Harris & Hayden Law Firm is a champion of civil rights and equality for all people. We have represented clients in courts, arbitration, and administrative forums throughout California and the United States, winning some of the country’s most high-profile civil rights and excessive force cases. We serve as the voice of the unheard, representing people who have been tortured, brutalized, and murdered.

Since 1980, Harris & Hayden Law Firm (formerly Harris & Associates) has built a sterling reputation for serving clients in California and across the nation. For four decades, we have represented clients in some of the nation’s most complex and high-profile civil rights and excessive force cases involving anti-discrimination litigation –– and we have won major settlements time again and time again. Our record of success in the courtroom and superior client services has earned us the moniker of “the firm that gets results.”

At H&H, we are proud of our reputation of “championing civil rights and equality.” H&H attorneys John W. Harris and Herbert Hayden represent clients in a range of matters including civil rights, discrimination and excess force, corporate and employment law, and personal injury cases.

This mission has driven our success for 40 years and will for the next 40 and beyond.
