	3/4/23	A co-worker of mine told me that there was a negative posting about Mr Hanson on this site. I don't see it but it may be under review. Mr Hanson is a recipient of the Alberta Civil Trial Lawyers Association Award of Distinction. He has many interesting and landmark successes in Alberta Courts and the Federal Court of Appeal. He often gives him time pro bono to help people. Anyone who knows him knows that he is a family man who is a loyal, fair and honest person to have as your lawyer or your friend. He is approaching retirement and has more work than he needs. It is a shame that cowards can use a site like this to try to smear someone like him. Because the postings are anonymous, they never have to answer for themselves.
	2/28/23	I have work with Mr Hanson for many years. He has as much work as he can handle from happy clients or referrals from them. He does not need to advertise and has not advertised for many years. He studies the law, thinks carefully about how to solve problems on each file and finds ways to get the necessary evidence for the claims to succeed. We often receive grateful thank you notes from clients after their settlements. He is sometimes too busy to personally return calls but most clients are reassured and happy with having us relay messages from him in those situations.
	3/2/22	Be careful with this lawyer. He will agree to take on a personal injury file on a contingency fee agreement/basis but then does not provide the client with the agreement and proceeds to bill $600 an hour and legal assistant fees, when legal assistant fees are not normally billed to client. He does not send documents or keep clients apprised on what transpires and then takes instructions from a adult, when there are mental capacity issues and then proceeds to bill the adult's parent. No wonder he is a multi millionaire. He accumulates wealth at the expense of his client. Very self serving like others have posted. His work quality has been given a poor rating given that he has not provided the client with any documents he prepared. Dealing with him has been a cost, rather than getting any value.
	10/7/15	Harris did a terrible job representing me. He was self serving. I cant understand why all of the negative reviews about this lawyer are getting removed. They should be allowed to stay and be read by all. My recommendation is not to use his services. He is unprofessional.

	9/6/13	Best, most efficient and wise litigator I have met
	8/27/13	Mr. Hanson clearly has tremendous experience and street smarts in knowing what to expect and how to handle fatality and personal injury claims.He alsois a very good drafter of wills and contracts and quite knowledgable in estate planning and mediation of disputes.
	8/18/13	Mr. Hanson has been a personal injury and fatality case litigator for more than 30 years. He has been successful Plaintiff's counsel in dozens of court decisions, including landmark decisions in Court of Appeal. He has authored many seminar materials for personal injury lawyers and has dozens of published articles. He is a very efficient and excellent writer and communicator. Other experienced personal injury lawyers look up to him. The problem with websites like this is that they allow anonymous postings with no verification of facts. What a perfect place for a sleazy competitor or problem client who won't listen to good legal advice to try to damage someone's reputation. On this website good lawyers can appear to be bad and lawyers with little skill and experience can appear to be the best. It is no wonder that intelligent people do not consult or rely on this website to find a lawyer. Obviously, you are more likely to get truth from someone who is not afraid to be identified.
