Richard Quinton Hark

I contacted Richard after learning that my professional physical therapy license may be in jeopardy, and I am certainly glad I did! Richard is prompt in his responses, clear in his communication of the plan, and was very encouraging for a positive outcome on the case during a very stressful time. H...is experience in these situations was clear, as he knew exactly what to expect at each turn. To further complicate the situation, I was then living out of state, but still trying to protect my PA license should I need to return to the state to practice. Richard took the time to understand the nuances of my situation, was available to answer questions as they arose, & provided sound advice throughout, until we received a positive outcome! I highly recommend Richard for any issues pertaining to your professional license!

It was completely by chance that I stumbled upon Richard’s article about the “tricks and traps” related to the PA state professional boards. I had already been cooperating with the SW Board for 6 months by the time I contacted Richard and without expert representation I was faced with a 3-year monit...oring program for drugs and alcohol despite my full cooperation with the Board and no evidence of any impairment in my professional career. I was completely lost and at the mercy of the SW Board, but thankfully that all changed once I contacted Richard and he started representing me. With his knowledge, experience, and expertise with the PA SW Board, Richard was able to successfully overcome some of the misinformed decisions I had made prior to having representation. Almost immediately communication with the Board’s attorney improved, the process seemed to move smoother, my options were much clearer thanks to Richard’s guidance, and I was no longer at the mercy of the SW Board. Richard’s knowledge of the process and relationships with key decision makers were crucial in getting the best possible outcome in my case. The charges of impairment were dropped and my case closed without further action which is a drastic improvement from the outcome that would have occurred if I would not have had Richard representing me in this process. Any licensed professional who is unfortunately in danger of having action taken against them by a PA licensing board should immediately contact Richard to get the best possible counsel and protect your interest. I promise you will be happy that you did.

I was unfortunately involved in a workplace incident that triggered a referral to substance abuse program and even worse, an investigation by one of the state’s administrative boards into my physical and psychological well-being to practice. From my first call, Richard took the time to get to know me... as a person and professional. He explained the entire investigatory process from start to finish and exactly what I needed to do to ensure the best possible outcome. He was able to help me develop a very reasonable payment plan- which was one one of my biggest fears because I was out of work. He and his office staff worked closely with me for months through one of the most trying times of my life. Throughout the process he and his staff would not only check in on me, but helped me get all my necessary documents in order, and personally prepared me for interviews, hearings etc. Richard also personally attended these with me and was able to put my mind at ease. Richard and his staff are incredible at their work. They care about healthcare providers and I would, without reservation, recommend him to anyone facing action against their license.

I'm a registered nurse in Pennsylvania, I found myself in the unfortunate situation of being charged with a DUI. I've never broken any law prior, not even a ticket. It did make a poor decision one night, I'm not going to say I didn't. Believe it or not, nurses are human too. The fear of that one mist...ake destroying my career was terrifying. Attorney Hark was recommended to me by a friend, and once I hired him I felt so much relief. He is knowledgeable, professional, and has proven outcomes. He prepared me for every potential situation. Attorney Hark and his assistant Jessica are amazing. If you are reading this, you are likely in my same shoes. Do not hesitate to hire Attorney Hark. My case with the board of nursing was closed successfully. I don't know if I would have had that outcome was any other attorney.
