Compassionate Fighter for Equal Rights
"A lawyer referred me to James Harbic when I told him I needed the best Criminal Defence Counsel in Canada. I had just returned from almost forty years living and practising medicine in Texas. Mr. Harbic's representation on my behalf was excellent from the beginning when I was charged with failure to provide the necessities of life to the moment that Justice McPhee acquitted me in the Ontario Court of Justice. James Harbic saved my professional career as a licensed physician as well as my freedom. James Harbic is an extremely capable trial lawyer and a compassionate fighter for equal rights for everyone".
