Kansas City Attorney Launches Woman-Owned Firm
Harrah Law Employs Entrepreneurial Spirit to Bring Large Firm Experience at a Value
KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 23, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Legal veteran Desarae Harrah has founded a new Kansas City firm, Harrah Law. With an extensive background in litigation, Harrah launched the firm to provide clients the level of experience and quality representation expected of a larger firm at a significant value. And after more than a decade practicing at traditionally modeled mid-size firms, she saw an opportunity to pursue her deep-rooted entrepreneurial ambition.
"I come from a family of entrepreneurs and that was always something I wanted for myself," said Harrah.
"That aspiration was amplified watching the city foster a strong entrepreneurial environment since I moved downtown 15 years ago."
Harrah brings substantial experience in real estate law to her new firm. She represents both sides of real estate disputes with clients ranging from developers and builders to owners, landlords, commercial tenants, real estate investors, real estate management companies, lenders and contractors.
Her reputable real estate practice and the firm's pioneering spirit has extended to the development of a robust construction practice – an industry where women have historically been underrepresented. According to the National Association of Women in Construction while the number of women working in the industry is on the rise, they make up only 9.1 percent of the workforce.
"When I started representing construction companies, I saw the need for gender diversity and wanted to support that growth. When starting my own firm, I wanted to focus on offering industry experience and a diverse option as a woman-owned business to construction companies and contractors selecting outside counsel."
Whether drafting contracts or enforcing them, Harrah Law helps general contractors, subcontractors, material suppliers and property owners with all of their litigation needs, including construction defect, contract dispute, lien enforcement and collection.
In addition to the real estate and construction practices the firm represents individuals and businesses on a variety of matters, including business disputes, creditor rights, arbitration and mediation.
