Kyle Ortiz and his staff was great to work with. He is a great listener and performed very professionally in court. His attention to detail and easy-going attitude with me as his client allowed us to win our case with the least amount of added stress in the court room. I would highly recommend him to represent you.

I was dealing with a contract dispute with a contractor at the start of 2021. After interviewing a handful of attorneys, I settled on Harris Law because of my initial consultation with Maureen Connaughton. She gave me the impression that she cared about my situation. I began working with Maureen in May of 2021, when I had made it clear that my full intent was to sue the contractor for my financial losses if we could not get a settlement. When we started, she advised me to pursue the contractor’s insurance company for compensation first. This tactic did not make sense to me, but I trusted her judgement and agreed to try that prior to initiating litigation. Meanwhile, we obtained a verbal agreement from the contractor that he was willing to settle and pay the amount per the demand letter via a flexible payment plan. Again, Maureen did not pursue this, and instead focused on the insurance company. I trusted her guidance. After months of Maureen communicating with the insurance company, I received an update from her on October 1, 2021 that no progress was being made with the insurance company and that she could no longer work with me because she does not have time for litigation. At the same time, she recommended another attorney outside of Harris Law. She literally quit after wasting 6 months of time. I had been billed nearly $2K for Maureen’s services, which consisted mainly of email and phone communications with the insurance company, billed at $250/hr. During my time working with Maureen, it was nearly impossible to reach her because the only contact phone number that I had was the main office. On one occasion it took me a week to get a hold of her; after I did, there was absolutely no acknowledgement on her part that it was unacceptable for her to take that long to respond. Communicating with Maureen was so challenging that I started feeling that maybe I was in the wrong in all of this. Cut to the beginning of 2022, when I hired another attorney. He was easy to work with and he helped me obtain the original demand amount. It took another 9 months (thus why I am finally writing this review), but it is finally over. There is some irony in dealing with Maureen. In our very first conversation, she was empathetic to what happened to me with the contractor. Interestingly, I feel like she did the exact same thing – promised one thing, did not deliver, and walked away with a decent chunk of money. Final note – the reason why I am giving Harris Law two stars instead of one is because Dan Harris took over after Maureen quit and I complained. He attempted to obtain a quick resolution by reaching out to the insurance company again without charging me. We did not get anywhere, but some effort was there.

Awful law firm, awful representation! What was made out to be a straight forward case ended up losing more by having this law firm represent us than had we done it ourselves. And cost thousands of dollars for bad representation. If I could give 0 stars I would

From the first conversation, Jon Steffy inspired a sense of confidence. I relied on his calm and reasonable demeanor, his experience in the judicial system, and his team's excellent communication to navigate my first (and hopefully only) experience in the court system.

When I needed legal services, Harris Law was the only firm anyone I asked mentioned and Jon Steffy was recommended by name each and every time. Jon was great to work with and could not have handled my case any better. His understanding of the law and relationships helped provide me with the best outcome. I could not imagining ever using anyone else in the future.

My Harris Law Attorney, John Steffy deserves a 5 Star recommendation. I was impressed by both his professionalism and common sense advice. John was consistent and clear in his communication nd in pursuing an outcome that was in my best interest even though it required a significant investment of time and energy on his part. I believe that John Steffy has a very bright future and anyone engaging his legal services will be treated fairly and receive his best effort.

Terribly incompetent lawyer. Unable to review evidence. No due process of law. How can a law firm have such despicable actions.

Working with Jon Steffy was an absolute pleasure!! He's very nice and reassuring. I'm very happy that I chose to work with him ang the office!

Jon Steffy got results. He was excellent at keeping me up to date on my case, and his strategy ultimately resolved my case with the best possible outcome. Thank you!!!

I hired Mr. Travis Groat for a change in custody to fight for the safety of my children. Despite how busy Travis is, he took the time to prepare and know my case like he was speaking straight from me. His knowledge on my case and the facts he stated to show the truth was more than I could have hoped for. He cared about the safety of my girls and for the first time in a long time I was able to breathe and know someone took the time to listen to me and not only be my voice but be the voice of my children who aren’t old enough to speak for themselves. I don’t think the outcome of my hearing could have went any better and I’m truly thankful for him and his staff for their hard work. I would recommend Travis a million times over.

My wife hired Travis for a custody hearing, and I don’t think he could have been better prepared. He definitely did his homework. Very professional, very put together and we couldn’t be happier on our experience with Mr. Groat.

Not a good lawyer.
