Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law will teach you as much about law as a cartoon will teach you about the laws of physics. Don't take it too seriously, and you'll have a blast.

A very, very solid and semi-interactive version of the cartoon, Harvey Birdman may be as inept in court as the game's namesake, but all of the humor and interesting takes on classic characters come through just fine.

All in all, Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law is a pretty short game and it's not terribly challenging, but for those who appreciate the humor of the series it's likely to be an enjoyable romp. [Apr 2008, p.84]

IGN
If you're a Harvey Birdman fanatic -- or just a casual fan like myself -- you should probably pick up this game. Sure, it isn't terribly long and it isn't too challenging, but it is a really funny and an engaging play.

GameZone
Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law isn’t the game that will create a resurgence in PS2 gaming. Instead we get a typical point-and-click type of game with a zany cast of characters that will please die-hard fans of the television show.

PSX Extreme
For $30 it's not a bank breaker, and is an acceptable cost, but don't expect anymore than 4-6 hours worth out of the game. Hopefully a sequel offers more bang for the buck.

This game is entertaining, although it contains barely any "real" gameplay. Great for a trip, or a rental on a lazy day.

GameSpot
It nails the show's insanely enjoyable brand of humor, but can't quite pull out a gameplay design to match.

Game Positive
Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law will appeal to fans of the Cartoon Network show, but those not enamored of the humor and art style will probably end up bored.

Harvey Birdman's big problem, however, is length. The five cases will take you a few hours to get through, at best.

A great idea poorly delivered. [Apr 2008, p.70]

Gamer 2.0
Either way, at a measly four hours or less, Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law is barely an okay rental.

Gameplay aside, in a lighthearted adventure like this, the biggest crime is not being consistently funny...an offense of which Harvey Birdman is regrettably guilty.

Pocket Gamer UK
Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law flies in the face of habeus corpus, holding a funny animated series hostage to a smattering of bad jokes and non-existent gameplay.

The mark below is an average of the 10 for the script/animation and the 1 for the game design. If you need more Birdman, you'll suffer to get to the superb stories.

Worth Playing
The problem with Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law for the PSP is that … it isn't a game. It's actually five new episodes of the show, only you occasionally get to make a choice about Harvey's next action.

The game design, however, is just plain bad.

Game Revolution
This just feels like one of those movies where you push a button to decide what scene should come next (and we all know how great those movies are). That’s just not enough to justify what is essentially five slow moving episodes of Harvey Birdman.
