Shloime, the only lies have been from you. You did not consult with me--our interactions related to me ENFORCING MY CLIENT's Trademark Rights that you were violating. We did send you multiple cease and desist letters prior to reporting you to Amazon and Amazon taking action against your storefront because of your IP Infringement. Thank you for letting people know we fight for our clients, though. Always appreciate a negative review from an opposing party.

Lifesaver!

After having the worst experiences with family law attorneys in the past, Ms. Alves has been the only attorney that could out me on the path to seeing my son after being crushed in the courtroom for 7 years. I am a very straightforward shooter, as is she and was able to effectively illuminate many of... the inconsistencies used against me in the past. Harmony took the time to understand me and the complex situation I was in with my child and his mother, and set realistic expectations ever step of the way. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing assistance in the courtroom!!!

Knowledgable Attorney

Even just through my free consultation, I could easily tell that Harmony knew exactly what she was talking about. She was very passionate about making sure I understood the law she was explaining to me. I am keeping her number should I need future legal advice and would definitely recommend Harmony t...o all my friends and family because I am confident their case would be in good hands.

Previous client

Harmony was professional, understanding and very thorough in her interpretations of the law. I felt as though she really had my best interest in mind. I will continue to go to her, and recommend you do the same!

Great Family Law Lawyer

I hired Harmony back in February of 2021 cause my ex wife refused to allow me to see my kids. I’m a father of 3 beautiful girls and my ex wife refused to let me see my kids, Ms Alves worked hard for me to be able to see my kids. It was a battle but now I’m able to finally see my kids. If your a fathe...r and are being denied access to your kids hire Harmony she’s a life saver who truly cares about her clients.
