Posted by Donna | February 17, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Outstanding lawyer

When i first meet representing my husband regarding several traffic and criminal offenses. This was in approximately 2005. Since then he has helped my family, my husband's family, co-workers, friends, and anybody I've met in a doctor's office who was looking for an attorney. Jeff is a very good attor...ney who is also friendly funny helpful and accommodating. Whenever I need to talk to him he's available and his staff is always helpful with any question I may have. I'm writing this review today because we just got done a pretty significant workers compensation case involving my shoulder. Thankfully Jeff sent me to a doctor who was able to find my shoulder problem, diagnosis, and get me treated. I have been complaining for months and months to the workers comp doctors and they were ignoring me. Jeff was the only one that listen to me for months, and vested in me and my case and got me the medical treatment and help I needed. I would recommend mr. Hard to anybody because he really has been extremely helpful for me, aggressive for me, courteous cooperative and a fighter all for me.

Reliable attorney

Jeff is a lawyer that is easy to get a hold of and answers phone calls immediately. His knowledge of the law and quickness of his response made everything go very smoothly with our daughters speeding ticket. Her debacle could have ended in many points and higher insurance rates but instead her reco...rd remained clean and our insurance was not affected. I would highly recommend Jeff for any legal issues you may face.

Client of Mr Hark

Client of Mr. Hark. He worked very diligently with the Prosecuter to not only save my drivers liscence but get all charges totally dismissed. Reviewed my medical records and found out I was not having seiures as first thought but suffered brain injury from previous MVA.

Municipal, Workers Compensation and Criminal cases

Jeff has represented me for the last seven years on numerous Municipal Court matters, Superior Court criminal matters, and two substantial Worker's Compensation cases. Not only did Jeff keep me out of jail on numerous occasions when I was virtually certain to go to State prison, save my drivers li...cense when I was about to lose my license, but he was able to secure much needed medical treatment for my shoulders and neck at a time when I thought I was going to be totally disabled without health insurance. I had a pretty significant workers comp injury quite a few years back when Jeff started representing me in Municipal Court. When we met he asked me why I was having trouble filling out a form during our initial interview. As a result of his one 5 minute discussion and questioning he opened up and handled the Workers Compensation Case resulting in several hundred thousand dollars in medical treatment, temporary disability benefits, and a very substantial permanency award for my shoulders and neck treatment. Jeff always has been and continues to be accessible by phone, text, email, or through his office. He is always professional, assertive, aggressive and responds to my calls immediately. I have recommended him to numerous family members for personal injury and traffic matters. I have mentioned his name to numerous individuals I have met at physical therapy and doctors offices. My family has been very impressed by the individual attention he has given their cases, respect for their privacy and his aggressive efforts on their behalf. I must add that he has never once discussed any aspect of my case and has continually respected my privacy with my family members regardless of who it is and under what circumstances that they are asking. If you are looking for an attorney that will give you the attention and litigation experience you deserve for your case I strongly recommend you call Mr. Hark to sit down and come to your own conclusions after an initial interview. I am confident that you will walk away excited and looking forward to the benefits of an aggressive, professional, thorough attorney to help you with your case.

"I have known Jeffrey Hark for over twenty years and he is one of the top attorneys in South Jersey. Any client of mine that has a criminal or personal injury matter in South Jersey is referred to Mr. Hark. And, I always get positive feedback regarding his representation. Whether it's protecting the constitutional rights of the criminally-accused or seeking compensation for someone injured due to the negligence of another, I know that Jeffrey Hark is the zealous advocate you want standing next to you in the courtroom.
