Chandrika Harvath

Attorney

Chandrika Harvath is a former St. Louis prosecutor who now defends people charged with crimes across the St. Louis area.

Chandrika Harvath is an attorney at JMH Law Firm, LLC, where she represents people facing criminal charges in St. Louis and the surrounding counties.

Before joining JMH Law, Chandrika worked on the other side of the courtroom as a prosecutor. She served as an Assistant Circuit Attorney with the St. Louis Circuit Attorney's Office and later as an Assistant Prosecuting Attorney for St. Louis County. She knows how charges are built, how prosecutors weigh a case, and where the evidence can fall short, and she now puts that knowledge to work for the people she defends.

Chandrika came to the law from science. She earned a bachelor's degree in biological sciences from Mount Holyoke College and a master's degree in biology from Washington University in St. Louis before earning her law degree at Saint Louis University School of Law. That background helps her work through cases that turn on lab results, forensic testing or medical records.
