James David Hartt

I used mr hart make sherry to never send him the payment till he sends copies of agreement because on phones mr hart will make it sound like he represents you to the end but only does the litigation part not any of the. In court part for the $2500 it is another $5000 after the litigat...ion an dose not do the appeals after the phone conference don't no. If this is his line with every one but he did the ur in the 10percent that do have a case

Had this attorney stand as a legal tool for me, only to learn he is unskilled and ill-prepared for serious cases. After this attorney charged thousands of dollars, I had learned that he was out-sourcing his official responsibilities and this was another factor in realizing I had made the Wrong Choice... in selecting him for service.

Mr. Hartt apologized to me REPEATEDLY for his poor performance- Mr. Hartt apologized to me for failing to return numerous phone calls and emails from me, which led to increased stress for me with no information on the status of my case or feedback. After agreeing to represent me at the unemploymen...t hearing, first in person and then by telephone, Mr. Hartt made excuses for failing to show up for my unemployment hearing, and apologized for failing to make any arrangements with the judge/hearing officer to attend telephonically--which angered the judge who threatened another postponement of my case. Mr. Hartt also apologized to me for failing to prepare my expert witness properly in advance, resulting in the witness angrily remarking that my own preparation of him exceeded the preparation of his testimony by Attorney Hartt. When speaking to me about my attempts to get an update on the status of the case from him, my opinion was that his primary concern was for preserving his relationships with the Division staff, and whether my inquiries to the Division--which were made because of his lack of response to my calls & emails--had impacted his relationship with them. In summary, I am not impressed by an attorney who has disappointed me in the areas of client responsiveness, and witness preparation, and task follow-through, and keeping me informed, who then offers excuses and apologies while asking for more/repeat business...I think not!

I had a hearing with my employer, and U.S.Equal Employment Opportunity. I paid Mr. Hartt, $1,000.00. I was more prepared, than Mr. Hartt. I lost money. I would have been, to go, to the hearing by myself !! Mr. Hartt, didn't advise me, in anyway. I was 62 years old, and lost my job, because of ...my age. I was the oldest person, working for that company. I worked there, for 1 and a-half years. I did not get my job back, or any health benefits. Then, the recession started. My life has been hell, after that. I thought, I would be working, at that company, until, I became 65. I thought Also, that I had a good attorney.
