Best attorney in South Jersey for any personal, Andry, and workers compensation case

Jefry Hart represented me for a car crash and a workers compensation case. He did an amazing job. Not only did I get money in the car crash. I also got money in the workers comp part of the case. I do not have to pay back the workers comp people either. We started this about about eight months ago. A...nd he did an amazing job. Everyone of the reviews below is accurate. Otherwise, I would’ve fired him immediately. I read a lot of reviews, and I write a lot of reviews, and I’m always very skeptical of what people say. I think a lot of them are fake. However, I read all of these reviews before I hired Mr. Hark, and they are 100% actor. His staff is on top of Everything, I am always informed that return, he communicates with me, and my family about everything and wants to make sure we understand everything. Every time there’s a significant decision to make. He has us come into the office and talk to me and my wife together, so we can make an educated decision. He did amazing job for us and I would absolutely recommend him to anybody.

THE MAN

Mr. Hark just said on a car crash case for me. He did this in less than 12 months from the date of the crash. An amazing job by him and his staff. I always knew what was going on, he worked with my doctors, and got a fabulous quick result. I would highly recommend him. I wish I could give him his sta...ff more than five stars. They deserve it. They’re amazing. The only people more amazing that Mr. Hark are my family. I love them so much and I love that they brought me to Mr. Hart

If you want a lawyer who is in your corner

Jeffrey Hark took on my son’s case (he was a passenger in a car hit by a 3-time drunk driver) shortly after when my son’s original lawyer bid him adieu in a form letter – two days shy of the two-year date of first taking on the case. After receiving the “it’s been swell” I forwarded your ...case to the court letter from lawyer #1, we had no idea how to proceed. We were like a deer in headlights, a chicken without a head, an ostrich with its head stuck in a hole --- you get the general gist. We seriously thought we were at the end of the road. Jeffrey Hark has been playing catch up on my son’s case since signing on in 2009. Trust me, when I say this is not an understatement. The case has had so many ups and downs; and missed opportunities that I was sure that when my son said we had to meet this really “hard-assed” (my son’s exact words) lawyer who said he would take on his case; my husband and I were like “okay we’ll meet him” and tried to temper our kid’s regenerated belief that maybe the good guy will prevail after all mentality with some realism and (hard earned) skepticism. Jeffrey Hark took on my son’s case even after my husband basically insulted Mr. Hark’s choice of career during our initial “let’s meet the folks” meeting. He took on this case even after realizing he had a client (who because of serious injuries) came with his very own personal assistant/full-time advocate/part-time muscle/Mom. As a family, we have been dealing with this case and everything it entails since 2007. We had just about given up hope of ever seeing it end. When Jeffrey Hark came on board in 2009, we started believing that maybe just maybe as our son said “the good guy will prevail after all.” If you want someone in your corner who will answer your phone calls, doesn’t mind an email every week or so, has your best interest at heart, points you in the right direction and expects you to get your ass in gear and do what needs to be done to get your case moving then make a call to the law office of Hark & Hark and ask for Jeffrey Hark. P.S.: The office staff at Hark and Hark is courteous and extremely helpful (especially Terri)
