Richard Harris, founder of Richard Harris Law Firm, has been named a 2027 Best Lawyers in America® by Best Lawyers®, a recognition determined entirely through peer review. The 2027 edition recognizes 81,620 lawyers across 151 practice areas and 203 metropolitan and geographic areas, representing the top 5% of practicing attorneys in the market. This year's edition is the most selective in Best Lawyers' history, informed by 3.8 million evaluations from more than 32,000 voting lawyers.

For Harris, the distinction reflects acknowledgment from fellow attorneys for his work advocating on behalf of injured clients and his role in building Nevada's largest personal injury law firm.
