I had a career ending injury working as a Nurse. My attorney was Harris Elliot and my experience was Phenomenal. There were a lot of bumps across the 2+ years of surgeries and insurance company payments getting to me on a bi-weekly basis. Harris was Excellent on getting all of my issues along the way, along with a general concern for my personal health along the way. I could not have asked for a better experience with anybody else during one of the most devastating points in my life. I would consider Harris as not only my attorney but a Great friend through it all. I now have reached out to Amy for a unrelated matter, she has also been Amazing to say the least!!! I am looking forward to now have her have my back this time around. I would and have recommended this law firm to friends in need, and will continue to in all future needs. I can't thank you enough!!!Phillip Spallina
