Law Office of Jamie N. Harris

I would recommend Jamie Harris to anyone. I was a friend of a person charged with a crime. I went to all of his consultations, court dates, and meetings. We met about 6 attorneys and due to Jamie's assertive personality and how respectful she treated us, we went with her. Jamie and her staff are amazing. I never have any difficulty reaching anyone. If I leave a message I get a call right back. Anytime we have asked to come in to review the file the door has been open, no questions asked. I know Jamie is always in Court but you are never made to feel unimportant. She focuses on you when you are meeting with her and in court. I saw a person come up to her and ask her for her card in court and she apologized and told them they would have to wait because she was there for US and needed to help us first. I was surprised. And yes they waited. Thank you to the Law Office of Jamie N. Harris. more

Jamie Harris helped me thru a difficult situation. I was in trouble again and wanted help. I had a history that I knew would automatically convict me and needed an attorney who could see past my history and help me with my current situation. I hired The Law Office of Jamie N Harris to represent me. I was facing serious time and the loss of my kids. Jamie was always profession in court and if she was running late she was good at calling me herself and emailing me. I could also see that the DA she had to work with on my case actually listened to her. When some attorneys would walk up to the DA he would roll his eyes and cut them short. But with Jamie I saw that he listened and they looked like they were having a real discussion. Well about a year later after I hired Jamie Harris I settled my case and am happy with the result . No jail no prison and no reporting to a probation officer. I recommend The Law Office of Jamie N. Harris to anyone in need. She helped financially in taking payments and never made me feel like a criminal. \r more

\r I was in trouble over someone else's ""issues"" and found myself in jail facing prison. I was a parolee and knew the consequences of getting a new case and after living years of a crime free life, due to something beyond my control, I was arrested again. I retained an attorney who was rude and made be feel like scum. The Law Office of Jamie N. Harris was recommended to me so I fired my attorney and hired Jamie Harris. Within months of hiring Jamie Harris my charges were dropped! She used a private investigator to trace down the prior owner of the car I was in, interview some witnesses, and Jamie promptly took everything she found to the DA on my case. I remember crying when Jamie came to the jail to visit me and tell me the great news. I will forever be in debt to her due to her believing in me and not giving up on me as my prior attorneys did. more

Ok so people always talk about lawyers being liars and greedy but my experience with Jamie Harris was different. She would always ask how I was during my court case and was always honest, even when she knew I would not like what she was saying. At first I was a bit concerned because I met Julie, her paralegal at first. Jamie was stuck in court. However, after I spoke with Jamie Harris herself on the phone aI felt a sense of calm and knew I was in good hands. Jamie was always direct and friendly and Yanet and Julie always made me feel at home in the office. Their was a time I asked to come in and sit down with my file and go thru it and she made it happen, without any hesitation. I also received copies of my paperwork whenever requested and never felt lost. Jamie handled a sensitive matter for me and she was very accommodating. Hire the Law Office of Jamie N Harris. You will be glad you did. \r more

I hired Jamie Harris a few years back for a family law matter in Los Angeles. She was recommended and I was nervous because she was out of the area. Jamie made everything easy for me. She emailed me questions and forms to fill out and charged me 1/2 of what others quoted me. When it came to going to court she hired another attorney Sandy Rabadi to appear for me (which worried me) but after meeting Sandy I knew I was in great hands. Jamie explained everything to me step by step. The days when we had court Jamie would call me bright and early to check in on me and later that evening as well. She also kept detailed notes and reminded me of goals I told her of in our first phone meeting. Although I have never had the pleasure of physically meeting Jamie Harris I have no regrets at all. She worked with Sandy and the two of them treated me extremely well. I achieved just about all of the goals I initially told Jamie I wanted to achieve and now that everything is over, I can relax and enjoy my kids again. Thank you to The Law Office of Jamie Harris and to Sandy as well. more

I have used Jamie Harris for my husbands case he was being wrongly accused of a robbery that happened at a restaurant we ate at. The District attorney had nothing but some finger prints on the door and a witness who wrongly picked him out, who also all during prelim said he did not look like the suspect. Even after the dna on the mask came back as 99.9% not my husbands the D.A. STILL wanted to pursued him as a suspect! the Law Office of Jamie N Harris helped us out so my husband didn't miss too much. The district attorney managed to make him miss the birth of his first child she was a ""witch"" who would not budge for one second. she even threw some dirty looks my way in the courtroom while I was 9 months pregnant like I was no body and she was better than me she was stuck up and definitely not on my side at all. \r But that's besides the point. I am grateful for the work Jamie did I know she worked her butt off on this case. She got the case dismissed! I loved every second of the district attorney sending other D.A's to take her place when things didn't go her way. I just wish I could have seen her face the day the case got dismissed! Overall Jamie Harris did a wonderful job and she is down to earth & will tell you like it is. She takes payments too! I paid a fee upfront but she let me pay the other half in payments which worked better for me since I had a baby on the way. more

Jamie Harris was an extremely helpful attorney. She always returned my calls timely and did not have me speaking with a secretary in order to discuss my case. She kept me informed of the progress on my case and I always felt that she was open and honest with me. I have worked with attorneys before who (1) never answered my calls and (2) never seemed to be an advocate for me. Jamie Harris is extremely personable and caring. I loved how she gave me a folder to keep my documents in and helped me keep my personal documents for my matter in order. Its the little things that counts and she made sure to do them all. If you want a job done right and feel like you are paying your attorney and not a secretary, I would highly recommend Jamie.\r more

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 Harris 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. \r 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.\r 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. \r 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 N 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.\r more

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 retained Ms. Harris' law office to represent him in 2012. 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. She visited my friend in custody and as he heard inmates complain about their attorney never visiting them during the pendency of their case, he would just sit and smile because she visited him and was there during his court appearances. I do remember she was late one time but she personally called me in the morning to tell me so that I could be aware. However, by the time they were ready to call my friends' matter she was there and ready to go. Thank you Jamie N. Harris for all of your hard work. \r more

I first learned about The Law Office of Jamie N Harris through a friend of mine who used Jamie Harris for a criminal case. I came to them for help with a nasty high conflict custody battle. Jamie Harris' staff has been amazing through the process and really has taken the time to get to know me and my daughter. She likes to connect to her clients. While this dragged out custody hearing has been a complete nightmare, both of them have been by my side offering advice and help when issues have come up. When I received my bill I was surprised that I was not charged for things I know I could have been charged for. Also, when I would call or pop in to review a document, I never felt as if I was intruding on Jamie's office. I was always greeted warmly and never criticized. I can't say enough great things about this duo. They have gone above and beyond to help me and my daughter. Hopefully I don't have to keep them for the next 13 years...LOL. Thank you everything!!! more

I highly recommend this lawyer. She helped my husband with his criminal case and we were greatly satisfied with the results. We went through a few road bumps but Ms. Harris got us through. She and her staff are very professional and I would use her services again although I hope I won't have to. Wonderful lawyer. more
