Experience: Personal Injury & Trial Presentations
Harrison Shiels was born and raised in West Bloomfield, Michigan, by a determined single mother. His journey into law began early, influenced by his grandfather, Casey, and a family deeply rooted in the legal profession. Despite initial reservations, Harrison attended Brother Rice, an all-boys Catholic high school, where discipline and academic rigor were paramount—a decision guided by his grandfather's insistence.
Immersed in a family where discussions of law were the norm, Harrison's passion for justice was nurtured from a young age. He often accompanied his relatives, including three uncles and an aunt, to court, gaining first-hand insight into the legal world.
After graduating high school, Harrison pursued his undergraduate degree at the University of Michigan. Summers were spent in Los Angeles, working alongside his uncle, Daniel Ambrose, to help build Trial Lawyers University, an experience that solidified his commitment to the legal field.
In 2023, Harrison earned his law degree from Southwestern Law School in Los Angeles, where he honed his trial presentation skills and actively participated in legal seminars and conferences. During this time, he also founded Foresight Focus Groups, a pioneering mock jury recruiting service designed to assist trial lawyers in refining their courtroom strategies.
Outside of his legal career, Harrison is a passionate DJ and music producer and stays active through regular exercise, balancing his professional ambitions with creative and physical pursuits.
