About Richard
Biography
For the professional, I counsel Pennsylvania doctors, pharmacists, nurses, and all other licensees facing disciplinary actions before Pennsylvania's twenty six different state regulatory boards. My clients live both in and outside Pennsylvania and face disciplinary actions against their Pennsylvania professional license. My website and blogs discuss my professional license defense strategies. From criminal convictions that affect a license to work place employment investigations and client based complaints to the licensing boards, I handle all types of disciplinary actions. In this age of hightened scrutiny of all professionals regarding their personal or professional conduct, Pennsylvania's licensing Boards take any complaint or behavioral misteps seriously. Please visit my web site and blogs at .
I also represent individuals in a wide variety of criminal prosecutions. My experience includes defending clients in state and federal grand jury proceedings, perjury and obstruction charges, health care and tax fraud claims, robbery and drug related crimes, gun violence cases, and computer and internet crimes. I counsel clients in connection with grand jury investigations and prosecutions by the U.S. Department of Justice and various U.S. Attorney’s offices across the country, and the Pennsylvania and New Jersey offices of the Attorney General.

Awesome!!!
I am an LPN that was recently charged with a DUI. I was shocked to receive a letter from PNAP regarding the VRP. After receiving advice from a friend not to respond to the letter and to seek legal counsel I contacted Richard Hark. From our very first conversation, I was confident that he was the ri...

Richard Hark
Replied last November 01, 2017This client, similar to many others recently, was confronted with a licensing matter after completing nursing school. Extensive loans, job, and life pressures made a successful result really important. After some very hard work, diligent client communication and preparation, and a very complex hearing, WE had a great result. I say WE because I never win. It is always WE win. In this instance, the client and her family won. I could not have helped them as much as I did without their help and preparation. Together, WE won!.... Always excited to help, confront the challenge, and surpass everyone's expectations. Thanks for letting me help.

Great outcome for case
I am so grateful for Richard's help throughout my case. My case took almost two full years to be resolved and the end result could not have been better. He always attempted to put me at ease and told me not to worry. I trusted him and his expertise and was right to do so. Could not have done it witho...
Richard Quinton Hark's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have known Richard Hark for years and he is an outstanding attorney. While he handled criminal defense matters for many years, he has shifted his practice focus to administrative law where he assists professionals (nurses, doctors, lawyers, etc) when they are being disciplined by their respective licensing board. This is usually as a result of contacts with the criminal justice system or drug/alcohol problems. Despite the shift in practice, the outcomes are the same. I have seen him successfully fight the most serious criminal charges and I now refer professional clients to him when their criminal case overlaps with their professional license. He has become extremely skilled in a very sensitive area where clients' livelihoods are on the line. This is no easy task but Richard's combination of legal smarts, common sense, and empathy for his client's plight make him a perfect fit. I strongly endorse Mr. Hark."
"I endorse this lawyer. Knowledgeable on board defense matters for licensed health care professionals."
"I strongly endorse this lawyer."
"Richard is an excellent attorney with real courtroom experience"
"I recently referred a complicated criminal defense matter to Mr. Hark. He handled the case with a high degree of professionalism and was able to secure an excellent result."
"Rich is a fierce advocate for his clients. Hei s well known in every court and highly regarded."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have worked with Rich on many cases over the past 20 years. He is a straight-shooter and is honest with his clients. I trust him enough that I have referred dozens of my clients to him for assistance with various types of matters including criminal defense."
