James David Hartt

I hired James Hartt to represent me against a government agency for violating my human rights as a female with a disability. I hired him for a second case against my employer for retaliation. Both cases were dismissed as NPC. I have a third retaliation case pending with the NYSDHR and will not ha...ve Mr. Hartt represent me again. He did very little in either case; albeit the minimum required which was basically copying and pasting my written complaint into legal format. He added very little to the fact finding conference that took place failing to point out anything relevant or pertinent to my case. He was inconsistent with his information yet consistent with making excuses each time I had a question or need. Several thousand dollars wasted only to be failed in both cases.

I am very pleased Mr. Hartt represented me through a very stressful and intimidating case. He went above and beyond, keeping me informed throughout the entire process. Mr. Hartt listened to even the smallest question. He returned every phone call promptly. I highly recommend James D. Hartt for an...y workplace issue

I had an issue with my former employer who sent me a settlement agreement. I had never had a issue like this before and needed some legal advice and someone to review the contract. James Hartt returned my call promptly, was very proactive about my timetable and was professional. After reviewing the c...ontract he informed me of all my options. In the process he help me walkthrough the negotiations process to get a higher settlement. His rate in my opinion was fair and I recommend him to anyone having issues with their employer. Even if you just request a constaltation its worth the money.

I called James and talked to him and decided to retain him for my discrimination case. He was very honest about the possibilities with the outcome. There was age discrimination, failed to make reasonable accommodations. He was ver know ya did would hire him again if needed. One bit of advice print ev...erything out before you start make sure you get it off your work email before they block you from it.

I lucked out finding Jim randomly online. Once you realize you might need a lawyer, it’s intimidating and daunting if you don’t know where to start. You worry about pricing, and convincing them to represent you…but after calling around to other law firms and feeling more helpless, I found James and h...e put me at ease right from the start! He listened to my claim and explained exactly why I had a case. His pricing was clear and fair. And basically, Jim guided me through a discrimination claim against my employer that ended in a good settlement without drawing things out any further. I especially love how communicative Jim was through email and text in spite of both our busy lives. He made time to care about me and this case. I’m grateful.
