About
I have over eighteen years of experience litigating complex legal matters. As a litigation attorney for the family law division at Whitfield & Eddy Law Firm, I currently focus my practice on litigating family law matters, including dissolution of marriage, custody, spousal support, domestic abuse, grandparent visitation, guardianship, termination of parental rights and adoption cases. I received my Bachelor of Business Administration in Business Management with honors from Baylor University in 1996. In 1999, I graduated from Drake University Law School. Shortly after graduation I moved to Dallas and was admitted to the Texas bar. I worked as an Assistant District Attorney with the Dallas County District Attorney’s Office prosecuting domestic abuse, operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated, assault, robbery and felony narcotics cases until 2003 when I left to become a solo practitioner and focus my practice on family law matters in the Juvenile and Family Law Courts. I moved back to Iowa and joined Iowa Legal Aid in 2008 as a staff attorney. I represented victims of domestic violence as part of the Women’s Equal Justice Project and as the Violence Against Women’s Act attorney during my time at Iowa Legal Aid.It is an honor to practice law and help my clients navigate through extremely difficult circumstances. I consider it a privilege that clients trust me to zealously advocate for their best interests and the best interests of their loved ones.

Danni went above and beyond in my divorce. Always was up front and explained things in great detail. You won't go wrong with this excellent lawyer.
Danni Harris is an excellent lawyer. She was responsive to my questions and explained the divorce process thoroughly. Danni was empathetic and compassionate regarding the sensitive nature of divorce, however, she was a strong advocate regarding important matters. I would recommend Danni to all friends and family.
Danni was always available for questions or concerns. She walked us through the guardianship process and assisted in making it a voluntary guardianship from the parents care to mine. Always had the best interests of our two year old and two month old grandsons as the first priority. I would recommend Danni to anyone searching for help with family matters.
Danni is the best attorney I could ever have!! About 7 to 8 years ago she won my child custody and divorce case! Now she also took care of child custody/child support case! Danni is a blessing to my family and her phenomenal work she does in and outside the courtroom! She’s also honest and there for you!!! Danni is someone you want to have in your corner in hard times!!
Danni handled my divorce. It drug out much longer than I had anticipated. We ended up in court. Danni prepared me for court so there were no surprises. We discussed the points we wanted to make in court ahead of time. She was also familiar with my ex's lawyer and could give me a heads up on what to expect from him. Danni is very professional in the courtroom as well. The proposal that she sent to the judge was professionally and factually, written. She got her (our) points across in a mature, reasonable manner.
I crashed my car on ice last winter and received a ticket for wreckless driving. Danni Harris was able to fight the ticket and had it taken off my record. It was a quick and easy process, all I had to do was show up on my court date.
Danni displayed unparalleled experience and knowledge handling a delicate, but deliberate 20 year separation. Her passion and devotion to my personal crisis greatly contributed to a justifiable outcome. A true professional in every aspect!
Ms. Harris did an amazing job at making this legal issue not last forever. She did a great job at keeping us up-to-date on the changes. She was pleasant and easy to work with. I would recommend her legal assistance.
I contacted Hope Law Firm and was referred to Danni Harris. My husband and I had a consult with her the next day. Our guardianship case was settled very quickly and effortlessly. We were very happy we chose this law firm
Danni is (in simple words) a person who will fight for what is best for you (and your children). She is easy to work with, and goes the extra mile to guide and support her clients through the difficult times divorce can bring. She places the needs of her clients first. She is very knowledgable and adept at explaining in detail everything that is going on and what could happen.
