I would definitely go elsewhere. Spent over $70,000 to complete a simple divorce that did not involve children or complex estate related issues. Ultimately ended up finalizing legal matters at a second law firm in excess of another $20,000. Billing rates were excessive compared to firms of equal quality and more competencies. My ex wife's attorney was half the cost and twice as good. My primary dissatisfaction was based on simple administrative mistakes and sloppy paperwork that resulted in additional losses to me of over $40,000 and dragged out the divorce proceedings by 6 months. A better option would be to open the yellow pages to choose a law firm.

I was referred to the Harris Law Firm from a colleague who had been in a similar situation that I was experiencing. I knew it was important to find a lawyer this time who would be thorough and detailed. That is the best way to describe Taylor Fish. I had no idea what to expect throughout the process of modifying my parenting plan, but Taylor was amazing at keeping calm and preparing me for each step. There were times when I would be discouraged by the process and what was happening, but my attorney would remain level headed and tell me to take a few days and we would get going again. Taylor is an expert at allowing you to make your own decisions, but she always gives solid advice and direction. I trusted her to know exactly what to do and I knew that she was on top of every aspect of my case. She really got to know me and continually focused on my daughter, who was the most important thing throughout our litigation. I was extremely impressed with her ability to word my thoughts in an exceptionally articulate manner and to make sure that every deadline was met and paperwork was filed. When my attorney was busy with another case, she would always let me know that she hadn’t forgotten me but she had to devote her time to the deadline the other case had. I appreciated that because I knew that if something was pressing with my case, she would put in the time and effort needed for me as well. And she proved me right. We were able to settle our case out of court and to obtain a parenting plan that I believe is truly in the best interests of my child. The paralegal working on my case was amazing and she really made me feel like she valued my time. I could tell that she was a wealth of knowledge and a valuable asset to the team. The financial department was thorough and respectful. I was always aware of where my money was going and what was happening financially. During the most stressful situation I’ve ever experienced I was so grateful to have this Firm behind me, ready to help in any way possible. I would highly recommend the Harris Law Firm to anyone I know!

The Harris Law Firm is probably one of the worst in the state of Colorado practicing family law. I’ll frame my review in terms of their values page on their website, and demonstrate how much of a joke it is. Kathryn Nelson is not a knowledgeable lawyer, but instead is incompetent. She frequently had to ask the court about rules and procedures and does not even know the definition of hearsay! They certainly don’t care about children, and their only focus is on making sure that their clients get what they want, and strictly enforcing the letter of law, not even taking into account the spirit of the remarks that *the judge* made as part of his or her ruling. They do a terrible job of communicating, failing to return phone calls and e-mails to the opposing party, thereby eliminating any possibility of out-of-court negotiations. They often act unilaterally. They will only settle things in court, and will often file motions only hours or minutes, without doing proper consultation of the other party, skirting the lines of ethics. They also have no problem running up needless costs, but they’ll assure you that they’ll get the other party to pay. Of course, this doesn’t happen, and so you’re stuck with a huge bill. If you have lots of money to burn and think you can win a war of attrition, The Harris Law Firm are your people. Otherwise, I’d look elsewhere. I didn’t hire these idiots, but my ex-wife did. My divorce drug out a long time, but eventually their incompetence caught up to them, and I got exactly what I wanted.

Definitely wouldn’t recommend The Harris law firm. I contacted this firm to seek help in a custody battle. After giving them evidence that my child was in grave danger and showed them text messages from my ex-wife telling me that her current husband had threaten to kill my 3 year old son if she was to leave him along with hard pieces of evidence, the lawyers did nothing. I only got a huge bill for a job they didn’t do correct and they still expect their money like if I was 100% satisfied. I hired them because I needed someone aggressive that would take this case serious and I saw that there website said they had aggressive lawyers with experience. But once we went to court I saw no aggressiveness and only gave me a run around and putting excuses of what happened. Thanks to that i had to drop my case because they charged me over $10,000 in less than 3 months. I started with $2,500 down and within 2 weeks they wanted another $2,500 ant the charges kept increasing. I told them from the beginning what I wanted from this case and they were okay with it. Once I paid them they told me that what I wanted wasn’t going to be possible because that judge would approve even though I had text messages where it showed my 3 year old son’s life was in danger. Now my evidence is “not valid” because of the amount of time that has passed. AlI got from this experience was a huge bill and no help in winning custody of my son. Definitely not friendly and I wouldn’t recommend this not even to my worst enemy.

HATE THIS PLACE! Hired Kelly. What a joke. I talked to her directly MAYBE 3 times on the phone literally not once after I paid the retainer in person. We never had a single hearing or anything. I delt only with her assistant or whoever I never had a clue what was going on all I knew was it seemed weekly it was going up A LOT. And now I owe 10k (HOW?!). My new lawyer was amazing and once I told her about the awful job Kelly did even she said there was no reason at all I should owe that amount with no in person contact, no court hearings, and almost no phone conversations either!!! this place is a joke, the lawyers even worse. I am beyond grateful for the new lawyer for my divorce NOT from here. It's been almost a year and I still am Furious.

Unprofessional, unsympathetic, unknowledgeable, uncouth. That is all you need to know about Harris Law Firm.

Harris Law Firm is awesome. Ms.. Arkin Admin and her staff are the best of the best.

I made an appointment just to see what my rights were and what I could expect in my case. The second I stepped into the office, and spoke to the receptionist, I felt comfortable and the staff was eager to help. The program that this firm offered was an in house legal advise that did not require a retainer and it made me feel like they understood that my finances mattered and they found a way to help. I was very happy after my meeting and things were explained to where I could understand them. I felt empowered! And help was just a call away.

We hired this law firm to help with child support and visitation issues. We picked them because they were in the Denver/ Ft Collins area and we were in the Springs. They appointed a newer attorney to our case who was up against a seasoned attorney with an attitude. Our attorney was not a fighter and kept telling us to settle when we wanted to fight. the out come was less then what we started with. This was one issue we had with them. The other is their billing department. There were monies never posted to our account, double charges. We would get a generic statement the first three months after we hired them asking for another 2500.00 after being in the red and we had to ask for itemized statements every time to catch the errors that were being made. These statements were never sent pro-active so we were always in the red. The assistant would loose mails and we would have to resend everything. We were charged travel time from Denver when they should have sent an attorney from their Ft Collins's office that was the reason to hire them. We paid this firm well over 10K in less then a year and they still want more for nothing. When they stated they were done with the case and withdrew we found out the proper paper work was never completed and followed up on by our attorney because she relied on the other parties attorney to do it and it created contempt charges. We took our issues to the owner and to office manger she blew it off and stated we owed the reminder of the monies knowing they never finished the job offering a small discount on the reminder knowing we had to hire another attorney to finish what they didn't then turned the balance of 5K to collections. We never heard from the owner/Sr partner. We have filed a complaint with the BBB and now ready to go to the Bar. That is how bad this company is. I do not recommend them at all and should have checked yelp before hiring them with the past reviews.

Kevin Massaro and Linda Campbell are exactly what I needed to get through my divorce. What a fantastic team! Kevin is patient, compassionate, intelligent, and fights for you like you are family. Linda is diligent, focused, caring, and extremely organized. If I had to go through it again, I would make sure that I had this "Dynamic" team representing me. Wonderful Job!! Thanks for all your support!

I have been with the Harris Law Firm for five years. Kathryn Nelson and Jennifer Irwin have worked tirelessly on my case every time there has been an issue. I have NEVER been dissatisfied with my interactions, service, or their commitment! I value them both for their hard work, effort, and sincerity. They truly care for all of their clients and it shows.

I was very pleased with the excellent work of all of the attorneys that represented me, especially Jennie Wray, my lead attorney. Their diligent and skillful work resulted in the best outcome of my case that was practically possible. The attorneys and the excellent paralegal Roselyn Klinzman who worked on my case adhere to the highest ethical and professional standards. Their work has made a significant positive difference in my life and that of my young son.
