Jamie Nichole Harris

The law office of Jamie N. Harris was a blessing to me. I was introduced to Jamie thru a friend of mine, and boy am I thankful. I talked to about 10 lawyers before I had a chance to talk to her. Most of the lawyers were skeezy and tried to scare me. They also tried to nickel and dime me. Jamie H...arris gave me a flat rate with payments. In the end Jamie got a result better than i expected. Her attention to detail in the police report was amazing and she saw things I would have never saw. I highly recommend The Law Office of Jamie N. Harris.

Jamie was a referral from a friend who used her years ago for a bankruptcy. I needed a criminal attorney and my friend told me to call Jamie's law office. Jamie told me she did criminal law now and no longer did bankruptcy and so after looking at many positive reviews I hired The Law Office of Jami...e Harris for my case. Jamie listened and actually investigated the issues I asked her to investigate. She didn't over charge me and showed up to every single court appearance except one. She called me the night before my third court date and told me she had to hire another attorney because she was stuck in a trial. Jamie worked hard on my case and in the end she was able to reduce it to an infraction with a small fine. I am very pleased with the service I received from The Law Office of Jamie Harris and recommend Jamie to everyone.

Jamie Harris is a great attorney. I wanted to fight for custody due to some "issues" I saw with them. I knew my kids were not being treated right by their mother and her family but could not prove it. Every time I left court I felt drained and was losing sleep. I saw Jamie's ad in a magazine and t...hought "hey a free consult, why not". Jamie and her staff explained to my why I was not prevailing and I learned that I needed to hire a private investigator, and I had to stick to facts and not argue based on my emotions. The Law Office of Jamie N Harris helped me for a flat rate on a limited scope basis (my income was limited and I needed to get past one hurdle) and hiring her was the best decision I have ever made (besides having my kids). I am now working WITH the mother of my children instead of against her and I am able to sleep now. Thanks Jamie!

I would highly recommend Ms. Harris to anyone in need of representation in a civil or criminal courtroom. A good friend of mine found himself in custody earlier this year charged with an offense he had not committed. As the bond in his matter was high, I acted on his behalf on the outside and retaine...d Ms. Harris' law office to represent him. Prior to Ms. Harris' entry into the case, my friend had sat in the Santa Clara County Jail for 5 weeks-his Public Defender had moved to have his bond lowered, but the Judge refused to do so. Four days after Ms. Harris took over, the Judge granted my friend's release without bond. Three weeks later, the case against my friend was dismissed. I realize that everyone's issues are different, but I can say that Ms. Harris is very sharp and a skilled advocate for all her clients.

I don't know much about what goes on in bankruptcy or DUI cases, but I do know what has happened in my own family law case. I came to Jamie through a friend's referral and on the coat tails of being hoodwinked by another attorney who, REALLY did not give my divorce case the attention it needed, and ...that previous attorney did not respond to my concerns and questions in any timely manner. Eventually I had to let that attorney go for over charging me when she was getting nothing done. Jamie heard me out on what I needed to accomplish and what my previous attorney failed to do for my case. Jamie didn't smooth talk me, but simply listened and related to another human being who was caught in a difficult circumstance. She picked up the slack on my case and got the ball rolling again. In court she was on the mark about addressing and resolving the issues I expressed were important to me. She got me the results I was after. What I didn't realize (as probably most people who get caught in the legal system don't), but later learned from her and her staff is, it is not all up to my own attorney or the court system to get things taken care of. The other side's attorney can drag their feet, misfile court documents, loose documents, postpone/reschedule court dates and make mysery for me as the client, and I can say honestly before learning this fact, I focused my frustration at my attorney when things were not moving along as fast as I want them to. Once I learned that it is NOT her fault and we together are subject to the other side's lack of professionalism, I got a grip. I've seen my case file, and it takes up over 1/2 of a filing cabinet drawer. Jamie's office has worked harder and swifter to finalize my divorce than the previous attorney had any intention of doing. Julie, her paralegal is a fantastic negotiator, document writer, with a no-nonsense approach to managing my case, not to mention she knows family law extremely well. Jamie and her staff have given me space to breathe again. They treated me with respect and kindness that I will never forget or take for granted. For the people who complain, my advice is: open your eyes to the bigger picture, educate YOURSELF, and (for goodness sake) be honest with yourself: you got yourself into the mess you're in. I know I did in my case, as I have suffered being a poor judge of character in my love life. Patience is very much a virtue that anyone involved in legal matters must exercise to the near breaking point, regardless of which attorney represents them. I'm glad I have Jamie, Julie, Christie and the team at The Law Office of Jamie Harris, and I have no doubt that I will not entrust my life situations now and in the future, with any other law firm but hers.
