  • Notes 
    • Maurice Edward Harrison, American lawyer Decorated Officer Legion of Honor. Member California Code Commission, 1929-1932; member United States Constitution Sesquicentennial Commission, 1935-1939; member Alien Enemy Hearing Board, 1942-1943. Regent University of California since 1944. Member Bar Association of San Francisco (president 1929-1930).

      Maurice E. Harrison, who is the oldest of the children born to his parents, attended the grade and high schools of San Francisco and received his more advanced intellectual training in the University of California at Berkeley, from which he was graduated with the Bachelor of Arts degree in 1908. He pursued the study of law in the same institution, and received the degree of Doctor of Jurisprudence in 1910. Then he became associated with his father in the practice under the firm name of Edward C. and M. E. Harrison. When the partnership was dissolved by the death of the senior member, he formed an alliance with his brother Gregory A. Harrison, as Harrison & Harrison. This was maintained until January 1, 1925, at which time he assumed a new affiliation which was known as Dunne, Brobeck, Phleger & Harrison. In 1926, the present firm of Brobeck, Phleger & Harrison was created, with offices in the Crocker building at 620 Market Street. They specialized to a great extent in corporation law, but also conducted much civil litigation.
