The absolute WORST WORST

Wish I would have gone and read the complaints against him on this site and the fact that he was suspended by the BAR. Save your money and your troubles, this is the most disrespectful, unprofessional , rude individual that can exist. Like everyone else says , all he cares about is his upfront paym...ent for services he will not fulfill the correct way, his lack of basic professionalism will cost you much more in the long run, not just financially but emotionally. He is a combination of Randy Quaid and Tom Seizmore during their cracked out times. Save yourself and find somebody else.

The attorney you want as opposing counsel!

This guy is a clown and I'm glad he was my opposing counsel. He is incompetent and immature. He clearly doesn't know family law and attempted aggressive scare tactics which were a complete joke. He eventually withdrew from his losing case based on lies but he still left a lasting impression on me to ...warn the world not to hire this idiot.

Jeff is my hero!

Jeff has been representing me for the past few years on all my child custody issues. He always wins. I’m forever grateful for him getting me primary custody and settling any issues whenever they arise. Hire him.

Great Attorney

Jeffrey Harris was the only attorney that not only answered my call at 8pm on Friday, but also gave me advise on how to proceed until I could meet with him. Jeffrey guided through a difficult child custody case, acting on behalf of my son and I to get full custody of my son and be able to keep him sa...fe. I highly recommend Jeffrey Harris, he will help you get the best results possible. Kent

Great attorney

Mr. Harris really helped me through my process. I was stalling with my case by trying to do it myself but the emotions always got in the way. With his help, I was able to get everything resolved within 6 months. He stood by my side and gave me great advise on what would work and he did his best to re...solve the case to my best interest. The moment I met up with him about the case, I knew I would be able to move on with my life. Mr. Harris is unlike any other lawyers who try to suck up your money with any questions you have, he even helped me with some legal questions on some unrelated matters. If I could afford to have him on my retainer, I would totally do it. Thanks for everything!
