Harris Leiner is the lawyer you want and need to hire! I have had the great opportunity to be represented by him through a long, drawn out divorce/support battle since approximately 2004. He came highly recommended after I fired my first lawyer and he has provided impeccable service. Not only has he provided impeccable service, he won and held the court decisions at bay with 100% success. Mr. Leiner represented me even while I lived in another state! Not only does he care about the representation of his clients, their success, he also cares about them as a person. You want a lawyer that gives you the facts, works hard, stays ahead of the opposition, saves you time, does not waste your time financially, and does a fantastic job in court. This is Harris Leiner! Mr. Leiner is extremely knowledgeable, professional, trustworthy, and very, very reliable. He knows how to fight for his clients and he knows the law. If I still resided in the State of Virginia, Richmond area, I would recommended everyone that needed a lawyer to him. In cases where individuals talk negative about their lawyer or lawyer experiences, I have the great experience of bragging on my lawyer and the success we had in court. I would not have succeeded so well, if I had not hired him. I have had the great privilege of being represented by him and I feel honored to know him. If people in our world would hold such high, excellent standards as he does in working for people and conducting his work for his clients, our world would be a greater place. I learned the hard way, hire the best right from the start! Do not start with a lawyer to save on money, the saying "you get what you pay for" - in my case it was true. I am so very thankful to have had his representation! You want to hire this lawyer!!!

Harris is a very effective and efficient attorney. He educated me regarding the options throughout the process, and was patient while I took time to make important decisions.

Harris was very upfront with us upon our initial meeting. He made us feel comfortable and let us know that he felt comfortable that we would get the outcome desired even though there were no guarantees. He was generally assessable and responsive and followed up if we were not providing information quickly enough. Demonstrated strong knowledge throughout entire process and particularly at the hearing.

Harris took over my case from another attorney and reset negotiations. My case was very emotional, personal and dramatic and involved many family members and friends. Harris kept the drama and emotion out of the proceedings and works in a very fact based manner. Harris also coached me, calmed me down, set realistic expectations and managed the counter parties very well. I ended up with a fair deal for all parties with as little collaterral damage as possible. Harris maintains realtionships with other attorneys and is able to negotiate fairly. Harris kept the case moving along and we were able to settle through mediation. I trust Harris.

I found Harris by simply searching the web and taking a chance on what was one of the biggest challenges I have faced in a very long time ' getting Divorced' but from the first time I walked into his office, sat down and started a conversation with him I knew that I would come out of it all in a better place than when I went in. Throughout the entire process he has been nothing but professional, courteous, informative and extremely knowledgeable in reference to my divorce proceedings. I am extremely pleased with the outcome and the efficiency in which my situation was handled and would highly recommend Harris to everyone I know should they ever find themselves in need of his services.

Harris was extremely professional and helpful during a difficult time. Additionally Harris was very efficient with his billing hours helping me keep my costs to minimum.

Mr. Leiner was my attorney during a divorce and custody suit. Unfortunately those circumstances can be very stressful and confusing. Mr. Leiner was responsive to me and my family members whenever a question arose and was professionally confident in his family-law knowledge. He was able to clearly guide us through the process - all the time providing very realistic expectations. Though I would never want to re-live that specific time in my life - I will be ever grateful that we were able to find such a caring and experienced attorney to represent us.

Harris was extremely professional, available, attentive to my requests, and offered excellent counsel regarding navigation of the drafting of the separation agreement to ultimate divorce decree. His confidence and knowledge of family law put me at ease regarding the process. I trusted him that the advice he provided was the best advice from a practical and legal standpoint. I would, and have, recommended Harris to others for their family law advice.

Mr. Leiner represented me in a divorce and I recommend him enthusiastically and without reservation. I was impressed with the amount of time he spent with me and with the clarity with which he explained the law and all of the possible options I had in the process. When you cannot trust your spouse, having an attorney with high intelligence and integrity provides a source of strength that allows the client to think clearly and to make wise decisions. My divorce closed peacefully and the settlement was deemed fair by both me and my spouse. I am most grateful for his counsel.

Mr. Leiner was my divorce attorney. I would not recommend him. He did not litigate well against my ex-husband's attorney. He accepted a much lower settlement on my behalf than he originally proposed. I asked the firm mid way to switch attorneys since we had separate wants. They were not responsive to that idea. I would not recommend Mr. Leiner nor his firm for family law. He was not a strong advocate for my case and made me feel not worth his time. Also, they did not inform me of my divorce date. I learned officially of my divorce via mail, 2 weeks later.
