Jalen Harris

Associate / New Orleans

P: 504.447.6629

Jalen Harris works in SBSB’s New Orleans office as part of the firm’s Defense Base Act practice. Before joining the firm, he worked in the Litigation Division of the Assistant City Attorney’s office. There, he had the opportunity to work on cases in a wide range of matters, including labor and employment, personal injury, and general liability.

With a strong work ethic and attention to detail, Jalen is constantly striving to learn new things. As an attorney, he asks himself a single question: What will best serve the client? He understands that litigation can be stressful. He keeps those he represents informed and the lines of communication open so they can rest a little easier knowing someone is fighting for them.

Jalen played football in college and credits that time for instilling in him a strong sense of teamsmanship. Those he works with know they can always count on him to lend a helping hand. Even when the solution to a problem isn’t immediately obvious, Jalen is always ready to go out and do the work until the job is done.
