Who We Are
Like many other children growing up in Jamaica, I either wanted to be a doctor or a lawyer. I had no real passion for either. I wanted prestige, wealth, and respect, or the simple gratification of knowing that my parents are proud. I decided on law, only because my grades in chemistry would not allow me to matriculate into medicine.
After completing law school, I worked at a small law office in rural Jamaica and then a medium-sized firm in the corporate area. That is when I fell in love with the practice of law and the joy of helping others. I was not pleased with the financial rewards, but I was happy with the way I impacted others, the relief I brought to someone finally divorced, the joy I brought to a farmer armed with a certificate of title, or the bliss an injured party gets after receiving fair and proper compensation for his pain and suffering, or loss of income.

Testimonials
“Good things come in small packages” that definitely describes the best lawyer I know and could have possibly interacted with, Tamika Harris-the spearhead of Tamika Harris and Associates. This firm is a fierce and result-oriented team consisting of exemplary women with astounding personalities and massive hearts of gold! I remember being pregnant a couple of years ago and my spouse was charged for an offense. I found myself in a state of great depression-being in such a delicate and vulnerable phase of my life. I have never had to deal with court proceedings before and as such, was mostly oblivious to how things worked and the requisite course of action to be taken, but all that changed after being introduced to Tamika Harris. Initially, we spoke via phone and that in itself gave me a huge relief. We soon after set up a meeting for further discussion of my spouse’s case and let me tell you, I could not have asked for anything more! Upon my arrival at the office, I was greeted by Ms. Harris’ and her secretaries’ warm welcome, which made me feel as if we had known each other for eons. After sitting in with Ms. Harris privately and getting to the meat of the matter, I was finally afforded the reassurance and optimism I so desperately needed.I would always call the office especially post court hearing, for a rundown of what transpired and what would be happening next and I was always accommodated and not once was I made to feel like a nuisance. Information was duly relayed to me using terminologies I could understand and I was never shunned-irrespective of the time I called nor the number of times I called and for that, I was most appreciative. Ultimately and to no surprise, my spouse’s case was dismissed and he came out the victor, for which we thanked Ms. Harris profusely. Simply put, TAMIKA HARRIS and Associates is a “one in a million” organization as they are astute and always ready to work to achieve their client’s satisfaction. In retrospect, I bless the day I was recommended to her as she is the reason my family and I can now put that horrific phase of our lives behind us and move on a more positive and wholesome note. We thank you immensely, Miss. Harris, and wish you all the best in your current and future endeavors.
My husband and I employed the services of Ms. Tamika Harris (now Tamika Harris & Associates) in 2014 when we were buying our first house. Ms. Harris was very professional and efficient. She identified an overcharge for the annual strata insurance on the sales agreement and wrote to the attorney-at-law acting on behalf of the Vendor asking for documentation to validate the cost. To our surprise and delight, the charge was subsequently reduced by more than 50%. The process was smooth sailing after that. We had no hassle, her office dealt with everything. What we appreciated most about our experience, was the customer service, which included the explanation about the process and what would be expected of us.It should be no surprise to you that 5 years later when we were buying our second property, we returned to Ms. Harris’ law firm. We were very impressed and confident that we had a competent attorney who had extensive knowledge of the legal requirements to buy and sell houses.
As a result of the superb services of this Law Firm, we have recommended the firm services to several of our friends. They are just as impressed as we are.
I recommend this law firm without hesitation.
I recently engaged the services of Tamika Harris and Associates for my divorce.Even though other lawyers saw my case as complicated given that my spouse is incarcerated, there was no hesitation from this firm. They took on my case and within 6 months my divorce was finalized!
Ms. Harris took a hands-on approach and the staff whom I found to be extremely helpful and professional kept me up to date during the entire process. The best part is that the fees are highly competitive, and the payment methods are quite flexible.
I have absolutely no regrets in having chosen this law firm and would highly recommend it.

As a result of our interaction with Tamika Harris and Associates, we now clearly understand the difference between Tenants-in Common and Joint Tenants and the importance of obtaining a valuation and survey report. We would definitely recommend Tamika Harris and Associates, Attorneys-at-Law to anyone seeking legal assistance.
