About Brian
Biography
I'm a criminal defense attorney at heart. I've always rooted for the underdog; the longshot; the person who is weathering the storn. I love the law and in particular the practice of it. I first came to see the power of the law left unchecked in the hands of a government uninterested in its people when I deployed to Iraq. I visited the prisons of Karbala, Iraq and saw what happens when the law isn't upheld. This stirred a deep resolution in me that I always wanted the government to have a check; that there must always be people willing to stand up and compel the government to live up to the law. This is the heart of what motivates me in my practice of criminal defense.

Brian Keith Harris's Lawyer Endorsements
"Brian and I have not only worked together on multiple matters, but we've also been opposing counsel on a few matters as well. Additionally, I've had the luxury of supervising Brian during his initial entry into the AFJAG Corps. It became immediately apparent that Brian posesses an unteachable, innate ability to connect with people. Whether he is advising a client, law enforcement, or persuading a jury, his litigation skills, forethought, and tenacity are second to none. Regardless of his current case, he treats his clients with compassion and dedication, both of which are laking in the law profession today. Without a doubt, I endorse this lawyer."
