About Us

  • About Us Welcome to Harris and Helwig, PA. The law firm of Harris and Helwig was founded by Suzanne Harris in 1995 as a solo practice. It currently consists of three attorneys with a total of more than 60 years of legal experience. The firm has emphasized Social Security and Employment Discrimination cases throughout its history, and that work continues to be the core of our practice. Harris and Helwig has continuously served clients from its offices at Christina Cove Office Park at 6700 South Florida Avenue in Lakeland since 1995. We are just north of the Shepherd Road intersection with South Florida Avenue, as shown on the map on our contact page. Our offices are handicapped-accessible and provide free parking right outside our door. Through our diverse legal and support staff, we can communicate in English and Spanish. If you call us on the telephone, you will talk to a live human being who actually works here, and not to an automated recording or a call center. The legal staff of Harris and Helwig comes from a background in public service and representation of people who have been disenfranchised, discriminated against, or disabled. That commitment has been carried forward in our effort to make Harris & Helwig a place where representation is provided to all clients with meritorious Social Security and employment claims, without regard to their ability to pay a legal fee.
