"In my 15 years as a lawyer, there are few I have met as intelligent and competent as Harv. What is clearly his best attribute as a litigator is his ability to take complex issues and synthesize them in a manner that is both persuasive and easy for a judge (or jury) to understand. He also understands and is able to implement effective litigation strategies. I fully endorse Harv as an attorney."
"Harv is an exceptionally hard working, diligent lawyer with good judgment. He has substantial court experience on a variety of topics. He is fearless in court, and a good writer."
"I worked with Harv on a variety of complex litigation, including ADA cases, breach of contract matters, and a complex fraud matter. His criminal trial attorney skills were honed during his many years as an esteemed prosecutor at NYC DA's office and the US Attorney's Office in LA. And he was a civil trial attorney at one of LA's largest litigation firms and General Counsel for a real estate group. He is a skilled cross-examiner who pins down difficult witnesses. Harv also excels at pre-trial motion practice. Last year, he obtained summary judgment on behalf of a plaintiff in a major civil fraud case in NY. Similarly, he successfully obtained demurrer on a punitive damages claim in a personal injury matter. Harv has an incredible perspective on seeing all sides of an issue, and thinking outside the box. He litigates to win and get the best result, but never loses sight of the big picture. Finally, Harv is an exceptional person who cares about doing the right thing for his clients."
"I have known Harv Anand for 20+ years, since our days in law school. He is committed to his clients, to excellence in his work, and to the highest standards of integrity. I unequivocally and enthusiastically endorse Harv."
"I previously practiced in the same office with Harvinder Anand for several years and conferred with him almost daily about a wide variety of legal issues. Harv's experience, seasoned professional judgment, litigation instincts, and reputation in the legal community are great assets to his clients. In litigation, Harv has outstanding attention to detail and makes arguments in an aggressive and concise manner that will position you will before any court, agency or forum. I endorse Harv, because he handles his client's matters in a zealous and knowledgeable manner while maintaining the highest degree of professionalism, care and personal integrity."
