Jeffrey R. Harris

Founding Partner | Trial Lawyer

Jeffrey R. Harris is a Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers and one of the nation's leading trial attorneys, recognized for trying complex, high-stakes civil cases to verdict.

For more than two decades, he has represented individuals and families in catastrophic injury, wrongful death, product liability, medical negligence, and commercial litigation, securing hundreds of millions of dollars in verdicts and settlements. He is frequently retained by other attorneys to serve as lead trial counsel in their most significant jury trials.

Jeff believes that every trial is ultimately about responsibility. Long before jurors calculate damages or weigh legal standards, they decide who should be believed, and who deserves to bear the consequences of what happened. He has spent years studying the science of jury decision-making and applying insights from behavioral science and cognitive psychology to the courtroom. His trial strategies focus on how jurors evaluate credibility, assign blame, and reach consensus, allowing him to present complex cases in ways that resonate in the jury room.

That philosophy has shaped a career marked by landmark verdicts in product liability, medical malpractice, movie and set safety, wrongful death, and commercial litigation. Jeff's work has helped expose dangerous products, improve public safety, and hold corporations accountable for decisions that placed profits ahead of people. His cases have been featured by The New York Times, The Washington Post, USA Today, CBS Evening News, and numerous other national media outlets.
