DO NOT HIRE

Everything was great in the beginning. My court date was rescheduled and for whatever reason Jacob decided not to actually follow through. I paid to have representation and I received no such thing. Wish I could give a better review but this is what happened in my experience with Jacob.

Beyond Satisfied!

I met with Mr. Harris after several "highly recommended" but awful attorneys for my child custody case. Jacob was prepared with my complete case history and all relevant documents at our first meeting. He was knowledgeable, compassionate and extremely diligent. I immediately felt relief and comple...te confidence that he was going to do everything in his ability to help my case. He made himself available to me at all times, professionally and emotionally. He was so calming and supportive the day of court. His professionalism and respectful demeanor with the judge and opposing attorney were crucial in the judges decision in my case. I believe the outcome would not have been the same without Jacob by my side. Mr. Harris was more than I ever expected and I will never use another attorney!

I contacted Mr. Harris in October of 1015. I was very impressed with Jacob right away. His overall personality and politeness is off the chart. He was very understanding, compassionate, and most of all, knowledgeable about domestic law. I'm going through a divorce after 24 yrs. and i was forced t...o obtain a restraining order against my husband. Jacob took care of everything for me and was always completely prepared at all times. I have worked with some of the finest attorneys and judges in Las Vegas, Nevada and Southern Oregon. I can tell you, Jacob is above all of them, he goes beyond the call of duty for you. There was not one time, that I called him, that he didn't return my call in a timely fashion. Most attorneys will leave you hanging, sometimes for days, but not Jacob. This has been one of the most emotional situations in my life , next to my deployment to Iraq. Jacob new exactly how to help me through this very emotional court hearing, he kept me focused, so I wouldn't completely shut down due to nerves. I would be proud to refer anyone with a domestic lawsuit to Jacob Harris. He has treated me like part of his family and gave me words of courage, when I felt weak from the stress. I would like to publicly thank Jacob for everything he has done for me in this case. He is a great attorney and I know when you retain him will have great results.

Saved our family!

It's not often you can find a lawyer who is really there for you or will invest themselves in the matter that Jacob Harris did for my wife and I this last year. Several months ago my families lives got overturned and a custody battle shortly followed. We reached out to Mr Harris for help, little did ...we know how incredibly wonderful and pleasant the journey would be with Jacob Harris in our corner. Mr Harris was able to make short work of the dilemma and get us full custody of my wife's daughter. Mr Harris was incredibly professional, courteous and available to take our calls day and night, no matter the urgency of the call. We let Jacob know that no matter the issue, if ever legal representation is ever needed in our household again, Jacob will be the one we trust in. Thank you ever so much!
