Harry is the former President of two Michigan bar associations and a former director of 17 years for Flagstar Bank. He tried many cases in the Michigan courts and argued several appeals in the Michigan Court of Appeals; Michigan Supreme Court and the 6th Circuit Federal Appeals Court in Cincinnati, Ohio. He was lead counsel in a class action lawsuit appeal filed in the United States Supreme Court after ten years of litigation in the state courts.

From 1987 until 2006, Fidelity Title Company, a title insurance agency, insured over 8 Billion Dollars in commercial and residential transactions including by example the construction and the sale of the Grand Tower Office Building in Lansing to the State of Michigan for $43 Million Dollars.
