James David Hartt

I hired James Hartt to handle my unfair dismissal from Utica College's accelerated nursing program. The program's utter lack of organization and professionalism led to my needing to take legal action against the school. He assisted in writing my pre-litigation mandate which he has his office deliver.... When the school delayed in their response, he contacted the appropriate faculty to provide a sense of urgency that prompted the school to finally take the case seriously. Finally he spoke to the school's outside counsel, upon whose recommendation the school reinstated me. I cannot thank James Hartt enough for all his help throughout my frustrating ordeal and ensuring the best outcome in the end!

We hired James to represent our daughter in a sexual harassment case with her supervisor. The initial meeting required a large fee to begin. After paid, James did not return our daughter's calls in a prompt manner. The day of the hearing, James was in Canada, and our daughter had to text James thr...oughout the hearing as it was a "telephone hearing" with both parties involved. After a 4 hour hearing we were convinced the state investigator found probable cause, as so did James. Our daughter received a TEXT from James stating the outcome....the state DID NOT find probable cause, and James "was not available to speak to our daughter until 2 days later." James then proceeded to tell her that he would represent our daughter in federal court with a 5000.00 deposit! Until she made the decision not to go forward with James, he contacted her continually asking if she would like him to represent her. He also stated that he didn't want to tell our daughter he didn't have a lot of confidence in the state investigator that conducted the hearing.....this was after we received the results! Our daughter worked as an advocate for a victim's agency and this was the result!

James helped me in a settlement case with my former employer. He was honest and up front about the cost and what I should and shouldn't ask for. He was professional and settled my case within a week's time. He always responded in a timely fashion and was easy to work with. Thank you Jamie for al...l of your help and dedication to your clients! I highly recommend James if you're seeking legal advice in his area of expertise.
