I always enjoy reading your articles. Catherine van Kampen, Esq. Bernstein Litowitz Berger & Grossmann LLP
I really enjoyed your article titled "The Top Reasons Why Money Is the Dumbest Thing Any Attorney Should Focus on When Joining a Law Firm." It was relatable, inspiring and definitely worth breaking through the short attention span that plagues us today (especially when it comes to articles online). Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Dani
Enjoy your written product very much -- fascinating articles. Reed Rubinstein
I stumbled across a couple of your blog posts about business development. I found them to be extremely helpful, insightful, and a bit terrifying (in the way they should be). As someone working to build a practice, I truly appreciate you taking the time to write on the subject. Thanks and best regards, Ryan Clinton
Thanks, Harrison. I truly enjoy reading your work. You are a thought leader and I love your confidence and swagger. Paul G.
Harrison Barnes you're a genius. Who writes your articles? They're so right on! I've been reading your work of art for so long I can't remember when I started. Practicing for over 25 years your words are gospel to lawyers. Thank you and keep it up. Michele M. Volpe Bershtein, Volpe & McKeon P.C.
I always enjoy your legal articles, Harrison. One of your previous articles really resonated and inspired me. Even though we've never worked together, I always try and read your articles. Buck Dougherty
I just have to say that I am impressed with how prolific you are with the articles that you write for your website. You write so many articles! And each one has so much substance to it and is really in depth and provides great advice. And I am not saying this to get a testimonial on the website. I just had to write because I was so impressed.
I find the legal market extremely vexing and you put that into words extremely well. Thanks. Jeff Cohen

Best, Charline Gipson Partner, Davillier Law Group New Orleans, LA

Very enjoyable reading. Commitment matters. Bill Farrar
