Hire her If you want to pay For Nothing

If you want to pay few thousand dollars for NOTHING, hire Jammie Harris! I don't know how she got my name and address and send me flyer after I got public prosecution. I regret to hire her just talking to her once. I hope I could read yelp review earlier, the previous 2 reviewer gave her really lo...w rating. I am an immigrant, my English is limited. But I wrote this review in order to help other people in the future who doing research on yelp to select their attorney. After I signed contract and paid money in full, Jammie wouldn't give me her phone number, the only person I could reach is administrator who only pick up incoming calls and couldn't give me any legal advice. The only way I could reach her is through email, she always reply late or just write down very short reply without explain much on my concern. She always late for few hours (not minutes) on my pretrial and some time she didn't even show up after I spent few hours in the court to wait for her. She sent 3 times other attorneys to the court to request judge putting my case in continuation. My simple case dragged for over 8 months. I got a chance to chat with the court clerk, she feel sympathetic on my situation, she told me that not only my case, other cases who represented by Jammie Harris are all like mine, she always left her client in the court room for long waiting. Overall, she is not a responsible attorney, didn't do much for my case, and eventually totally lost my case. She doesn't care what the outcome is for my case, because if my case didn't get dismissed, she would let me pay more money to go to jury trial. I really tired of her service,

I am so happy Jamie was recommended to me.

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.
