Charges

Simply The Best… that sums up my whole experience with Jeffrey Hark and his team! I was dealing with several legal issues and he took them all on! We called several lawyers, but when we talked to him for the first time, we knew he was the one! He didn’t disappoint! He always reached out and kept me ...informed of every move he made. Kept my mind at ease. I actually went to court today and the outcome left me speechless! I could not believe it! I feel like I got my life back! There are no words that can express my gratitude to Hark & Hark! I could never thank you enough!

Ms. Kenneth: It was truly our pleasure helping you with your numerous professional license and traffic matters. Joe is a terrific attorney with a great calming disposition to traffic cases. I hope you are able to continue on your driving direction and stay healthy and safe! My office tries very hard to provide the best legal services with affordable payment plans in all counties in New Jersey including Atlantic, Camden, Gloucester, Cumberland, Salem, Burlington, Mercer, Ocean, Monmouth, Middlesex, Union, Hunterdon, and all other counties in New Jersey. We handle personal injury matters, workers compensation matters, criminal and municipal court matters through out the state! Please call us if you have any questions about any legal matter as well. Kenneth, Also , thank you for taking the time and writing a review and giving me five stories. Although we’re not done, you realize how difficult the New Jersey Board of Nursing is and how impossible that they can be regarding prior criminal activity, pending traffic activity, and efforts to push people into ramp. We do our best to avoid that for our clients. And clearly we are still working on that for you. I am glad that you realize that the New Jersey boards are boys to all license holders. Yes, they do trick people into signing up for a ramp for the “90 day “initial. And then trick you into another five years that you have to pay for treatment, drug testing, travel, and take time off from work. Yes, they do hold you hostage. Every case is individual and idiosyncratic. I don’t provide any guarantees in every case has to work to the individual facts and circumstances of the licensee. However, I do listen and you are correct. We do work hard to provide the best services for our clients on a payment plan that works so you can sleep at night.

Magnificent Lawyer

My previous lawyer really screwed me over and I was desperate for guidance. Mr. Hark was exactly the guide I needed. He was ruthless in his defense of me, very concise and clear in what was needed, and he did not leave me with any doubts throughout the whole process. Highly recommend. Trust this ...man with all things legal in my life!

Highly Recommended!

I had the privilege of collaborating with Mr. Collis, and I express my sincere gratitude for his exceptional service. He assumed my case amidst an ongoing trial, demonstrating remarkable dedication. Mr. Collis consistently provided comprehensive information and guided me meticulously through every st...age of the process. His exceptional responsiveness ensured that all my queries were promptly addressed, whether through phone calls, emails, or text messages. I never felt uncertain or bewildered about the proceedings, which were handled with utmost sensitivity. Mr. Collis's compassionate and patient demeanor further enhanced my experience. Despite the protracted nature of the case, he remained steadfast in his commitment to achieving a favorable outcome. I highly recommend his services, particularly for individuals seeking an expert who excels in communication, honesty, and integrity. His reasonable approach and expertise have enabled me to regain peace of mind. I extend my deepest appreciation to Mr. Collis for his invaluable assistance.
