Today on the podcast Jim and Tyson sat down with Nathan Harris. Nathan has been focused on helping people in the Hispanic community in Alabama for most of his life. His mother is from the tiny Spanish speaking country of Ecuador in South America and met his father while he was stationed in the peace corps in Ecuador in the 1970’s. After Mr. Harris’ parents were married in Ecuador, they moved to this country, the country of opportunity. Mr. Harris was born shortly thereafter and took advantage of this opportunity granted to him by going to law school at the University of Alabama. 

Mr. Harris opened the firm in 2010, which eventually became Abogados Centro Legal, by building trust, fighting hard, and taking advantage of opportunity.

Today, Abogados Centro Legal is still helping Hispanic folks solve their legal problems in the following areas: serious injuries, car wrecks, accidents, overtime and minimum wage disputes, and immigration. Our Hispanic clients rarely feel comfortable with the U.S. legal system at first; but our firm, being fully bilingual and bicultural, is able to better relate to the Hispanic community and set our clients at ease during these stressful situations. All people, including undocumented immigrants, have rights and access to justice. 

Everyone who has been injured, through no fault of their own, has the right to seek justice in the form of a jury trial in a court of law. We assist our clients in telling their stories and fighting for the justice they deserve. We also assist other attorneys to navigate the complex issues that arise in civil cases involving Hispanic clients.
