Attorney Richard D. Harrison provided outstanding guidance on numerous legal issues affecting my elderly father. Attorney Harrison was extremely knowledgeable and compassionate in addressing estate planning, trust creation, bypassing probate, health care coverage, and other elder law concerns. He was thorough, responsive and proactive, while providing excellent follow-up. In addition, he was a great communicator and very well organized. My father and I were extremely grateful and appreciative for his services. If you need an exceptional lawyer who truly cares about his clients, look no further than Attorney Richard D. Harrison!

we hired him to handle my mother's will. in nearly 2 years he never answered our calls wrote or kept us up on what was happening. we contacted the board of overseers, who investigated. he claimed he did call us (he Never did) and sent letters (we never got) finally i called one last time,, said he'd call back but never did, instead returned all our money . he was already on the radar with the board of overseers. two years wasted. never do business with this guy.

Stay away from this guy. He charged my 90 year old mother-in-law's credit card for $1,250 in advance of doing some work for her. When I heard how much he was going to charge I immediately called him and told him not to do anything. I followed up a week later and told him we were going to use somebody else. He indicated at that time he would refund the money but didn't. I have called multiple times over the past 2 months to get my mother-in-law's money returned but he hasn't returned my calls or refunded the money. Its bad enough to grossly overcharge for work we ended up having done for $150 but to not return a poor 90 year old women's money is disgraceful. Guys like this shouldn't be allowed to practice law.
