Harrison Law we needed help and needed help fast. They responded quickly when we contacted them and Andi was always quick to respond to any and call questions and concerns we had. They... fought for us to the very end and helped us to get justice. Highly recommend hiring them for your legal needs. Everyone at the office we dealt with showed nothing but kindness to us while not being a pushover to the other side. I hope that I never need you again, but if I do, I know where to turn.

The very best

It's with great pleasure that I write this review about my experience with Genie Harrison's law firm. My case and review differ a bit from many of the others in the fact that I am a man, yet someone who experienced the same situation as many of the women Genie's firm has represented. When I m...ade the decision to move forward, I absolutely knew I would only do so with the very best. From the very start, Genie Harrison Law stood out from the other attorneys I contacted. An almost immediate response to my initial query was followed by a call from Jennifer, her intake specialist. Every member of Genie's team was exemplary on every front, always managing expectations and responding if not immediately, then in short order. Andie was the attorney assigned to my case. She is brilliant, energetic and knowledgeable; everything you could hope for and would look for in an attorney. Also, she was very patient and painstaking in explaining details, reasoning and strategy. She would call whenever necessary, making me wonder sometimes if she ever took a day off. Then there was Genie herself, a dynamo of a leader, a formidable attorney, a relentless and tireless advocate on my behalf. And every interaction took place with grace and a charisma seldom seen these days. I would receive emails from her on Sunday evening. When something needed to be done, no one rested until the work was finished. I was more than impressed. In all stages of the litigation, each step was explained and decisions were made based solely on what was the best protocol to follow for me. I always felt like I was put first, my well-being was always the priority at any given point. Going through this kind of situation is extremely stressful, to say the least. But going through it with the professionals at Genie Harrison's firm, made it tolerable and humane. I will always be grateful they were on my side. XOXO

Genie Harrison and everyone at her firm are highly competent, fierce, thorough, and empathetic. As soon as you feel that your rights are being violated, contact GHLF right away. Do not hesitate!

Excellent

Genie and her team definitely made me feel comfortable and in good hands every step of the way. They kept me up to date with every single aspect of my case. Their professionalism and work ethics always made me feel prepared and stress free. They are really good with following up with you and not proc...eeding to making any decisions unless I approved or gone over options with them first. THANK YOU GENIE, SHERRI, and MICHELLE. It was a pleasure working with you guys, and I’m most definitely happy with the whole outcome of my case. I most certainly recommend them as great lawyers.

Best In Town!

Simply put, Genie Harrison has exceeded every one my expectations! In fact, she renewed my faith in attorneys. I found her to be extremely knowledgeable, but most importantly, she is a fighter and protects her clients. I could not imagine being represented by anyone other than her and her firm. I... found her to be extremely honest, regardless of the situation. In addition, not only did Genie take the time to get all of the facts in the case, she then spent the time it took to learn who I was, what I was about and the truth of my story. There were times when I felt that she had a better understanding of the facts and my story than I did. That was a very comforting feeling. On top of that, Genie took the time to treat me like a person, not like a "client". Genie was consistently responsive to my calls/emails and never allowed me to feel disconnected from the events or status of the case. Her partners and staff make a wonderful team that are always "pulling in the same direction" together! I could go on and on, but hopefully these comments give you a solid understanding of how good she and how highly I recommend her. I cannot imagine anyone being disappointed with her as their counsel. She is a woman of character and that is very important when you are fighting for the truth!

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.
